About this experience

The PALAZZO DUCALE represented for centuries the seat of the Venetian political power. Nowadays it stands smart and enticing as an eye-catcher for visitors. In its splendid rooms, plastered and packed with literally hundreds of masterpieces of paintings, the Duke and his Council controlled the fate of a thousand-year republic. You will live it together with our local guide who will show you the halls of power, plunging you into the past of the European Middle Ages and the following centuries. You can breathe and see the history of a city that made history. You’ll be surprised by the rich details of the gold staircase, and of the realism of the scenes depicted by many artists who have decorated this building. Finally, relive the anguish of the prisoners crossing the famous BRIDGE OF SIGHS, and entering the Venetian prisons, famous for “hosting” among others Giacomo Casanova. This is an unforgettable tour that should not to be missed!
