How to Reach St. Peter’s Basilica
Visit to the Vatican City will be a waste if you do not visit the St. Peter’s Basilica. The 2000-year-old Basilica is a symbol of the traditional and classical background of the Vatican City. There are primarily three ways as to how to reach St. Peter's Basilica; Buses, Metro, and by walking. So, explore the popular modes and enjoy your trip.
Bus
You can use the bus service, which is very cost effective and efficient. You can explore the beauty of the City out of the window. There is a wide network of buses that runs through the city, making it the most convenient of all modes to travel. Therefore, you can reach the Vatican City from almost any part of Rome. There are three most popular bus lines, which can get you to the Vatican. These are Bus 64, Bus 60 and Bus 40. Bus 64 halts at the Basilica and south of the piazza and from any of these bus stops; the Basilica is just a short walk away. You can even confirm the same bus from the bus driver or the local passengers.
Metro
The most convenient and the easiest mode of transportation; especially, if you are going to the Basilica. Travelers find it very easy to understand primarily because there are only two lines for almost 20 years now. However, if you take the Metro Red Line (Line A), you can get reasonably closer to the Vatican as the Ottaviano Stop is in proximity to the Basilica. They are labeled in a manner, which is very easy for the travelers to understand, for example – Ottaviano San Pietro. From here, you would most likely have to take a 10-minute walk to reach the Basilica.
Walking to the City
The weather of Rome is fantastic on most days so you can make the most of it and explore the city on your feet. Though a little cumbersome it may get, but you can explore beautiful edifices like the Colosseum, Termini Station and the Pantheon. There are many beautiful bridges to walk through.
On reaching the Basilica
It is free of cost to enter the main building of St. Peter’s Basilica. However, there is an admission fee if you have to visit the Vatican Treasury or climb the cupola. In the months of April to September, the Basilica remains open from 7 am to 7 pm and in the months of October to March, the timings are 7 am to 6 pm. There is a strict dress code, which needs to be adhered to. Any kind of provocative clothing is barred. Shoulders have to be covered and short clothes are not allowed.

Trip to Europe
Really appreciate the management and service of the agents to make our trip to Italy truly memorable. I customized whole tour according to my choices of hotels, activities etc. I got complete co operation from Nisar with good suggestions at good price. It was the best quotation I had received from all the agencies. I would definitely prefer memorable trips for my next trips.Trip to Europe
Italy 10 Feb 2019 - 16 Feb 2019 Tour was very well organized starting from Delhi till reaching back to Delhi. Flight and Train tickets were so well timed that we never missed breakfast. We reached hotels just the right time from Airport/Train station that we never had to wait for check-in in hotels. Airlines, Trains and cabs booked for transport were very well organized. Everything was on time no delay. We never missed any sightseeing because of delay in transportation. Hotels were good, we didn't spend much time at hotels as we were exploring the beautiful cities of Italy. All the information about important locations, mode of travel, availability of food, weather conditions, mobile phone sim card, offline google maps, clothing as per weather etc. was made available before we started. This helped us a lot in travelling and exploring our more in Italy. We visited Rome, Florence and Venice, two days stay at each city. Sightseeing of one day was booked by the agency and one day was free for us to explore on our own. In Rome Colosseum, was booked for day one (3 hr trip) it covers colosseum and two more spots nearby. Next Day we took a hop on hop off bus tour, covered the almost all the locations in Rome. In Florence, the first day was free so we explored the local sites and churches. Day two, we went for Pisa tour. It takes half a day to go and come back from Pisa. In Venice, the first day was free so we explored the Venice on our own. Spent the night of Valentine's Day in Venice, that was the best part of Venice. Next Day we went on a trip to Murono and Burano islands. Next morning cab was ready for airport transfer. Our hotels were very close to train stations, metros and Indian Restaurants, so we never had any problem with travel, transport and food. Everything was not more than 700m away. Supermarket and restaurants were close. Thank you Nisar from Memorable Vacations Holidays for the awesome arrangement.Trip to Europe
My trip was for Italy and it was great. Everything was taken care of by Agent assigned and was very well planned. I faced no issue what so over over 6 days of my travel.Trip to Europe
I took help of Vacactions Madcap for planning my trip to Italy and France with my wife. Amazing planning done by Saurabh and his team. Timing of flights, selection of hotels and their location and other guided tour was excellent.I wish the bond with Vacations Madcap continues for our future trips. I would strongly recommend Vacations Madcap for Europe trip.Trip to Europe
Hello Team Memorable, I visited to Europe trip organised by Memorable trip majorly Krishna, It was fully customized. trip was of 11 days in which I covered Italy (Rome, Florence, Venice), Swiss (Zurich, Interlaken, Geneva, Lucerne) & France (Paris). Trip was good with little ups and downs. Thank you so much for organizing the trip and being always available for the query during trip. I really like the availability for the staff to clarify me the things whenever needed. Only thing which I did not liked was of Paris hotel. Location was good but somehow room quality was not satisfactory. In future, I will surely go with Memorable, I also recommend same to try this once. Big Kudos to team Memorable.!! Regards, Ankit SethiTrip to Europe
We loved our time in Italy, very well organized by Duniya Safari. The good - great booking for day trips and guided tours, Special mention to Ishita as she was always on her toes to help us in all our queries,.during the stay the hotel in Paris was very small, room size was like just the size of the bed but one thing best about the hotel was its location as it was walkable from the centre of Paris.Thanks to the team assisting us at Duniya Safariand Travel Triangle.Trip to Europe
It was a honeymoon travel, and we had an unforgettable trip to Italy. Everything was taken care of by holidayhub and travel triangle. Specially the pre trip preps and on the trip Mr Prashant and Yeeshu were of great help and made all the changes required even if it was last time changes and designed the package absolutely as per our demands. Also Mr Sagar Sharma took care of arranging all the packages suitable to our need. A 5 star on the services provided by travel agent Florence and Venice are unforgettable. Specially the 30 min gondola ride and water taxi providedTrip to Europe
We had booked my honeymoon trip to France and Italy through Hub Holidays. Despite being a package tour, we had the complete independence to chose my itinerary. The hotels provided were just awesome, especially the ones is Venice and Rome. Our hotel location in Nice and Paris was also awesome. The hotel staff in Rome was so courteous that they upgraded us for a complete apartment with full amenities. To my amazement, it also had a terrace with it. Speaking about Hub Holidays, I have never had a better travel agency doing job for me. They were quick and generous while responding to any queries or problems. Keep up the good work guys. Also, I dropped my passport in Disneyland Paris and Hub Holidays helped me in getting it back and made me feel relaxed even though I thought I have lost it. Yeeshu and Prashant were too good.Trip to Europe
We booked our Italy Tour with Hub Holidays. Rohit was extremely helpful and managed the entire bookings/Itinerary pretty well. He was very supportive in managing any changes we suggested. The hotels booked were also decent with great location. Overall we had a great time in Italy. Looking forward to many more such outings. Cheers!!Trip to Europe
I went to France, Switzerland and Italy. I got a very competitive pricing from Hubholiday. They provided very nice pre, post and on trip support. Thanks Yeeshu and Prashant for your efforts to make my trip memorable. They even provided support for information not part of package such as best option to buy sim. I really liked hop in hop off bus in France and Italy, it was a great way to visit major tourist places in less time in a cost effective manner. Swiss pass in Switzerland was also great I could travel anywhere in Switzerland via it. Tip for first time travelers - make sure you know all information in detail, less vegetarian options are there specially in Switzerland so you can buy fruits, chips, etc from there or bring from India, be well before time on famous monuments, make sure to take care of your stuff to avoid any issues on the trip.
