Private - Best of Venice with Doge's Palace

Enjoy this voyage of enlightenment through the labyrinth of back alleys and sleepy canals to have a full introduction to the most iconic city in the world: Venezia.

You will be crossing delicate bridges, admiring meandering canals, stopping at lovely small squares, and being entertained by the commentary of your expert private guide as you relive the days of the Venetian Republic and the colorful characters that called this city home. Then you will visit the famous Doge's Palace, to appreciate the unique Venetian political form of government that helped this rich maritime Republic to become one of the most enlightened cities in the world. Hear tales of the infamous "Council of Ten" who used extreme measures to maintain order in the city, and learn about the role played by the Doge in Venetian society.

The guide will also take you through damp prisons, as the Doge’s Palace was also where justice was administered and where the city’s terrible prisons were to be found. Inside the Doge's Palace see “the mouth for secret accusations“, where even for a single anonymous accusation a person could be arrested and judged by the most feared tribunal of the city: The Council of Ten!
