Meet your guide at St. Mark’s Square for an after-hours visit to St. Mark’s Basilica. Listen to stories about Venice and St. Mark’s history, including how the basilica acquired its relics through a 9th-century event.

Watch a custodian unlock the basilica’s doors for you to enter. Instead of crowded spaces and noise, walk through the basilica in peace. Explore areas usually closed during the day, such as the crypt believed to hold St. Mark’s bones. Notice the walls marked by past floods that affected Venice. This unique access allows you to see parts of the basilica that visitors miss during the day.

If the local municipality restricts access due to high tide and there are no walkways available, it is the client’s responsibility to bring appropriate footwear (e.g., boots). The guide will modify the itinerary to include alternate dry paths whenever possible.
Large bags and backpacks cannot be brought into St. Mark's Basilica
