Roma Trip Overview
The first ever created, absolutely original Vatican Dome Climb by Rome Guided / When In Rome Tours! We don’t know why less than 0.01% of Vatican visitors climb St. Peter’s Dome, it’s a strange statistic, an unforgivable oversight, as climbing the Vatican Dome has been the #1 must-do / must-see Vatican activity since 2018! For this reason we have decided to take it from the top and offer you our most spectacular Vatican tour in two parts! Meet your Vatican guide by St. Peter’s Square (beside a beautiful fountain, of course). Sacred stairs (and an elevator) will carry you up to St. Peter’s Terrace from where you will see ancient, old, and modern Rome with the Tyrrhenian Sea beyond! Back on terra firma you will tour the vastness of St. Peter’s Basilica too. Take a break before making the short walk to our Vatican meeting point for your second tour. Get guide-led priority entrance to masterpieces inside the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel that will change your life when in Rome!
