Description

Explore the Vatican's wonders without the hassle of long lines with this guided tour. Discover centuries of history, uncover papal secrets, and admire the artworks of the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, and St Peter's Basilica.

Start your tour by exploring the Vatican Museums' papal collection. Wander through the peaceful pine cone garden, admire the rich tapestry gallery, and lose yourself in the maze-like candelabra and map galleries while the knowledgeable guide brings the past to life.

Next, visit the Sistine Chapel and be amazed by Michelangelo's famous fresco on the ceiling. Appreciate the walls surrounded by masterpieces from artists like Michelangelo, Botticelli, Perugino, and Roselli.

The last stop is St Peter's Basilica, where you can witness Michelangelo’s La Pieta sculpture, Bernini’s Baldachin, the statue of St. Peter, and the tomb of Pope John Paul II.
