About this experience
Uncover centuries of art, faith, and history on a guided tour of the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, an architectural masterpiece offering iconic views across Rome. Meet your local guide near the entrance and step directly inside this sacred sanctuary. Marvel at 5th-century mosaics depicting biblical scenes along the nave and apse. Walk beneath gold-coffered ceilings while hearing the legend of the miraculous August snowfall. Descend toward the high altar to view the Crypt of the Nativity, which holds historic wooden relics. Explore the resting places of historical and spiritual figures, including the tomb of Baroque master Gian Lorenzo Bernini and the simple marble resting place of Pope Francis, situated near the revered icon of Mary Salus Populi Romani.
