Traveler reviews
Basilica night tour
Outstanding tour from Shannon! So informative!
St. Mark's at night is the way to go!
This was the best tour of our several week trip through Europe, and is definitely the way to see St. Mark's! Shannon was an amazing tour guide and was both knowledgeable and personable. This tour gave us access to St Mark's Square at night after it had closed, with them opening the doors just for these tours. They turned on all the lights and we had access to all areas of the church (including the downstairs area that is not accessible at all during the day when it's open. Having the entire cathedral to ourselves with no crowds allowed Shannon to show us everything.
amazing tour
Nico was an amazing tour guide, you can tell he loves talking with folks, loves his job and loves to share his knowledge of history with everyone.
