Embark on journey where spirituality and culture collide


Ready to experience one of the most awe-inspiring cities on earth? Join us on our Christian Rome Walking Tour for a journey where history, faith, and beauty collide in a truly unforgettable way. 2025 marks the Holy Year of Jubilee—one of the most important events in the Catholic Church that happens once every fifty years, and there’s no better time to explore the Vatican than now.


Your local guide will immerse you and a group of fellow travellers in the world of the pilgrims who came to Rome in search of spiritual awakening. After learning about the fascinating history of the Jubilee you’ll walk a similar path to the pilgrims, visiting the most iconic sites in the Vatican.


Stand in awe of the majestic Chiesa di Sant’Ignazio di Loyola, wander through the stunning Piazza Navona, and discover Castel Sant’Angelo and its history as a fortress, papal refuge, and even a prison. By the end you’ll have a greater understanding of how faith has shaped Rome and you’ll see the monuments that have long symbolised the power of the Catholic Church.


The tour will finish in Piazza Pia, with a breathtaking view of Saint Peter’s Basilica. This location is fitting; you’ll be close to the Holy Door, a rare and sacred passageway that’s only open during the Jubilee, promising transformation for those who pass through it. When the tour is over you can decide what happens next. Walk through the Holy Door, visit Saint Peter’s Basilica, and reflect on the history of Catholicism in Rome.


You don’t have to be religious to get something out of this tour, it offers something for every traveller. Whether you’re a pilgrim on a quest for something holy or simply a curious traveller keen to dive into Rome’s rich history—the Christian Rome Walking Tour is the most unique way to experience the Eternal City.
