This small-group guided tour takes you inside the Doge's Palace, the heart of power in the Republic of Venice. The palace is connected to the prison cells by the Bridge of Sighs—a chilling name that evokes the final breath you take as you see beautiful Venice for the last time.
After strolling through the courtyard, admiring the first-class views of the Gothic exterior, head inside to marvel at the Golden Staircase. Your guide will share stories about the Doge and his role in Venice's political system.
Take a photo of Tintoretto's Paradiso in the Great Council Chamber, see the weapons in the Armory, and stroll through the Doge's Apartments.
Then, take an eerie stroll across the Bridge of Sighs. Follow your guide to the dark prison cells. These prisons were among the most secure in the world, but there's Casanova's legendary escape. He dared to cut a hole in the cell's ceiling and emerged free to tell the tale. Notes: - Not wheelchair accessible.
