You will admire the St. Mark’s Basilica, surely the most impressive church in Venice, where you will learn more about the history of its construction and the reason why St. Mark became the patron saint of Venice.
Next, you will bypass all the lines as you visit the Doge’s Palace, the residence of the supreme authority in the town during the era of the Venetian Republic. Here, you will visit the Giants’ Staircases, the Chamber of the Great Council and the Golden staircase, as well as its loggias and the “bocche di leone” (“lions’ mouths”), or jails. Then there is the Armoury, numerous beautiful halls, the New Prisons, and of course the Bridge of Sights, connecting the rooms were Venetian prisoners were interrogated.
You will play games and engage in a number of activities while your kids will be fully entertained while learning about the history of Venice!

About Venice
Venice floats on a lagoon of more than a hundred islands, a city of canals, palaces and bridges with no cars, where every walk ends somewhere unexpected.
The Grand Canal sweeps through the city in a great reversed S, lined with palaces and crossed by the Rialto Bridge. Near its mouth, Piazza San Marco gathers St Mark's Basilica with its golden mosaics, the Doge's Palace, the Bridge of Sighs and the tall brick campanile. Water buses and gondolas show the city from the angle it was built to be seen.
Top-ranked sights in Venice: St. Mark's Square (Piazza San Marco), St. Mark's Basilica (Basilica di San Marco), Grand Canal.
