Den ultimative basilika tur med kuppel og krypter | Lille gruppe
Beskrivelse
Slå varmen og folkemængden - Early Entrance Dome Access Udforsk en fantastisk basilika på en lille gruppe guidet tur for en mere personlig oplevelse. Oplev dens historie, beundre betagende kunst og arkitektur, og klatre til toppen af kuplen for uforglemmelige panoramaudsigt over byen. Denne omfattende tur til Sankt Petersbasilikaen tager dig der med hop-the-line-indgang, der viser dig alt fra top til bund, herunder den betagende udsigt fra toppen af kuplen, dens skjulte skatte, pavelige grave og omfavnelsen af dens verdensberømte piazza. En passioneret vatikansk ekspert vil guide dig gennem denne storslåede kirke fra top til bund for at pege på Roms vigtigste seværdigheder, forklare den århundredelange historie i Sankt Petersbasilikaen og give dig en introduktion til paverne begravet her. Dette er en intim oplevelse med turgrupper dækket til kun 12 personer eller mindre. Det betyder, at der ikke vil være en masse mennesker mellem dig og din guide.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Vi starter fra det historiske distrikt i Rom, kaldet Borgo. Guiden vil lave en introduktion til Vatikanstaten og vise dig hemmelige passager fra paven.
Peterspladsen i er en af de mest berømte (og bestemt en af de mest hellige!) seværdigheder i verden. Det blev designet i det 17. århundrede af Gian Lorenzo Bernini, der var kendt som den mest dygtige arkitekt i Rom på det tidspunkt. Pave Alexander VIII, som bestilte piazzaen, bad Bernini om at understrege Sankt Peters betydning som "porten til himlen", og arkitekten gennemførte anmodningen smukt. Han opdelte pladsen i et mindre trapezformet område, der støder op til basilikaen og en oval hoveddel, som tilsammen skaber en grundplan i form af et kæmpe nøglehul.
Udsigten fra toppen af Peterskirken hyldes vidt og bredt som Roms bedste panorama. Fra disse højder vil du også være i stand til at se ud over hele Vatikanstaten med dens pragtfulde haver. Dette er 360° af ren magi, da Den Evige Stad strækker sig til bakkerne bagved, og din guide vil hjælpe dig med at se mange berømte tag og kuppel, fra Pantheon, til Castel Sant'Angelo og mere.
Kendt af en række navne, Vatikanets krypter, Vatikanets grotter eller de fængslende 'Vatacombs', er dette den enorme underjordiske kirkegård under St. Peter's, der huser de hellige grave af forskellige paver, martyrer, konger og andre troende, som den centrale kirke i katolicismen har samlet i løbet af sine årtusinder af historie. Du kan endda se et par søjler af den oprindelige Sankt Petersbasilika bygget af kejser Konstantin i det 4. århundrede e.Kr.
Passere gennem den mindste i verden, Vatikanstaten, gennem kolonaden Bernini.

- Anbefales ikke til gravide rejsende
- Anbefales ikke til rejsende med fare for hjerte-kar-sygdomme

- Turoperatøren køber prioriterede billetter til alle gæster. Bemærk venligst, at hop-the-line-indgangen skal passere gennem sikkerhed, hvilket også kan tage 20 minutter. Den normale linje tager timer at komme ind.
- Alle deltagere skal dække deres knæ og skuldre under besøg på religiøse steder. Du risikerer at blive nægtet adgang, hvis du ikke overholder disse krav til tøj.
- Kuppelens terrasse er muligvis ikke tilgængelig under dårlige vejrforhold. I så fald kan du enten bede om en delvis refusion og besøge basilikaen og grotterne eller beslutte at annullere turen for en fuld refusion.

- Kørestole er ikke tilladt i basilikaen. Der er en bagage depot ved indgangen til basilikaen, hvor du kan efterlade vognen.

- Hver rejsende skal fremvise et gyldigt ID-dokument (eller et billede af dette ID), der matcher det samme navn, der blev givet på tidspunktet for bookingen for en vellykket adgang.
- Bemærk venligst: I tilfælde af, at grotterne eller visse områder af Peterskirken er lukket, vil din guide tilpasse ruten ved at fremhæve alternative steder og kunstværker inden for basilikaen. Som følge heraf vil den samlede varighed og kvalitet af turen forblive uændret.

When my wife and I were planning our "bucket list" trip to Rome the top of our to do list was a visit to The Vatican. Having looked at many options for guided tours we came across the What a Life Tours "Best of the Best " 3 hour small group tour which seemed to fit everything we wanted to do - skip the queues, visit the Vatican museums, the Sistine Chapel and St Peters Basilica. Elaine, our friendly and amusing guide, shared her wide ranging knowledge of the Vatican's history and treasures in a way that was informative without being overpowering, all the time guiding us through the crowds and getting us to the most advantageous viewing points to fully appreciate the splendour and intricacies of the architecture, artwork and sculptures of all 3 buildings. We would have no hestition in recommending this tour.
Dear Guest, We greatly appreciate the recommendation and are delighted to hear that the tour was everything you had hoped for! Just to note, the service you left this review for is our Ultimate Basilica Tour with Dome & Crypts | Small Group, whilst the tour you participated in is the Skip-the-Line Vatican Sistine Chapel & St. Peter's | Small Group, which includes the 3 sites you listed in your review! Nevertheless, thank you for including us in knocking another item off your bucket list, and we'd be more than happy to be a part of knocking more items off your future bucket lists! Continued safe travels ahead, and all the very best! Kind regards, Carima

Our tour was canceled right when our group was ready to leave. It was frustrating and certainly messed up our travel schedule, but the company did issue a refund the next day.
Marcello Moghbel was a fantastic guide. The tour was perfect. His knowledge of the Area was impressive. Keep in mind there are a lot of steps.
Excellent tour with Marcello Moghbel! He was extremely knowledgeable and made the trip interesting and captivating for all of us. Highly recommended!
