Overview

Join the Papal Audience with a licensed tour leader for a once-in-a-lifetime experience in Rome.
Every Wednesday morning the Pope will cross St. Peter's Square on his popemobile, passing by the faithful on his way to the podium in front of St. Peter's Basilica from where he delivers his message and gives the Papal Blessing.
Don't stress about looking for entrance tickets, we'll take care of that. Just relax and admire St. Peter's Square with the Bernini's double colonnade, as you stroll through St. Peter's Basilica to see the Pope himself.
