It would help to know what you’re interesting in seeing - but for my trip, I booked the Doges Palace Secret Itineraries tour in advance.

Be aware that even places with skip-the-line tickets may have a line. We discovered this at St.Marks. There was one line for people without skip-the-line reservations, and a second line for people with skip-the-line tickets. The skip-the-line line was longer.

And the reason is that n-o-b-o-d-y skips the security lines.

Maybe there is a special security line for those who got tickets in Advance and that reserved a time slot. Maybe this special security line will be shorter than the other, but there is no way to enter such places without going through some airport-style check.

Otherwise all the bad guys would buy these skip the line tickets.

What's promoted as a "slip the line ticket" is just an entrance ticket purchased in advance on the web. The only line one can actually and fully skip is the line to buy the entrance tickets on the day.
