Let a Vatican staff member accompany you on a walking tour of the Secret Garden and visit the Papal Apartment with audio guide so you can immerse yourself in 500 years of history. Wander from bedroom to private chapel, from library to study, and look at the balcony from where the Popes said the Angelus every summer Sunday. Lastly, you'll immerse yourself in this treasure chest on the outskirts of Rome where you'll follow in the footsteps of the Popes in the 7 rooms and summer offices inside the Palace.
