• VIP experience in our Monolingual Small Group tour: 25 people or less
• No stress, no line with our Skip - the
• line entrance to Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel
• Self- guided tour of Grand Basilica
While reaching the
Vatican Museums, the guide will give you an overview of the
history and
art of the smallest country in the world. Once in the
Vatican Museums, skipping the line, you’ll walk through
cavernous galleries filled with
ancient sculptures,
tapestries,
maps, and
Etruscan antiquities. The most
famous frescoes in the world will greet you when you enter the jewel box of the
Sistine Chapel. Here, you’ll be surrounded by the stunning
Michelangelo masterpieces that have adorned a million picture postcards including the nine central panels of the
chapel ceiling, each depicting a tale from
Genesis (t
he most famous being The Creation of Adam). Last, but not least, thanks to a direct passageway, you’ll see the
Grand Basilica. The world’s largest church, and one of its most
Sacred Catholic sites sits atop the very spot where
St. Peter was buried. On this self-guided part of the tour, you’ll see the
church’s chapels and elaborately painted,
multi-domed ceilings as well as
Michelangelo’s remarkable
Pietà, a sculptural depiction of the
Virgin Mary cradling her son.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please mind that extra closing times may occur without notice.
