Deal overview
With this ticket you can take a guided tour of approximately 2 hours to St. Peter's Basilica and the Vatican Grottoes, as well as having the opportunity to climb to the top of the dome of the basilica.
Arrive at the majestic St. Peter's Square and after meeting with the guide climb the dome of the basilica, from which you will have a panoramic view from the highest point of the city. Subsequently you can go directly inside the cathedral and thus avoid the queues that form at the entrance.
Inside the basilica let yourself be won over by the unique beauty of the works inside, above all Michelangelo's Pietà which will leave you speechless.

This tour is ideal for those who want to learn more about the architecture and history of this magical place, as well as the legends and anecdotes regarding centuries of Christian history.
*Meeting point Largo del Colonnato 5, there will be a yellow sign waiting for you.
