Product Info

Situated in Vatican City, St. Peter's Basilica is a remarkable symbol of religious importance and an extraordinary masterpiece of Renaissance and Baroque architecture, a place where art and spirituality merge harmoniously. This grandiose Basilica was constructed on the presumed location of Saint Peter's burial.

Your guided tour begins in the world-famous St. Peter’s Square, where your expert guide reveals fascinating details about Bernini’s grand colonnade, the symbolism behind the square’s design, and the centuries of history that have unfolded on these sacred stones.

Inside St. Peter’s Basilica, prepare to be amazed. Marvel at Michelangelo’s breathtaking Pietà, the intricate and shining mosaics, and Bernini’s Baldachin, symbols of Renaissance and Baroque art. 

The tour also includes a visit to the Papal Grottoes, a solemn and sacred area beneath the Basilica where many popes are buried, including St. Peter himself, the church’s first pontiff. 

Then, you’ll follow the guide having the opportunity to admire the wonder of St. Peter's Dome, one of the highest in the world, from a unique vantage point, getting up close to its magnificent mosaics.
Ascend to the top of St. Peter's Dome for breathtaking panoramic views, like never before, from 136 meters up.
