A day to discover the Vatican City, the smallest sovereign state in the world!
Attending the Papal Audience is an amazing once-in-a-lifetime experience and an opportunity to see the Pope himself. He will be passing by the faithful on his Pope mobile, on his way to the podium in front of St. Peter's Basilica, from where will be delivering his message and give the Papal Blessing.
After lunch, visit the Vatican Museums, with its immense art collection built up by the Popes throughout the centuries, exploring with a licensed guide the Vatican Galleries and the frescoes of the Sistine Chapel.
The tour will continue directly and without line into St. Peter’s Basilica, the largest church in the world and symbol of the Catholic religion, with iconic masterpieces such as La Pietà by Michelangelo and the huge Baldacchino by Bernini.
The tour ends in St. Peter’s Square, dominated by Michelangelo’s imposing Cupola and surrounded by the famous Bernini’s double Colonnade.
