St. Paul's Martyrdom and Legacy Private Walking Tour in Rome
Overview
Step off the beaten path and uncover the sacred secrets of Rome with a private 1.5-hour guided tour of the Abbazia delle Tre Fontane, a serene gem. Delve into the powerful story of St. Paul’s martyrdom, where the sacred site of three miraculous fountains marks the spot where his head is believed to have bounced three times after his beheading. Explore the abbey’s peaceful grounds, uncover its rich history, and visit the crypt where St. Paul was held before his execution. For those seeking a deeper experience, extend your tour to the grand Basilica di San Paolo Fuori le Mura, where you’ll stand before St. Paul’s tomb. With private transport included, this off-the-beaten-path journey reveals Rome’s spiritual side in a truly unforgettable way.
