Arch-Basilica of St John Lateran Rome - 1-Hour Tour

Overview of the tour in Rome

Welcome to Rome, where pilgrims are drawn to a multitude of treasures, none quite as profound as the Holy Steps and the magnificent Arch-Basilica of St. John Lateran, lovingly referred to as San Giovanni in Italian. Embark on a pilgrimage with us to the Cathedral of Rome and the Scala Sancta, where our knowledgeable Catholic scholar and guide will illuminate the rich history of this 1700-year-old church. Here, we'll pay homage to the revered relics of Saints Peter and Paul, the Pillars of the Church.

San Giovanni, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a marvel of architecture and history. Intricately intertwined with the legalization of Christianity in the Roman Empire, this Cathedral has witnessed centuries of triumphs and tribulations.

As our Basilica of St. John Lateran Pilgrim Tour concludes, take a moment to admire the majestic facade. Nearby, you'll find convenient access to public transportation, taxis, and the ancient Aurelian walls, marking the boundary of the Centro Storico and the sprawling suburbs of Rome.
