Itinerary

Basilica Papale San Paolo Fuori le Mura

one of the four major basilicas of Roman Catholic church. According to the Christian tradition, the church filled with a sacred atmosphere was built exactly over the tomb of the apostle, not far from the site of his martyrdom.

1 hour
Abbazia Delle Tre Fontane

Today it is a quiet and peaceful monastery in the heart of Rome and one of the most venerated places in the city for pilgrims. Christian tradition holds that the Roman court sentenced the apostle to death for professing his creed. When Paul was beheaded his head bounced three times – miraculously producing three springs of water. You will see the three springs that still flow in the sanctuary of the monastery.

40 minutes
Carcer Tullianum

It's the oldest prison in Rome, where the Apostles St. Paul and St. Peter were imprisoned for 9 months and where, according to legend, they miraculously made water appear in order to baptize the guards.

40 minutes

The guide was very...

The guide was very knowledgeable and took time to answer her questions we didn't feel rushed at all excellent tour

Spoiled again by Rosalba

Published on Oct, 2024

In 2017, my wife and I booked a full day private walking tour of Rome. We were fortunate to get Rosalba as our guide. With advanced degrees in Art History and Sculpture we couldn't have asked for a better guide in Rome. The day was amazing...learned so much. So we asked if she'd guide us a second day and she did. In those two days we learned so much about Rome, its history, both secular and religious, its culture, architecture, history and arts. Over the years we've stayed in touch with her and recommended her to friends visiting Rome and so during this visit we booked a tour with her several months ago. During the two days prior to the tour, my wife and I walked around Rome and visited several sites including the Castel Sant'Angelo on our own. And once again, I realized "I take lots of pictures in Rome but have no idea what I'm seeing or its significance UNLESS we're with Rosalba." And, so it is. On this tour, Rosalba and driver Luca picked us up and we traveled to the Mamertine Prison, St. Paul's Basilica where he was buried and the Three Fountains sites where Rosalba's expert and deep knowledge taught us about Paul's life, his imprisonment and final days. In the 3.5-hour private tour, we learned more than I could have by reading several books. On our next trip to Rome, we'll once again request Rosalba, who we now count as one of our friends.

A spiritually moving, holy experience

Published on Sep, 2024

This tour was an essential holy experience, as we contemplated the life of St. Paul. Rosie, our tour guide, was thoughtful, kind, and knowledgeable, always willing to answer our questions. It was great having this highly personalized experience, moving from Paul’s suffering in prison, to his death, and burial place at the Basilica of St. Peter’s as a single tour rather than visiting those locations on our own which would have required taxis and would have been disjointed. This was a spiritually moving experience for us, which we highly recommend. We can’t state enough how wonderful Rosie was.

Great Christian tour about apostle Paul

Rosie, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and very informative. We are Christians and it was great to learn more and see it in person. I would highly recommend this tour and Rosie as your guide.

Incredible tour with amazing facts

This was an amazing tour outlining so much history that we were unaware of. The architecture and stories associated with it were incredible
