Our guide Mose was excellent, he was very knowledgeable and we learnt lots about Venice and St Marks that we probably wouldn’t have picked up otherwise. Entrance to the Basilica was quick and easy avoiding all the queues and our gondola ride was the perfect finish to a lovely day.

A magnificent gateway in time. Remember to take a cable if you rent an audio guide And warm clothing in winter because the rooms are not heated.

Very good value for money. It allows you to visit a large number of museums and churches and thus to go around Venice. I recommend

Only downside you have to get the tickets at the station near St Mark's Square A single pass would have been better

A great experience, the great guide and we have met other travelers
