Your experience

By skipping the endless lines, you are able to have fast-track access to St.

Peter’s Basilica, one of the most historically important and impressive churches in the world.

This secret entrance takes you deep into Vatican City without anyone around and with plenty of time to completely take in its magnificent architecture, priceless artworks, and holy atmosphere.

Just above the threshold Michelangelo’s Pieta awaits the visitor; a marble-carved image that ideally expresses the maternal sorrow and the tender nobility of the Virgin Mary supporting the thorn-crowned body of her son, Jesus Christ.

Keep your eyes open too when taken above this Baroque version of a ziggurat by Bernini for the swirling main dome of the Basilica.

Also amazing are the lovely mosaics tessellating the surfaces and ceilings that portray a story from every period.

It’s considered the greatest of all churches, the worldwide spiritual center of the Catholic faith, and a work of art.

Most of the famous painters, architects, and sculptors have contributed to this outstanding structure – Michelangelo, Raphael; Bernini just to name a few.

When you walk into its massive interior, you feel how much artistic work dating for centuries went into its construction and how much history is still connected with some religious functions.

That trip is not only walking around some spiritual and artistic core of our planet; it is a real masterpiece created by those who lived.
