Why you’ll love this…

It’s a skip-the-line experience granting fast access to the Vatican Museums
You’ll explore the Vatican’s art treasures on a guided tour
You’ll marvel at Michelangelo’s Creation of Adam in the Sistine Chapel
The tour ends with an exterior view of St Peter’s Basilica and its architecture

What to expect

Follow your guide to learn the full story behind famous works of art along the Vatican's museum path. Marvel at the incomparable collection of the Catholic Church, with sculptures, frescoes, and, of course, ornate churches, dating back to the Renaissance.

Peruse the masterpieces of Michelangelo, and see what incredible lengths he went to in finishing the Sistine Chapel. See the work of his bitter rival in the four Raphael Rooms at the Apostolic Palace (these rooms will be visited only in the case of closure of access to St. Peter's Basilica, normally on Wednesday).

At the end of the tour, enjoy an explanation of St. Peter's Basilica from the outside, where you’ll uncover its fascinating history and striking architecture before concluding your Vatican experience.
