Meet your guide by the Tiber river in front of the entrance of the Castle and explore together the notorious bridge and its statues. Discover the dark side of Rome through the esoteric messages hidden in the details.
Museo Nazionale di Castel Sant'Angelo

See the "secret" passage that connects the Castle with the Vatican and visit the tomb of Emperor Hadrian. Walkthrough the astonishing Papal corridors and rooms and be amazed by the Gran Loggia of Paul III. Marvel at the stunning grotesque motifs and at the illusionistic Trompe l'oile painting.
