About
Gain incredible insight (and views of Vatican City) with tickets for a guided tour of St. Peter’s Basilica and climb to the top of the dome.
Start your tour by ascending the stairs to the dome of St. Peter’s. See the interior mosaics of the dome up close while your guide shares stories about the history of this Renaissance-style church.
