Vatican Mosaic Studio: Guided Tour

Join a small-group tour with a certified guide by your side to learn about the techniques and historical importance of Vatican mosaics. Visit the Vatican Mosaic Studio to see the tools, materials, and methods used to create and preserve the mosaics inside St. Peter's Basilica. Then, follow your guide through a dedicated access route into the basilica, where they will introduce you to its history and underground area. The guided portion of your tour ends near the entrance to the Dome, from where you can continue exploring the basilica at your own pace, or choose to visit the Dome independently.
