Getting started

Arrive at the entrance on time (preferably even early) at both the venues to complete your security checks and begin your experience on time. Once inside, you can kickstart your adventure on your own.

Rome Pantheon

From pagan temple to church, the Pantheon has undergone many transformations. What sets it apart is that it has always remained in use in its 2000+ years of history.

Features

• The floor still follows the original Roman design, slightly sloped to allow rainwater to drain when it enters through the oculus.
• The niches inside the rotunda originally held statues of gods, now home to Christian altars and royal tombs.
• It houses the tombs of important figures, including Raphael, the famed Renaissance artist and Victor Emmanuel II, the first king of unified Italy.
• The portico has 16 massive Corinthian columns made of Egyptian granite.

Castel Sant'Angelo

An imposing Tiber-facing fortress in Rome that began as Emperor Hadrian’s mausoleum, Castel Sant'Angelo has evolved into a papal refuge, prison, and museum—blending imperial grandeur and ancient Roman history.

Features

• The fort follows a massive cylindrical design, symbolizing strength and permanence.
• Climb the spiral ramp from the base to the upper terrace. This was originally used for funeral processions.
• See the Papal apartments adorned with Renaissance frescoes and lavish details.
• Visit the Treasury Room which once stored imperial remains and later Vatican treasures.
• The terrace at the top provides one of the best 360° views of Rome, including the Vatican, Tiber River, and St. Peter’s Basilica.
