Overview of your Rome tour

St. Peter's Basilica is one of the holiest places of the Christendom. Famous artists such as Raphael, Michelangelo, Bernini and many more worked here. I decided to offer this tour to give you the opportunity to better appreciate this amazing Church and have enough time to listen to the incredible stories of the Vatican Basilica! The tour starts from the huge St. Peter's Square, then before getting inside the Basilica we will climb 320 steps to reach the top of the Dome, the highest point in Rome, to enjoy the best panoramic view of Rome and the Vatican City State! It will take your breath away. . . Once inside you will learn everything about the history of Popes, Saints, masterpieces and hidden gems held inside. During the tour you will have the chance to visit the Papal tombs... PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE BOOKING THIS TOUR, ST PETER'S BASILICA IS A CHURCH AND IT MIGHT BE SUBJECT TO UNPREDICTABLE CLOSURES!
