Rome Holy Sites and Christian Relics Tour 3.5 hr

Discover Rome’s spiritual history on a private tour of four revered basilicas, where sacred relics, storied architecture, and centuries of devotion shape the city’s landscape. With a licensed guide, visit Santuario della Scala Santa, home to the Holy Stairs, believed to be the steps Jesus climbed during his trial before Pontius Pilate. Continue to Holy Cross Basilica to learn about its Christian relics, then explore the quieter Basilica di Santa Prassede and its rich history. The route also takes you to Basilica Papale Santa Maria Maggiore, one of Rome’s four papal basilicas and an important pilgrimage site. This 3.5-hour Rome Holy Sites and Christian Relics Tour offers a personal way to connect with the stories behind these landmarks. Admission fees apply at Santuario della Scala Santa and Basilica di Santa Maria Maggiore; taxis, if needed, and tips are not included. Meet your guide in front of the Holy Steps entrance and experience Rome’s sacred heritage up close.
