About this activity

The three tour options are tailored for those who visit the Vatican for the first time and would like to learn more in depth about the Vatican. It is also for those who have already visited the Vatican Museums but would still like to see more things inside and also for those who have a short time to spend in Rome but still would like to visit the Sistine Chapel and the Basilica.

The Vatican Silver Tour gives you the opportunity to save time and to visit only the Sistine Chapel and St Peter’s Basilica in 1.5 hour. You will skip all the part of the Vatican Museums, maybe because you have already seen it or you just don’t have enough time to visit the immense art collections of the Museums. This tour includes the visit to the Sistine Chapel and St Peter’s Basilica

The Vatican Gold Tour is the option that gives you 2 hours inside the Vatican Museums, with your guide, who will explain and passionately show the best of the Vatican Museums. This option will give you the opportunity to visit the Vatican Museums Galleries, Raphael Rooms, Sistine Chapel and to skip the line for the St Peter’s Basilica

The Platinum Tour includes Vatican Galleries, Raphael Rooms, Sistine Chapel and St Peter’s Basilica Tour. A 3-hour tour discovering all the areas of the Vatican Museums. For those who would like to discover artworks treasured inside the Vatican Museums. You will see the best and the most important artworks of all the 9-mile long Museums.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and she made us feel good throughout the trip. The coordinator stayed in communication with us until the meetup was successful.

The Skip-the line was worth it enough. The tour guide was great and got some amazing information throughout the different places. Highly recommended.

Ok so to start out Ill admit that the review is 3 stars for some reasons not entirely fully down to the fault of the tour guide or group which Ill explain in a minute, otherwise would be 4-5 stars. The Vatican is a must see for anyone in Rome, it is a wonder to go and see and our tour guide Mario was very enthusiastic, knowledgeable and all in all brilliant. He was very good at pointing out the bits we needed to see and the history of the place, the stories of the artefacts and reasons for things being there or sculptured as they were. His short narrative on the Sistine Chapel outside in the gardens was very interesting and explained the meaning behind the frescos and what was being depicted he told us outside as you cant speak in the chapel. Now for the problem part. There was to be a service in the chapel at 2pm, so we rushed through the museum, which was very crowded, to arrive at 1.15 and be denied entry early as it was closing ahead of 2pm. Not the tours fault, but very annoying, given we had rushed through the museum to get there early. At this point we were essentially left with a choice of hoping to get back in at 3pm after the service without the guide for the Basilica which we did or just leave. Not that this was any fault of Mario, but in the end he had to just leave us there and we missed out on the guided tour of the Basilica which we had paid for, which was a shame as he was, as Ive said excellent. So to sum up a bit of a bum deal for us on the day, but defiantly book up and ask for Mario, just check that the Vatican isnt doing a service to ruin your planned day!

The agency which operated this tour were very welcoming at their office and communicated what was going to happen on the tour superbly. The tour leader was very informative and covered a lot on the tour. There is a lot of standing/walking involved and if older people are travelling they should be made aware of this
