“Très belle visite du Palais des doges avec une guide parfaite commentaires clairs et très intéressants ! La visite d'une heure se termine par l'intérieur du pont des soupirs et des prisons mais vous pouvez refaire la visite en totalité pour apprécier de nouveau tout ce palais tant que vous ne sortez pas de l'enceinte... A noter que le billet d'entrée vous donne accès au musée Corre situé à côté le jour même et le lendemain ...une visite à faire sans hésitation !!!”
