This is the best tour I have ever been on! Our guide was an architect and this made the tour even more special. We had toured St. Mark's last fall during the day, but this was beyond our expectations. Seeing the Basilica at night was amazing and we felt privileged to be there. It is by far worth the price. You will not be disappointed!

This was a life-changing experience. We enjoyed St. Mark's in a way that very few people do...alone! It was quiet, majestic, and spiritually moving, and our guide was awesome. I can't recommend this tour enough. We even got to go down to the catacombs below, which very few people were able to do.

This was the highlight of our 5 day trip to Venice. It was not cheap but after reading other reviews which had also awarded it 5 stars we decided to book as we thought it would be a memorable experience - which it was. We spent about half an hour outside as it was a beautiful evening, with Andrea our guide talking about various aspects of the Basilica and St Marks Square and then we entered the Basilica. This was spectacular, amazing and magical. There was only one other small group there but hardly noticeable as we didn't cross each other's paths. The moment when the lights slowly came on and the mosaics were revealed was amazing. The tour lasted one and a half hours and Andrea was a very knowledgeable guide full of interesting and amusing stories. I feel privileged to have been there in the evening without all the crowds and wouldn't hesitate to recommmend this tour to others.

This was a great tour. The guide knew all about the special golden altar board. She pointed out important mosaics. We only had about 12 people in the tour and she could answer all our questions. The church is Roman Catholic but the design and style follows the Greek Style Architecture. Venice was a strong City State many of the important artifacts bronze horses, St. Marks Relics, etc. were taken from the Eastern Mediterranean.
