Description

Known as the queen of all Basilicas, the Basilica of St. Peter is a church of Renaissance style with a central dome that dominates the skyline of Rome. As you enter the church, you will see that its interior is vast if compared to other churches. At the heart of the Basilica, beneath the high altar, you will discover the Confessione, or Chapel of the Confession, named for the confession of faith by St. Peter, which lead to his martyrdom. Two curving marble staircases lead to this underground chapel at the level of the Constantinian church and immediately above the burial place of Saint Peter. You will see that the entire interior of St. Peter's is lavishly decorated with marble, reliefs, architectural sculpture, and gilding. It's luxurious and elegant. Come and enjoy the queen of all of Basilicas!

Discover Rome at your own pace with a combined 24/48-hour ticket for the official hop-on hop-off sightseeing bus, and guided tour to St. Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican City.

Once you board the bus you will be provided with an official audio guide to help you tour at your own pace. Make as many stops as you like along the way as you learn about masterpieces of art by celebrated artists such as Michelangelo, Bellini, and more.
