About this tour
Discover the hidden heart of the Vatican on this exclusive underground tour, strictly limited to only a few visitors per day. This rare experience grants you privileged access to the Vatican Catacombs and Roman Necropolis, a sacred area located deep beneath St. Peter’s Basilica. Walk along ancient Roman burial streets lined with pagan and early Christian tombs as your expert guide reveals the secrets of this underground world. Visit the site traditionally believed to be St. Peter’s Tomb, the burial place of the Apostle and the spiritual foundation of the Christian Church — a once-in-a-lifetime privilege. After your underground visit, enjoy a VIP skip-the-line entrance directly into St. Peter’s Basilica. Continue with a guided tour inside the Basilica, the largest church in the world and a masterpiece of Renaissance art. Admire Michelangelo’s Pietà, Bernini’s majestic Baldachin, and richly decorated chapels. Due to extremely limited availability, early booking is strongly recommended.
