This tour of the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel allows you to skip the long lines and enjoy the art and architecture that are hallmarks of the Vatican experience. See world-famous artistic treasures as well as lesser-known but equally fascinating gems of the art world housed in these buildings.

 

Your guide will assist you in navigating the key areas of Vatican City, such as the Pinecone Courtyard, the Hall of Maps, the Gallery of Tapestries and Candelabra, and the Raphael Rooms, the public part of the papal apartments.

 

Listen to fascinating stories about the provenance and history of the artworks housed in these locations, which will provide you with insight and knowledge that you would not be able to obtain on your own.

 

Although tours are not permitted inside the Sistine Chapel, your guide would have already prepared you by using specific photos of what to expect once you enter the room. This is one of the tour’s most memorable moments.

 

Allow yourself some time to focus on the details your guide would have mentioned, such as Michelangelo’s depiction of his boneless body to indicate that he would prefer to be skinned alive than paint the Sistine Chapel again. This fresco is synonymous with his life’s work and was also the most difficult labor of love he had ever experienced.
