Good to know before you go
  • During the Sede Vacante period, the Sistine Chapel will be closed to the public without prior notice due to the Papal Conclave (the election of a new Pope). As this decision is made solely by the Vatican, access to the Sistine Chapel is not guaranteed during this time. Please note that no refunds or discounts will be provided in the event of such closures.Please carry your ID's with you.
  • DRESS CODE: Knees and shoulders have to be covered ( it is MANDATORY )
  • St. Peter's Basilica may close without notice due to religious events, so it is not included in the tour.
  • Access to the Vatican Museums is strictly regulated by timed tickets, so late arrivals may not be admitted.
