Admire Michelangelo’s Pietà, the majestic Bernini Baldachin, and the awe-inspiring dome that dominates the Roman skyline. With reserved priority access make the most of your time inside. Beneath the basilica, visit the Vatican Grottoes, home to the Papal Tombs, where many popes—including Saint John Paul II—are buried. Afterwards, continue your spiritual and cultural journey to the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, one of the four papal basilicas and one of the oldest churches dedicated to the Virgin Mary.
