Venice: Doge's Palace & St Mark's After Hours Small GroupYou meet your guide at St Mark's Square, tour the Doge's Palace and Bridge of Sighs, then enter an empty St Mark's Basilica at night to watch the ceiling mosaics light up in darkness.

Basilica entry is included, and the whole tour takes three hours, though timing depends on nightly opening hours.Is it for me?Book this if you want to see Venice's most famous landmarks without crowds and experience St Mark's Basilica the way few visitors ever do — alone, at night, with the mosaics lit up above you.

Florence: 4-Course Italian Dinner Cooking Class & WineYou arrive at 5pm and spend three hours cooking an appetizer, fresh pasta, a meat dish and dessert alongside a chef in a Florence kitchen.

The whole thing takes about three hours and includes the meal, water and wine.Is it for me?Book this if you want to learn to cook Italian food you can actually make at home, and you'd rather spend an evening doing it than watching a video — the small group and the chef's attention are what make the learning stick, and eating what you cooked is the reward.
