Product Info

Embark on a fascinating journey through Rome’s historic churches and uncover the tucked-away gems of Raphael, one of the Renaissance’s most influential artists. On this 1.5-hour private guided tour, you’ll explore four remarkable sites, each offering a unique glimpse into his artistic genius: Basilica di Santa Maria del Popolo, Basilica di Sant’Agostino, Basilica di Santa Maria della Pace, and the Pantheon.

Your adventure begins at Santa Maria del Popolo, home to the stunning Chigi Chapel, designed by Raphael. Here, you’ll marvel at the chapel’s elegant architecture and catch a peek at the intricate mosaic dome - another brilliant design by Raphael. Next, you'll head to Sant’Agostino, where Raphael’s fresco of the Prophet Isaiah brings emotion and realism together. As you gaze upon this striking work, your guide will reveal how Raphael captures the prophet’s soul with lifelike detail and profound emotion.

Continue to Santa Maria della Pace, where Raphael’s awe-inspiring fresco of the Sibyls bursts to life with vibrant colours and dynamic compositions. Your guide will share the historical and artistic context behind it, deepening your appreciation for this stunning blend of Renaissance ideals and classical influences. Your final stop will be the Pantheon, where Raphael’s tomb lies. Standing in one of the most iconic and best-preserved monuments of ancient Rome, you’ll reflect on the profound legacy of an artist whose work continues to captivate the world.

For those wishing to extend their exploration, a 1-hour visit to Villa Farnesina awaits. This Renaissance jewel features extraordinary frescoes by Raphael and his students, including the iconic “The Triumph of Galatea” - a vivid portrayal of mythological beauty and grace.

Join us on this unforgettable tour and immerse yourself in Raphael’s extraordinary legacy, discovering how his artistry left an indelible mark on Rome’s cultural landscape.
