St Mark's Basilica, whose construction was completed in 832, is known for supposedly having housed the relics of St Mark the Evangelist. After a fire in 975, the building was rebuilt by architects from Constantinople. At the end of the Fourth Crusade, a lot of treasures were sent from this Turkish city to Venice, among them the enamels of the golden altar.

If you want to continue exploring Venice and the surrounding islands, you can choose to add a 24-hour ticket for a free stop-over boat to your booking. You'll have a full day to hop on and off at your leisure at designated stops covering the most interesting spots in the city, as well as Murano, Burano and Torcello.

    Very good price and really a great facility that is without queues. You don't know how terrible it is to stand in the sun doing endless queues.

    The basilica is incredibly beautiful, if from the outside it is very imposing you can't imagine what it is inside.

    The accompaniment with the audio guide was perfect. We learned at our own pace and got in super fast.

    This is the most complete and convenient option I have found to visit the basilica. Remember that there are several floors and zones.
