Castel Sant'Angelo
Following a quick overview of the area and the Castel from the outside, you will enter the castle and hear about the Passetto di Borgo, a tiny elevated passage that connects the Castel to the Vatican and was featured in Dan Brown's Angels & Demons (closed to the public). Our guide will take you on a tour of the castle's beautiful halls, conserved artworks, and Papal apartments while explaining the castle's history.
When you reach the fortress's summit, you will be rewarded with a breathtaking panoramic view of Rome.
