Once we figured out where to get the tickets, it was easy. Make sure you arrive early enough to get the tickets and then walk to the Palace. The Palace is absolutely incredible, what a wonderful experience!

Initially seemed a little disorganised but once we got to Doges Palace and linked with our guide it was amazing. She spoke clearly and gave lots of interesting and relevant information as well as showing a GSOH. We were on the tour for over 1.5 hours and the rooms were incredible.

Lots of rooms and paintings. Enjoyed a tour at our own pace and used the guide to look up items of interest where we wanted more explanation. Perhaps a guide could have given more details but we didn’t want to spend 3 hours analyzing every room/painting. And hour of walking through and admiring was enough for us.
