Vatican Treasures: St. Peter’s Basilica, Passetto Di Borgo & Castel Sant’Angelo

About This Experience

Enjoy reserved entry and access to three of the Vatican's must-see sites. At St. Peter’s Basilica, see the massive dome designed by Michelangelo from the outside and inside, and see his famous _Pietà_ sculpture. You'll walk along the elevated fortified corridor connecting Vatican City to Castel Sant’Angelo, the Passetto di Borgo. You'll see the defensive walls and arrow slits along the passage, and the locked gates at both ends of the passage. Plus, you'll explore Castel Sant’Angelo, including the papal apartments with Renaissance frescoes and the armory with historical weapons and armor displays. Don't miss the rooftop terrace to see statues and get views of the Tiber River and Rome.
