On this guided tour of the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel, we'll see one of the most important art collections in the world. It also includes priority entry!
Tour Details
At the indicated time, we'll meet at a strategic location near the Vatican to begin our guided tour. Are you ready to explore one of the largest museums in Europe?
We'll have preferential access to the Vatican Museums, thus avoiding the long queues that form at the entrance to the Catholic Church's largest art collection. We'll be able to admire sculptures, paintings and other works of art from different periods.
However, this place is not just about grandeur. It also has a dark past of stories of deception and even lust. We'll discover all the details during the tour of the Vatican.
Of course, we'll also visit the Sistine Chapel, which is famous for Michelangelo's frescoes. In addition to housing some of the most famous paintings of all time, this is where the conclaves are held to elect the new Pope. The guide will explain this famous room to us before or after we enter it, thus respecting the Vatican's rules of silence and decorum.
After a guided tour of the Vatican lasting between 2.5 and 3 hours, we'll conclude the tour by saying goodbye inside the museum itself.
