Passetto di Borgo
The Passetto di Borgo is the elevated corridor running along the wall from the Vatican to Castel Sant'Angelo, built as the popes' escape route. It opens only for guided visits.
Example
The daytime Passetto visit includes the castle, the Saturday evening walk on the bastions does not, so the two products with the same name are different visits.
