Visit St. Peter's Square, the crown jewel of Vatican City, to learn about its architecture and the optical illusions envisioned by Bernini.

Your guide will point out the two 'secret' spots within the square's expanse and the artwork inside St. Peter's Basilica.

The tour guide will escort you through the Basilica's standout features, including the incredible Papal Altar nestled under Bernini's Baldachin.

Next, venture into the Papal Grottoes, the expansive crypt tucked beneath the Basilica and a sight not to be missed. Also, you get a chance to climb to the dome.

Geweldige ervaring , alhoewel de basiliek en de tombes zijn gratis er is geen skip the line 90.min in de rij net als de gratis toegang alleen voor de tombe moet je 8.00 betalen en met lift 10.00 dus dan is 42 euro wel veel in een groep van 20.
