Meet your expert guide at St. Peter’s Square, where you’ll hear captivating stories about the world’s smallest country and the symbolic significance of this sacred site. After passing security, step inside the Basilica—the largest Catholic church on Earth—and discover its artistic treasures. Admire Michelangelo’s Pietà, explore Bernini’s masterpieces, and learn the fascinating history behind the church’s architectural marvels and intricate mosaics. Continue your tour by descending into the Vatican Grottoes, home to the tombs of former popes, including the revered resting place of Saint Peter, one of Jesus’s apostles and the first pope. Finish your experience near a tranquil fountain, where you may choose to explore the Basilica further or purchase separate access to climb the dome for panoramic views of Rome.
