Step into the awe-inspiring Castel Sant'Angelo, where an expert guide will take a select group of explorers on a journey through its secret spaces. Encounter the historically rich Olearie, the spine-chilling prisons, and the enchanting theater of Clemente VII, that typically remain concealed from the public eye. Armed with a magical skip-the-line ticket, the group will glide past the queues and directly into the legendary fortress, originally erected by Emperor Hadrian as his eternal resting place. Over a thrilling two-hour guided exploration, the group will peel back the layers of the castle's vibrant history.
