  • Cupola di San Pietro, Vatican City, Italy
    Let's start to explore the Dome! Short to attend as you may be there before the standard daily hoards arrive. enclosed within the tour is that the elevator ride to the primary level wherever you find about the dome with its beautiful mosaics and elaborations. From ground level they're impressive; from up shut you'll extremely appreciate the mastery that went into making such elaborate work. Then prepare yourself for the climb up the 281 steps which will take you to the highest of the dome. The guide can tell you what to see for once you reach the top: spectacular views of St. Peter’s Square; the marvelous read on the long, straight avenue that Mussolini bulldozed which ends up in St. Peter’s and therefore the long distance views across the river to the terribly centre of ancient Rome. positively the most effective viewing purpose within the whole of Rome!

  • St. Peter's Basilica, Vatican City, Italy
    It is then back once more to ground level for a tour of St. Peter’s Basilica wherever you may explore the various facet chapels with their hidden crypts. You'll see Michelangelo’s Pietà and your guide will make a case for why this is often the sole work that he signed.  There is still additional to envision although below ground level. You guide can lead you below ground to the pontifical sepulchre wherever, over the centuries, several of the Popes are inhumed.

    Che dire il top delle visite. Fantastico giro dei musei vaticani con la Cappella sistina. Unico al mondo per chi va a Roma imperdibile. Nei musei vaticani non solo la cappella sistina ma anche gli arazzi e tanto altro. L’Italia è top

    We toured the Vatican with Tommaso on our last day in Rome. After a few tours, one knows what to expect, knowledge, insight and personality are what makes a tour guide worth recommending. Tommaso has an abundance of each. His knowledge includes nuances and details omitted from the books. He kept a lively pace while sensitive to our abilities to keep up and offered friendly comments packed with knowledge evidencing a true insight in the art, architecture and history of the Vatican. In all, the tour was, in a word, fun! We heartily recommend Tommaso
