Your journey begins at the heart of the Vatican: St Peter’s Basilica, a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture. When you arrive, a professional team will greet you and provide all the information you need for a seamless visit. Marvel at Michelangelo’s Pietà, the majestic Baldachin by Bernini, and the awe-inspiring dome which dominates the Roman skyline.
Thanks to your reserved priority access, you can bypass the lengthy general queues (after security checks) and make the most of your time inside.
Venture beneath the basilica to explore the Vatican Grottoes, the final resting place of many Popes, including Saint John Paul II. Next, continue your spiritual and cultural journey to the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore. As one of the four papal basilicas and one of the oldest churches dedicated to the Virgin Mary, it's renowned for its 5th-century mosaics, opulent gold ceiling and architectural beauty. Of particular note is the tomb of Pope Francis, who chose this sacred place as his final resting place, a profoundly symbolic choice for a Pope known for his humility and devotion to Mary.
