This is an incredible exclusive After-Hours Semi-Private Tour of Saint Mark's Basilica, after the Basilica has officially closed to the general public. The crowds will have gone, and the custodians will have closed the entry doors to the rest of the tourists, except for you. The doors will reopen exclusively for this privileged access tour, that will leave you as the only witnesses of the Golden Church of Venice in the magic of night. With our guarantee of just 6 people per group, a professional expert guide will lead you on an incredible intimate journey through the magic of the Basilica as evening has fallen and it is only for your eyes to witness. In the quiet of night, its incredible splendour will shine as the thousands of square feet of golden mosaics will light up in an astounding light show. Again, only for you to see. This is guaranteed to be a truly unique, dramatic, once in a life-time experience, that you will surely never forget.

Amazing tour guide, Lorenzo. He was very knowledgeable and had very detailed descriptions of all the art pieces and their backstory.

The tour with Adriana was amazing! The small size of the group allowed the tour to be intimate & Adriana's knowledge, warmth & passion of Venetian history ensured the experience was thoroughly enjoyable. The experience of visiting St Mark's basilica at night, away from the crowds, was truly magical and an experience that will never be forgotten, due to it's stunning beauty & history. The golden domes & the intricate biblical themed art work on the ceilings and around the church were breathtaking. To be able to observe & walk past, where the remains of Saint Mark rest, was most definitely a highlight of the tour.
During the tour, Adriana also suggested other places of interest to see & visit whilst in Venice. Following Adriana's recommendations, the day after, we ventured up the tower in St Mark's square. Just as Adriana had described, we were able to see the snow peaked Dolomites, a stunning overview of Venice, the lagoon & many islands. Thank you Adriana for an unforgettable experience!

Sabrina was a terrific guide, and both the Doge’s Palace and St Marks Basilica dramatically exceeded our expectations. It was a special treat to see both at night, as it felt like we had them more or less to ourselves, and we got to see areas (e.g., the crypt) that would have otherwise been off limits.

This tour was spectacular. Walking through the darkened Basilica and experiencing the lights going on to reveal the grandeur of the mosaics was amazing. Our guide Marina was so generous with her knowledge of both the Basilica and St Marks Square. Her passion for Venice and St. Mark's made our experience so enjoyable and meaningful. I highly recommend this tour.

Our guide Romy was incredibly knowledgeable and being in a small group of 6 was perfect. We had earphones so that we could hear Romy perfectly when we were in the basilica and quiet was required, or when we were outside amongst the crowds. Not having to queue and having access to the crypt made the tour extra-special. If you love history and want to learn, this is definitely worth putting in your calendar!
