Description

Make your trip to Rome complete by doing a guided tour of the Vatican museums, the Sistine Chapel, and Raphael's Rooms, with skip-the-line entry included. If you want a more intimate experience, upgrade your tour so your group is no bigger than 10 people.
Begin your tour by meeting your guide close to the Vatican museums. Follow your guide inside and enjoy skip-the-line entry. Receive a headset to easily hear the commentary as you explore. Wander around the museums and allow your guide to bring the works of art to life.
Next, grab a breath of fresh air at the Pinecone Courtyard and Belvedere Courtyard. Enjoy the Room of the Muses, the Round Room, the Greek Cross Room, Candelabra Gallery, the Gallery of the Tapestries, and the Gallery of Maps, and admire a panoramic view of the Vatican Gardens below. 
Visit Raphael's Rooms, painted by the master around the time Michelangelo painted the Sistine Chapel. Spend time ceiling-gazing inside the Sistine Chapel. Leave the tour with a wealth of information.
• Please Note: Due to the passing of Pope Francis, the Sistine Chapel will be closed from April 28 until the end of the conclave. Tours will run as scheduled but will not include the Sistine Chapel during this period.

Good to know before you go
  • Shoulders and knees must be covered to enter the Vatican Museums
  • You must be able to climb and descend stairs on your own to take part
  • Comfortable for groups of no more than 20 people
