(Four Major Basilicas Tour)
For many hundreds of years, millions of Christian pilgrims came to Rome to receive the blessings of the relics of the saints and holy places in the four great basilicas of Rome. Our Rome tours of the four great basilicas retrace their steps.
Our Christian Rome tours begin at the Basilica of St. John Lateran, the cathedral of Rome. The Rome tours of this basilica visit the Holy Stairs climbed by Jesus Christ on his way to be judged by Pontius Pilate. Saint Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine, had these stairs brought back piece by piece from Jerusalem in the 4th century. St. Paul outside the Walls is a major basilica outside the walls of Rome, located at the traditional burial place of St. Paul. Outside the church are tombs where St. Paul was buried. We will visit Santa Maria Maggiore, the patriarchal basilica dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. Legend claims that the plan of the church was outlined by a miraculous snowfall in August. The legend is commemorated on August 5th, when white rose petals are dropped from the dome during Mass. St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican City is the greatest Christian cathedral in the world. Marvel at the Renaissance work of Michelangelo's Pieta and Bernini's baroque statues of angels, saints and martyrs. Learn of the martyrdom of the apostle Peter, his sepulcher under the Papal altar and of the ultimate construction of the greatest Christian cathedral in the world over more than a century.
