Private St Peters Basilica Tour with Dome Climb and Crypt
Make the most of your time at St Peter's Basilica on this private, all-access tour for your own group, complete with priority entry, a visit to the papal crypt, and a climb up the dome. Starting early, you'll see St. Peter's Square without the large daytime crowds. Tour the basilica to admire Michelangelo's 'La Pietà' among other highlights, and pay a visit to the papal crypt, a site normally missed by other tour groups. This is a private tour for up to 10 guests, just your own group and a guide, with the pace built entirely around you. End your tour at the top of the dome, with your guide by your side throughout the climb, for panoramic vistas over the capital.

Where this sits in Rome
Rome is about 33 min by road from Rome Fiumicino Airport. Three thousand years stacked on top of each other, still busy being a capital. Stay central and walk — the Forum, the Pantheon and a dozen churches worth the detour are closer together than the map suggests, and the city rewards wandering more than ticking off.
