I enjoyed hearing information about the Basilica, artwork, artifacts, and town history. It was much more than I would’ve been able to learn walking around on my own. I was grateful to hear it from someone who is from Venice.
Great tour guide. Despite skip-the-line tix we had to wait in line to get in and then another line to go to the exterior terrace/balcony. These lines for the stl tix is because there were soooo many tourists. I’d get the tix again!
The trip guide - she was truly excellent. The guy in the office checking us in for the tour - extremely rude. Won't repeat. He ruined the experience for us.
What a wonderful experience- a must if you visit Venice. Avoiding the normal queue, but you will queue inside (especially on peak dates) to go up to the museum and balcony, but its worth the wait for the astonishing views across the square.
Head sets for 2 of 4 in my group did not work well. It also wasn’t much of a tour. No access to cathedral floor. The climb to the top did not require a tour guide.
