Venice: Organizing visits with the Museum Pass issue

Aleria31 · 2025-09-28

This year, I’ve decided—I’m heading to Venice with my 12-year-old daughter between October 23rd and 28th. Despite my research, I still can’t figure out how the Museum Pass works. I bought it thinking it would give us easier access to some must-see spots. Now, I’m reading that we need to make a specific time reservation for each museum. When I try to do that, all I can do is pay for our entry tickets *again*. This is the case for the Doge’s Palace, the Campanile, St. Mark’s Basilica, and the Peggy Guggenheim Collection.

An email to the tourist office didn’t get a helpful response. So now, I’m too nervous to even book a transport pass in advance!!!

If anyone could shed some light on this, it would be amazing.

Hello,

From what I recall, you can go back to the website after purchasing to make your reservations.

Be careful—on October 26th, there’s a marathon in Venice, so it’ll be *packed* with people.

Thanks for these details.. I’ll dig back into the Museum Pass website, then.

And huge thanks for the marathon date—looks like that’ll be the day to explore the islands.
