The Basilica of St Peter's guided tour - Upon...

 St Peter's dominates the landscape of Rome: no one can miss this beauty inside and out! Mosaics and side altars, chapels and minor cupolas, and of course Michelangelo's Inner Cupola and his masterpiece as a sculptor -La Pieta`.  Also included is a visit to the Vatican Grottoes, housing several papal tombs.

An unmissable account of the splendour and scandal of building the largest basilica in the world.

A perfect ending to this tour would be to climb on your own to the Cupola (a small fee applies), enjoying a view of the interior from the whispering gallery before reaching the top with its breathtaking panorama of Rome.

Meet: at 2.00 p.m. at the obelisk in the centre of the square. Accompanied by our licenced guides, this group will skip the queue!
