About this experience
Join a semi-private guided tour of the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, one of Rome’s four papal basilicas.
See the Loggia of Blessings with its magnificent mosaic of the *Miracle of the Snow*, and walk down the famous Bernini staircase.
Inside, explore the Hall of the Popes and the museum, which houses sacred papal gifts, historical liturgical items, rare manuscripts, and the world’s first artistic nativity scene.
The tour concludes inside the main basilica, home to the Holy Crib and the final resting places of notable figures, including Bernini himself.
