See the amazing collection of the Vatican Museums and then make the pilgrimage to all the four Rome’s Jubilee Basilicas to see the Holy Doors.

During this journey you will learn Christian rituals that are followed during the celebration of the Jubilee. During the Jubilee Year, traditionally celebrated every 25 years but an extraordinary Jubilee has been called for 2016, visitors can walk through the open Holy Doors and gain the plenary indulgence. The opening of these doors, which are normally sealed shut from within, is the most significant ceremonial feature of the Jubilee.

You will meet your personal tour guide at your hotel and set off for the tour.
Skip the line to enter the museum and visit the smallest independent country in the world. Enjoy endless halls of priceless masterpieces while your knowledgeable, passionate guide brings centuries of Vatican history to life. Walk through former papal palaces while you take in ancient Roman sculpture, breathtaking architecture, and Renaissance mastery. The Sistine Chapel will surely be the highlight of your Vatican Museums tour. After the museum, visit St Peter's Basilica, the largest Catholic church in the world, where you can see the Holy Door shut open.

After that you will visit the other three of the four major churches in Rome: the Basilica of St John the Lateran, Santa Maria Maggiore and St Paul Outside the Walls to see the Holy Doors.

Hotel pickup and transfer between the sites is not included, please expect to pay extra for the taxi.
