Overview

Come and explore the beauty of St. Peter’s Basilica on this engaging tour led by Mike, an expert guide who’s been living in Rome for 20 years.

Walk through the Holy Doors (only open this year) and admire Michelangelo’s stunning Pietà, visit Pope John Paul II’s tomb, and explore the Holy Doors. Mike will also share the story of St. Peter’s crucifixion, show you the preserved body of Pope John XXIII, and help you marvel at Michelangelo’s dome and Bernini’s Baldachin at the altar.
