Tour delle tre BASILICHE DEI PAPI
Avrete sicuramente già sentito parlare del Giubileo, detto anche anno Santo, una tradizione cominciata nel 1300, durante la quale era possibile ottenere l’indulgenza plenaria visitando almeno una delle 4 grandi basiliche romane. Attraverso la visita delle chiese i pellegrini cercavano la remissione dei peccati e camminavano per chilometri e chilometri da un luogo di martirio e penitenza all’altro.
Ispirato da questi lunghi pellegrinaggi di devozione, San Filippo Neri, nella seconda metà del Cinquecento, decise di organizzare la celebre visita delle Sette Chiese di Rome: oltre venticinque chilometri a piedi in due giornate comprendo, oltre alle quattro Basiliche patriarcali (San Pietro, San Paolo fuori le mura, San Giovanni in Laterano e Santa Maria Maggiore), altre tre chiese che conservano celebri reliquie: San Lorenzo fuori le mura, Santa Croce in Gerusalemme e San Sebastiano fuori le mura.
Ecco di cosa stiamo parlando! Non soltanto un tour ma un percorso che ci rimette sulle orme dei pellegrini del passato! Certo, oggi il tragitto è molto meno faticoso di una volta, ma non meno affascinante e denso di significati.
La visita alle più importanti chiese di Roma era d’obbligo per chi arrivava in città ed è ancora oggi una delle cose più interessanti da scoprire, non soltanto per ragioni esclusivamente religiose ma anche per godere delle bellezze artistiche e archeologiche che questi luoghi-capolavoro celano.

EXCELLENT Based on 300 reviews Posted on Carla Buhl-de VriesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We made 2 private tours with Nicole: the baths of Caracalla and the Aqueducts. We were very happy with this friendly young woman, who knows a lot about ancient history. We will certainly join again, with Nicole, whenever we get back to Rome again!Posted on Gregg JacobTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Francesca was OUTSTANDING! Her energy and enthusiasm were palpable and contagious. Her knowledge of both art and history had all of us (aged 14-82) engaged for the entire tour. I highly recommend Joy of Rome and without question would request Francesca!!!Posted on Caroline Harding-EdgarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We booked the Coliseum tour and the Rome Highlights tour for our family of 4 (girls aged 8 and 5), and would thoroughly recommend. Our guides (Francesca and Grace) were energetic, engaging and informative, and tailored the tours perfectly to our girls' interests and energy levels. The girls loved it and learned a lot - and so did we!Posted on Deepti AvasthiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very nice tourPosted on Steven BalitTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fantastic private tour of the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel with our guide, Sarah from Joy of Rome. She clearly knew her way around this remarkable part of Rome and shared her deep knowledge with enthusiasm and clarity. Thanks to her insights, we gained a much better understanding of Vatican City and its significance to the Eternal City. Though it was only a two hour tour, it was incredibly rewarding, absolutely worth it and highly recommended.Posted on Jerek PetrousTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joy of Rome is an exceptional tour company. We had great experiences, but Serena was seriously the best guide we’ve ever had in all the countries we’ve been to. Can’t recommend her enough!Posted on Andrea McCormickTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fabulous tour with Francesca - she was great with kids, kept them engaged for 2 hours, we all learnt lots and had a really great time. Thanks for making our trip to the Colosseum so memorable!Posted on Noelle BrennanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Angela gave us a fabulous tour of the Forum, Palatine Hill and the Pantheon. It was fantastic! Her knowledge and enthusiasm was far beyond our expectations! I would highly recommend her!Posted on Carolyn GiererTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joy of Rome and our tour guide Nicole made our Colosseum experience a great one. I couldn’t have imagined taking a 4 and 5 year old into the colosseum without her. She brought a cute book, had print outs that my kids loved (and she let us take home) and completely curated the experience for families with young kids. 10/10 recommend if you are traveling with kiddos.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
