What to expect
Join an unusual tour combining art, culture and devotion, accompanied by a specialized guide accredited by the Vatican City.
The wonder of discovering, every Wednesday, from spring to autumn, a sleepy and quiet St. Peter’s Square disclosing its treasures before your very eyes. Your guide will entertain you with stories from great history and everyday life, anecdotes and explanations of historical, artistic and archaeological nature related to the square and the Basilica.
At the end of the guided tour in English, you will take place in your exclusive and reserved seat, to attend the Papal Audience. This is not a religious celebration, but a meeting occasion dedicated to devotees and pilgrims, who can meet Pope Francis and receive his blessing. Aboard the Popemobile, the Pope will tour the square departing from the Arch of the Bells; along the path, he will make several stops to greet and embrace the attendees. The duration of the audience is about 1 hour and a half.
