Venice Saint Mark's Basilica Guided Tour With Doge Palace Options

Barbara was great! She was very knowledgeable and attentive as went progressed through the church. Would certainly take her tour again!

The audio was very clear and lots of good information

Terrible service by Crown Tours. We booked via one of the 3rd party platform they affiliate with. The platform did not charge one of our children correctly and they did not even try to find a solution. They only came to us to tell us that the child cannot go in. They didn't even wait for us to resolve our problem with their 3rd party supplier. They have been rude from the begining of their interaction. The guides clearly hate their jobs, they are stiff and totally anti-touristic. Terrible service. AVOID AT ALL COSTS. There are way more professional companies than these people.

Excellent experience! Great communication. Fantastic tour guide. Lasted about 1.5 hours. English available. Would highly recommend.

The tour was well organised and the guide was excellent. The skip the line was worth it as the whole St Marks area is super busy. The headsets were good and we could hear the explanations provided.

St. Mark’s is worth getting priority tickets for as it is always busy in Venice apparently and the lineups for those without tickets was really long. We enjoyed our visit there and would recommend it to Venice travellers.

Our guided tour of St Mark’s basilica and Dodge’s Palace was spectacular — my partner and I agreed it was the highlight of our trip to Venice. Our guide, Adriana, was so knowledgeable, experienced and fun to be with. We highly recommend!

The basilica was ornated and beautiful. However, we couldn’t get in on time since the guide had the wrong tickets. I was the only one to get in right away, and the rest of the group got in 20 minutes later. They had to wait for the guide to be emailed the right tickets. Waste of time and money. Save your money and buy your own tickets.

Actually didn’t take San Marco tour couldn’t make it due to a glitch on our cruise so we disembarked late There were no later tours I was given no refund although those were the rules 24 hrs ahead to cancel booking I thought I should have refund due to circumstances Wasn’t offered a future tour But rules are rules I guess

Priority access is not the same as skip the line tickets. On top of that we had to wait in the regular queue due to high water levels in the square. Due to late start we were rushed through the basilica passing by regular ticket holders who had the chance to enjoy the inside beauty. The experience is worth it but consider another tour with priority tickets.

I highly recommend booking this tour! We booked this tour upon arriving to Venice, it was super quick and easy to book. The guide and staff were supper friendly and helpful.

I highly🔝recommend 👑Crown Tours Team for their outstanding service and expertise.

Whether you're exploring historic landmarks or discovering hidden gems 💎 , you can trust them to provide an exceptional travel experience.✨

What a great experience! We spent a fantastic morning in Piazza San Marco and as soon as we got into the Basilica we where overwhelmed by the magnificence of all this wonderful art. The guide was very professional and entertaining, and the guys from crown tours perfect ;)

This tour definitely made our trip even more memorable! I've done many tours in my life but this was definitely one of the best ones! Our guide Marco was incredible, gave us so many historical facts and was very engaging with the group.

I did the tour with crown tours and they were really nice and helpful (grazie Lucia) and it was overall an amazing experience. The tour was super informative and I learned a lot about Venice and its history, I would definitely recommend it!

It was our first visit in Venice and we had our tickets with Crown tours, it was very easy to find the coordinators and we met lovely Cherie and we entered directly very easily. It was an amazing experience. I definitely recommend them.

Lucia, Cherie, and Migo were incredibly kind, professional, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to meet. I recommend Crown Tours for a wonderful and educational experience!

We had a fantastic meeting with Migo at at Marks Square. What a lovely guy and a beautiful tour. My family were beyond happy. Thank you!

This company is dishonest. We paid 130 € for the visit to 2 of St. Mark's Basilica with the option Pala d'Oro... The day before we receive an email to tell us that finally with our tickets we can not access the Pala d'Oro (probably we did not pay enough!) but that we will be refunded the difference. On the day of the visit we are given 2 tickets for 24 € for the visit (without the Pala d'Oro therefore). I just received a refund of the difference from Crown Tours: 40 € !!! If at least one customer can avoid being scammed in the future following this warning, I will be satisfied. Run away from this company.

I do not understand the positive comments This is a scam! And it is not a wire cutter at all. We had an appointment at 9:45 with crown. At 10:00, the purple shirt finally arrives. We waited 50 minutes under the sun, nothing was happening. Our guide was waiting (but what we don't know...) We decided, like other members of the group, to go back into the church by ourselves and repay. We signed the scam to get your guide.

Terrible experience. Unprepared guides do not even know the language at the entrance provide us with the wrong ticket and despite having paid HANDSOME R WELL IN ADVANCE do not allow us to visit the terrace a real shame unable

At the last minute they changed the meeting point with the guide, who was supposed to give me the entrance tickets to the Basilica, without making sure that I was aware. DO NOT RELY ON THIS AGENCY! THEY'RE STEALING YOUR MONEY! Buy on the official website of the Basilica which also cost much less.

Despite a big mistake on our part on the booking date, the team on site in Venice managed to get us tickets for the tour and we were able to enjoy the Basilica of San Marco. Thanks again to them for the responsiveness!
