“Art is beauty, the perpetual invention of detail, the choice of words, the exquisite care of execution.”
(Théophile Gautier)
Passion, professionalism and value to people: Saints Tour is a steady reality, born from the long-standing activity of the Capriotti family, specialized in religious articles and souvenirs’ trade.
From the privileged point of view of Piazza Pio XII – overlooking the grandiose Bernini colonnade, and just in front of St. Peter’s Basilica – over the years, we have had the opportunity to meet thousands of tourists and visitors on their way back from the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel. Thanks to them, we have been able to collect valuable information, considerations, impressions and criticisms, allowing us to improve more and more every day.
Our experience is the result of a long and accurate comparison with other realities: all this has allowed us to create a tailor-made service, perfectly functional, absolutely effective and each time more and more involving. From our flagship guided tour of Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel, to the exclusive Good Morning Vatican, to the tours specifically conceived for families; from strolls in the very heart of Rome, to private tours carefully planned to meet the needs of all our customers: Saints Tour – with great care and passion – offers its professionalism as well as the experience acquired over the years to tourists and visitors.
