    Courtyard or Belvedere Court The Cortile del Belvedere (Belvedere Courtyard or Belvedere Court) was a major architectural work of the High Renaissance at the Vatican Palace in Rome. Designed by Donato Bramante from 1505 onward, its concept and details reverberated in courtyard design, formalized piazzas and garden plans throughout Western Europe for centuries.[citation needed] Conceived as a single enclosed space, the long Belvedere court connected the Vatican Palace with the Villa Belvedere in a series of terraces connected by stairs, and was contained on its sides by narrow wings. Bramante did not see the work completed, and before the end of the sixteenth century it had been irretrievably altered by a building across the court, dividing it into two separate courtyards.

Both the square and the basilica are named after Saint Peter, an apostle of Jesus considered by Catholics to be the first Pope. At the centre of the square is an ancient Egyptian obelisk, erected at the current site in 1586. Gian Lorenzo Bernini designed the square almost 100 years later, including the massive Doric colonnades, four columns deep, which embrace visitors in "the maternal arms of Mother Church".

We booked our tour with Crazy4Rome and so happy that we did! The communication during the booking process and prior to our tour was appreciated. They provided us with a knowledgeable guide named Luisa. As busy as it was in the Vatican she was able to maneuver our private group to see all the highlights and more. She was a wealth of information and pointed out significant details about certain sculptures and paintings that otherwise would have gone unnoticed. She definitely knew her history, but it never felt overwhelming, This tour was definitely one of our highlights of our 3 week trip in Italy.

Maria Rosario was fantastic!! Easy to understand, very interesting facts and dates, she explained things in such a nice way that we really felt as if we were part of the construction and daily activities. She took her time and followed our lead as to how much interest we had. We actually did two different tours with her -- she was great!! Scheduling with the office was efficient and communication about meeting places, etc was on point. Would highly recommend this company!!
