Description
Only the Brave.
Our St. Peter’s Basilica & Dome Tour is a special experience, only for brave visitors.
Getting to the top of the Dome is not for everyone, as it can get tiring and claustrophobic at times. Be sure the views are worth the climb though!
Infact you will have Rome literally at your feet. 360 degrees of beauty that leaves anybody speechless.
After spotting the best landmarks of the Eternal City from the sky, you’ll continue your tour with a fully personalized visit of St. Peter’s Basilica.
Your expert local guide will share the secrets behind the Burial of Saint Peter, Bernini’s Baldachin and Michelangelo’s Pietà and will answer all your questions about the history of the Popes and the Vatican State.
Leaving the Church, gripped by all this beauty, you’ll be welcomed in Saint Peter’s Square by stunning statues of the Apostles, Saints and Martires dominating the façade of the Basilica and Bernini’s Colonnato.
This tour is particularly loved also by families with kids as it lets the young explorers have fun in climbing the Dome instead of squeezing them into the crowded halls of the Vatican Museum.
