We'll start our tour from the St John's Basilica, the cathedral of Rome. The historical and spiritual importance of this place will be explained in detail by your qualified tour guide. We'll visit the sanctuary of the Holy Stairs (the most important relics are preserved here).

According to Roman Catholic tradition, the Holy Stairs were the steps leading up to the praetorium of Pontius Pilate in Jerusalem, on which Jesus Christ stepped before his Passion. They were brought to Rome from Jerusalem by Saint Elena, mother of the Emperor Constantine. It's one of the most spiritual places of Christianity and your guide will leave the necessary introduction and time to enjoy this unmissable experience.

Then we'll head to another papal Basilica, dedicated to St Mary and also known as Our Lady of the Snows, for the miracle of its construction (you'll learn about it . . . )

When exploring the birth of Christianity, you cannot miss the visit of one catacomb. Those burial places still tell us a lot about the values of fraternity and hope shared by the community of first christians.
