Overview

Step into the shadows of history with the Passetto di Borgo, one of Rome’s most fascinating and enigmatic landmarks. This ancient, elevated passageway stretches from Vatican City to Castel Sant’Angelo, holding centuries of secrets—whispers of popes, conspiracies, and daring escapes.

With a dedicated host (not a tour guide), you'll access the Passetto di Borgo and walk along this restricted historic route, once used by popes fleeing danger.

After the Passetto experience, you’ll continue independently to Castel Sant’Angelo, where entry is included. Explore this imposing fortress and museum at your own pace: from papal apartments to prison cells and panoramic views over the Eternal City.

Your journey through history doesn’t end there: skip-the-line entry to the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel is also included, allowing you to admire the priceless art, history, and spirituality at the very heart of the Catholic Church.
