Hop-on Hop-off and Saint Mary Major with Audio Guide Option

Discover Rome with freedom thanks to a Hop‑on Hop‑off bus experience combined with a visit to the Basilica of Saint Mary Major, one of the city’s most important churches. Explore Rome at your own pace aboard an open‑top bus, creating your itinerary as you hop on and off at the sites that inspire you most. Your visit to Saint Mary Major depends on the option chosen. The standard entrance ticket includes access to the basilica and its exclusive Upper Areas, usually closed to the public: the Loggia delle Benedizioni, the historic Sala dei Papi, Bernini’s staircase, and the Liberian Museum. These spaces reveal the basilica’s rich spiritual and artistic heritage, so be sure to allow enough time. The audioguide option offers skip‑the‑line entry and detailed commentary at your own pace, but does not include the Upper Areas. Inside, shimmering mosaics and ornate chapels await you. This combined experience offers flexibility, culture, and convenience—the perfect way to discover Rome.
