This delightful tour covers all the major highlights of the Vatican Museums' vast art collections.
Your guide with a great knowledge of art and history shows you around the enormous museum and makes sure you get the most out of your time in Vatican City. Our guides on our Vatican tours are extremely well-liked and they get many positive appraisals from our guests.
Among other things, you'll get to see and hear more about are Classical Antiquities Museums, the Round Room, The Belvedere Courtyard and, of course, the breathtaking Sistine Chapel. Take your time to stand there, look up at the ceiling created by Michelangelo, and enjoy the silence of everyone else being as enchanted by this art piece as you are.
After leaving The Sistine Chapel, which is the last stop of the tour, you have direct access to St. Peter's Basilica. See for example the Pietà statue by Michelangelo, which depicts Jesus on the lap of his mother Mary. With gold and marble details all around this stunning church, there is so much to see - and therefore you can browse around on your own for as long as you'd like!
