Vatican City: Guided Tour + Papal Audience
About this experience
Join a tour that focuses on art, culture, and devotion, led by a guide certified by Vatican City. Each Wednesday, see a peaceful St. Peter’s Square before it gets busy. Your guide will share stories of the square and the Basilica, touching on history, art, and archaeology.
After the tour, sit in a reserved seat for the Papal Audience. This is a special gathering for devotees and pilgrims to see the pope and receive his blessing. The pope will travel around the square in the Popemobile, stopping along the way to greet attendees.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
