Experience the awe and grandeur of St. Peter’s Square, one of the world’s most famous plazas, where Bernini’s sweeping colonnades guide you toward the heart of the Vatican. The sparkling fountains, towering obelisk, and lively atmosphere of pilgrims and travelers create a perfect setting to soak in history, take remarkable photos, and feel the majesty of this iconic site. From here, enter St. Peter’s Basilica, a masterpiece of Renaissance art and architecture, where marble, gold, and light combine to create an unforgettable visual and spiritual experience. Every corner reveals treasures like Michelangelo’s Pietà and Bernini’s Baldachin, while the chapels and intricate details invite slow exploration and deep appreciation of centuries of craftsmanship.
Discover the hidden wonders beneath the basilica with the exclusive Scavi Tour, exploring the Vatican Necropolis, an ancient burial site steeped in history and mystery. Walk through quiet corridors past early Christian tombs, ancient frescoes, and archaeological treasures, culminating at what is believed to be the tomb of St. Peter himself. This rare and intimate experience adds a profound historical and spiritual dimension to your visit, complementing the grand majesty above ground. Together, the square, basilica, and underground necropolis create a perfectly balanced journey through art, faith, and history that captivates history lovers, art enthusiasts, and curious travelers alike.
