Papal Audience in Rome Private Tour
Overview
Attend a Papal Audience with the Pope at the Vatican! Tickets are free but they are extremely hard to find, so booking in advance is essential. It is advisable to book ahead, therefore ensuring you won’t waste any time trying to obtain tickets while you’re on vacation in the Eternal City. We’ll reserve and pick up your free tickets, then make your way through the crowd to secure the best available seats. Depending on the season, the weather conditions and the number of devotees visiting that day, the audience can take place in the Audience Hall or St. Peter’s Square. The Vatican, is a must-see on any visit to Rome, but now we’re providing the opportunity to see the Pope in person. On this tour, you’ll have an expert, speaking tour. We know exactly where to sit, as the Pope has to pass by you when he enters! The Holy Father will give a special greeting and with the help of his Cardinals, he will perform blessings in many languages, sing hymns and give homilies.
