Hop On Hop Off Bus & Saint Mary Major ticket with optional audio guide

-What you can expect-
Discover Rome with complete freedom thanks to a Hop‑on Hop‑off bus experience combined with a visit to the magnificent Basilica of Saint Mary Major. You may start your day aboard the panoramic bus, the ideal way to admire Rome’s iconic monuments in comfort. With unlimited hop‑on hop‑off access, you can create your own itinerary, stop at the sites that inspire you most, or enjoy the ride as the Eternal City unfolds around you.

Your visit to Saint Mary Major will vary depending on the option selected. The standard entrance ticket includes access to the basilica and its exclusive Upper Areas, usually closed to the public. Explore the Loggia delle Benedizioni overlooking the square, the historic Sala dei Papi, Bernini’s elegant staircase, and the fascinating Liberian Museum. These spaces reveal the basilica’s deep spiritual and artistic heritage, so be sure to dedicate enough time to enjoy them fully.

The audioguide option is ideal for visitors seeking independence and insight. It includes skip‑the‑line entry and detailed audio commentary at your own pace, but does not grant access to the Upper Areas.

Inside the basilica, you’ll be immersed in centuries of history, from glittering early Christian mosaics to richly decorated chapels. Whichever option you choose, the beauty and atmosphere of Saint Mary Major will leave a lasting impression.

This combined experience offers flexibility, culture, and convenience, an ideal way to discover the essence of Rome.
