Our complete Vatican guided tour goes beyond the expected, giving you a deeper insight into Vatican City. Visit the Vatican with a professional licensed guide, who will present you the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, and St.Peter’s Basilica. Our route through the Vatican visits all the sites you knew you wanted to see and some surprises you didn’t expect.

 

The tour starts with the Vatican Museums, where you will see famous attractions like the Raphael Rooms, the Gallery of Maps, Sala Rotunda, the Gallery of Statues and Hall of Busts, and even the Spiral Staircase, one of the most iconic images at the Vatican Museums. There are 54 galleries, or Salas, in the Vatican Museums, including the Sistine Chapel – the next stop of the tour. The Sistine Chapel with its ceiling decorated by Michelangelo is one of the most famous attractions on Earth. After the Sistine Chapel, you will get privileged access inside St.Peter’s Basilica, the grand centerpiece of the Vatican. Imagine walking inside the most massive church you’ve ever seen, filled with artwork from all the famous Italian artists you learned about in school.

 

Walk through a side entrance, skipping the line, directly inside the most opulent church in the world. Once inside, admire masterpieces like Il Baldacchino, La Pieta, the statue of St. Peter, and more. While it is free to enter, long lines are inevitable. Not on this tour though.

This Vatican guided tour offers an uncompromising, unhurried exploration of the world’s most fascinating independent state, for those who want a truly complete Vatican experience.

Sleeveless and/or low-cut garments, shorts above the knee, miniskirts, and hats are not permitted. The requirement of decorum extends also to any visible personal objects as well as similarly visible distinctive personal signs (such as, for example, tattoos) that may offend Catholic morality, the Catholic religion and common decency.

 

On this tour, some of the venues or parts of the venue may be subject to last-minute, unpredictable closures. When this occurs, we are happy to offer customers an extended tour in keeping with the advertised total length of the tour.

 

Due to increased security measures at many attractions, some lines may form on tours with ‘Skip the Line’ access.

We provide the best-quality audio systems to hear the guide. If you want to stay in the back of the group or if you want to take perfect pictures and listen to the guide at the same time, the headset is the best choice.
