Early Vatican and Private Castel Sant'Angelo Secret Areas Access
On this unforgettable experience you can enjoy Rome’s three main highlights without the crowds.
On this group tour you will get three guided visits in one. You will have an early-morning, priority access to Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel, an internal direct access to the world-famous Saint Peter’s Basilica and and the Passetto di Borgo Papal secret passage from Vatican City to the surprising Castel Sant’Angelo.
Your tour will start by heading directly to the world-famous Sistine Chapel before it opens to the general public. Discover Michelangelo’s frescos on the ceiling. The Creation and the Last Judgement on the altar wall. Take your time and enjoy this Holy Place without the crowds.
Then your guide will lead you to the world-famous St. Peter’s Basilica through a direct, skip-the-line access from the Chapel. Prepare to be enchanted by this baroque masterpiece designed by Bernini and Bramante and to admire breathtaking art works like Michelangelo’s Pietà sculpture.
Enjoy a small break, then follow your guide to Castel Sant’Angelo, one of the most surprising and versatile buildings of Roman history. From there, you will also enjoy a privileged, extraordinary visit of the Passetto di Borgo or 'Passetto' (which is usually closed to the general public) an elevated passage that links Vatican City to Castel Sant’Angelo.
