About this activity
During this Vatican tour, you will visit the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel and St Peter's Basilica with an expert guide. Our Vatican Private Tour is the equivalent of a crash course in European art and history. Accompanied by our knowledgeable guides, you will get to visit Saint Peter’s Basilica, the centerpiece of Vatican City and the most important site of the Catholic Church. You will admire some of the world’s famous masterpieces, such as Michelangelo’s Pietà and several other seminal works of Roman, Medieval, Renaissance, Baroque and Modern art. The Vatican Museums are indeed one of the greatest and largest collection of art in the world. You could simply spend days and weeks inside the Vatican Museums to explore every single detail of such a stunning gathering of beauty and art works. In fact, people spent years, even their own life, exploring the Vatican. Still an expert guide can lead you through this beautiful labyrinth with no time waste, and show you the best, most iconic and admired parts of Vatican Museums, from the Pio-Clementino section to Raphael’s Rooms, to end of course with the Sistine Chapel and St Peter’s Basilica. You will have the chance to stand below one of the most iconic frescoes in the world and see for yourself the magnificent simplicity of that powerful gesture by which God, extending his hand, gives life to the first man, in Michelangelo’s The Creation of Adam. You will stand right in front of the magnificent Christ depicted by Michelangelo centuries ago in the Last Judgment and admire the unparalleled skills and vision of such a great artist.
