Experience Highlights

Are you planning a trip to Venice and don't know where to start? Then we recommend this entrance ticket to the Doge's Palace to dive straight into the heart of historic Venice. With your skip-the-line ticket, you'll be able to explore one of the city's most iconic buildings. Located in St. Mark's Square, the Doge's Palace is an artistic treasure trove that houses masterpieces by Titian and Tintoretto.

Inside there is plenty to see: you will walk along the famous Bridge of Sighs, enter the Armoury and see the halls of Government and Justice, the Doge's flats and the spectacular Scala d'Oro. This building is not only a symbol of Venice, but also the former residence of the Doges, the highest rulers of the city.

The experience also includes access to the Archaeological Museum, the Correr Museum and the Marciana National Library. These three spaces are separate from the Doge's Palace but within the museum complex around St Mark's Square and you can explore them within three days of the date you've booked.

Discover the must-see:

  • Doge's Palace of Venice: A majestic Gothic building, home to the Doge, the city's historic leader.
  • Bridge of Sighs, Armoury and Scala d'Oro: Access these places full of history and artistic wonders.
  • Works by Titian and Tintoretto: Admire Renaissance art in all its splendour and relive the history of the Republic of Venice.
  • Take advantage of this combined ticket to do the complete tour of the St. Mark's Square museums. You have included access to the Archaeological Museum, Correr Museum and the Marciana National Library on the same day or 3 days after the date booked for the Doge's Palace.

Imagine exploring the Doge's Palace in Venice without queuing up, like a VIP! Right in the middle of St Mark's Square, this Gothic palace was home to the Doge, the city's great chieftain, for centuries. Not only is it a spectacular building, it's also a treasure trove of art with jaw-dropping works by Titian and Tintoretto .

Inside you can see the Halls of Government and Justice, the Doge's flats and the impressive Scala d'Oro. Not forgetting the Bridge of Sighs, where prisoners breathed their last breaths of freedom, the impressive Armoury with its collection of weapons, and the elegant Correr Museum.

But wait, there's more! Your ticket opens the door to a complete tour of Venetian cultural heritage around St. Mark's Square: from the Archaeological Museum, where Greek and Roman sculptures will transport you to another era, to the Marciana National Library, a place full of ancient wisdom. Together with the Correr Museum, all three are part of the museum complex around the Doge's Palace and you can visit them on the same day or up to three days after the date you have booked at the entrance.

Here's what awaits you:

    Definitely to enter the Doge's Palace you must buy tickets in advance, getting them there is practically impossible. The access was easy and the palace extraordinary.

    The ducal palace, as well as the other well-known places in Venice, tends to fill up with people very easily and quickly, so going through the fast lane was the best way to go.
