The guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about the basilica and Venice generally. We were able to visit the main part of the basilica and it was beautifully lit up at night which was wonderful, and to do so without the huge crowds was amazing. We were able to sit for some time and soak in the incredible architecture, and the guide added detailed descriptions of the art and it's meaning. It was also fascinating to go down into the crypt.

We really enjoyed our night tour of St. Mark's Basilica. It was so nice because it was quiet. Only one other group was there with us as we toured inside with our guide, Martina. She was a wonderful guide who shared very interesting stories and information about the Basilica. I only wish the Doge's Palace option was available with this tour.

I liked the tour of the St Mark's Basilica. It was worth it to go at night. But I was looking for headout company and would have missed the tour if I did not ask the Walk's person if I was part of that tour. Also, the tour said we were supposed to go up the tower as well and that did not happen. I think the headout webpage needs some updating.

Visite en tout petit groupe de la basilique Saint Marc. Un moment privilégié qui a ébloui nos 2 ados pourtant peu portés sur les visites d'église. Ce moment rare restera longtemps dans nos mémoires !

Well worth the price to have the wonderful opportunity to see the grnadeur of St Marks Basilica away from the crowds. The tour guide (Nico) was fantastic - likeable, clear, concise, witty and most importantly he clearly knew his stuff. The head phones worked perfectly, the location was phenomenal and I would highly recommend. 10/10 to Nico for providing such an outstanding tour.

Your Experience

This exclusive tour will take you through one of the most unique and awe-inspiring churches in the world: St. Mark's Basilica. Here you’ll get to see the unique mix of Western and Byzantine art. Your expert guide will even take you through the epic story of its construction.

Most importantly, during this after-hours tour, you will not only get to visit St. Mark's Square but also the church and its 43,000 square feet of golden mosaics. You will then descend into the crypt to see where some of Venice's most famous inhabitants are buried (when it isn't flooded). Then you will get to see the beautiful altar and the famous Pala d'Oro altarpiece with nearly 2,000 precious gems. All of this, without noisy crowds - what more can one ask for?

If you've chosen it as an option, you'll also get to see Doge's Palace, a historic landmark that served as the seat of Venetian political power for centuries.
