1-hour Official Guided Tour Of St. Peter’s Basilica
Overview
Discover the largest Basilica in the world with this official tour! Built on the humble tomb of the fisherman of Galilee, the Basilica was erected at the behest of the Emperor Constantine around 320 AD. It is located on the Vatican hill, not far from the circus of Nero, the place where the first apostle Peter was martyred. The Basilica offers the visitor a path rich in history, art and spirituality. Every little stone has something to tell. Since the Middle Ages, a population of pilgrims, first from Europe and then from the rest of the world, has made a more or less long journey to come and pray at the tomb of the Prince of the Apostles. Today many other means of travel are available to those who come to Rome, but the amazement of meeting this Basilica is always the same. Accompanied by an expert and prepared guide and in a small group, you will be able to immerse yourself in the history and artistic wonders of this unique place. A unique experience between faith and culture!
