Rome Eternal City and Vatican City day trip by air: Saturday 16 May 2026
Visiting: Rome, Vatican City
We are pleased to announce another edition of our fantastic day trip by air to Rome and Vatican City.
Often referred as the Eternal City, Rome is the ultimate destination for any traveller, having been the centre of the world for many centuries and often referred to as “Caput Mundi”, meaning the capital of the world. Founded by the two brothers Romulus and Remus around three thousand years ago, Rome is home to many historical, architectural, archaeological and cultural attractions, some of which we will visit during our fantastic day trip in Rome.
During our day trip, we will also be visiting Vatican City, which is the smallest state in Europe. Here we will enjoy the majestic St Peter’s Square and also experience the Basilica of Saint Peter, the world’s most important church which was completed in 1676.
You will have the opportunity to see the Porta Santa, one of the doors of the Basilica of Saint Peter, which is only open during Jubilee Years. Experience the awesome masterpieces of this majestic church, including the cupola by Michelangelo and the Piazza San Pietro Colonnade by Bernini. Visit the tomb of St John Paul II and pause at the beauty of Michelangelo’s Pieta’. Let us explain the connection between this Basilica and the head of St Andrew, the cloth of the Veronica, the spear of San Longinus and the fragments of the Holy Cross collected by Saint Helen, all of which are held within the Basilica.
Our Rome Eternal City and Vatican City day trip by air is definitely an experience not to be missed!
