<p>This is very misleading, Skip the line? Our guide met us at the Square and we walked around where she explained and gave us an overview of the different buildings. But when I asked about going into the Basilica the line was long and she said there was no time for that. What was suppose to be four hours was cut to 2.5. Although I have to say, we really enjoyed the boat tour. That was the highlight of our stay in Venice. While on the tour she explained the different sites, the buildings, etc. You see so much more in a motor boat tour than a gondola ride.</p>
<p>TOUR OPERATOR COMMENT: Dear Jose, thank you for taking the time of writing this review! We are glad that you enjoyed the boat tour and our guide, and we are very sorry that you could get inside Saint Mark's basilica. The tour that you booked was 2 hours and not 4 hours as you are writing in the review. So the guide actually gave you 30 minutes more of her time, making 2,5 hours instead of 2. As mentioned in the tour description and in the voucher, between November and March there is no skip the line access to the basilica as lines are usually minimal but given the Italian festivity of Nov 1st you may have found more people than normal, we apologize for that, but this depends on the basilica's own management. Best regards, Elena.</p>
