Does Presto’s Vatican Tour of St. Peter’s Basilica also take us to visit the ancient necropolis and St. Peter’s Tomb (Scavi Tour)?

Presto’s Vatican Tour visits the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, and the main level of St. Peter’s Basilica. We do not include the excavations area on our tour as this tour is run exclusively by St. Peter’s Basilica itself and is led by an authorized archaeologist of the Vatican City.  You can make a request for this tour by writing directly to the Vatican City Scavi Tour office at this email address: scavi(at)fsp.va When requesting a reservation, make sure to note how many people are in your party and what date range you would be available for touring. The more availability you provide to the office, the more luck you will have in securing a reservation. Also, it is notable that the minimum age for children to visit this area is 15 years-old.
Many of our guests join our Vatican Tour in the morning and then join the Scavi Tour in the afternoon or vice versa.
