Additional Information & Description
The Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore brings together sacred art and the religious heritage of Rome’s largest Roman Catholic church dedicated to the Virgin Mary. One of the world’s oldest and most important Marian shrines, it anchors a package that pairs the basilica with your choice of the Colosseum or the Pantheon. The two alternatives take the second part of your visit in different directions: ancient Rome’s archaeological sites or the history of a single celebrated building.
Inside the basilica and its museum
Priority entry covers the basilica and its museum areas, with access to the Blessing Loggia, the Hall of Popes and Bernini’s Staircase. In the loggia, look for the “Miracle of the Snow” mosaic, a specific highlight of the visit. Walk through the chapels, then explore the artifacts and objects in the Liberian Museum, also known as the Polo Museale Liberiano della Basilica. Together, these spaces extend the visit beyond the church interior into its collections and other named areas.
Choose the Colosseum, Forum and Palatine Hill
The Colosseum option includes entry to three ancient Roman sites, beginning with a multimedia presentation about ancient Rome at the Touristation Aracoeli office, where assistance is included. Continue to the Roman Forum, once the center of the city’s political, commercial and religious life. Its archaeological landmarks include the tomb of Julius Caesar. The route then takes you to Palatine Hill before entry to the Colosseum, the largest Roman amphitheater. This choice combines an introductory film with time exploring the sites themselves.
Choose the Pantheon with an audio guide
The alternative is a fast-track ticket to the Pantheon with an audio guide app. As you walk through one of Rome’s best-known buildings, the commentary traces its history from the Roman Empire to the present day. This option focuses on the Pantheon itself, with the app providing the historical narration during your visit.
