Having learned about LivTours through the Untold Italy podcast, my husband and I were excited to participate in their semi-private tour of St Mark’s at night. Our small group of 6 met in the piazza. We entered a quiet, dimly-lit basilica, sat down and, as instructed, waited for the lights to be turned on. As the the space was gradually illuminated the beauty of the basilica took our breath away. To see the incredible architecture, mosaics, art, with so few people around us, was dreamlike. Viewing the Pala d’Oro and the crypts, just the 6 of us, was so special. Our guide Grace was excellent. She provided so much history and detail with so much passion.
My husband and I are very grateful that we had this wonderful experience. We will definitely seek out other tours with LivTours in the future.
