The guide was not really friendly, she was always in a rush, we had only a few minutes on the terrace of the basilica, just the time to take some pictures and to see the view and we got kicked out by her, even tho when buying we were not told that it had a time limit
Original review on TiqetsDoge's Palace & St. Mark's Basilica Fast-Track Combo
Secure priority entry to Venice's two most important landmarks. Skip the ticket lines for the Doge's Palace and St. Mark's Basilica, including terrace access, all with a single booking to maximize your sightseeing time.
Description
Maximize your time in Venice by securing access to the two architectural anchors of St. Mark's Square. This combo ticket eliminates the frustration of waiting in two separate, often hours-long queues. You get direct entry to the Doge's Palace, the former seat of Venetian power, where you can walk through the golden Scala d'Oro and cross the Bridge of Sighs to the New Prisons. The package includes hosted entry to St. Mark's Basilica, ensuring you don't miss the intricate gold mosaics and the high altar. Unlike standard entry, this ticket grants you access to the Basilica terrace, providing a panoramic vantage point over the square and the Campanile for the best photos of the city. Inside the Palace, you will see Tintoretto's 'Paradiso', one of the largest oil paintings in existence, located in the Chamber of the Great Council. By bundling these sites, you bypass the logistical hassle of manual ticket booths and ensure your spot at these high-demand locations, which frequently sell out during peak season.

Both tours were great! Great combo ticket for a good day.
Original review on TiqetsI think you should have a map to show where the collection point is as had to ask 3 different people being sent all over the place before someone actually knew. Apart from that it was so worthwhile prebooking tickets to avoid long queues
