About this activity

This 3.5-hour tour of the Vatican Museums consists of the usual route through the rooms of the museums plus a special, rare visit to the art gallery. The tour ends in the Sistine Chapel. Combining these three sectors of the museums, you can admire the main attractions of the collections.
You will admire the artwork usually included in the standard tours (the ancient sculptures with masterpieces like Apollo, Laocoon, and the Belvedere Torso; the frescoes and tapestries of the Upper Galleries), plus the beautiful works of art housed in the less crowded Pinacoteca (including paintings of Italian masters such as Leonardo, Giotto, Perugino, and Caravaggio).
The tour will be an interesting journey through art and history, ending with the amazing Sistine Chapel frescoes by Michelangelo - the supreme expression of art of the Italian Renaissance. This extended tour is made for those who want to get the most from their visit through the huge complex of the Vatican Museums.
