Benefit from reserved access to some of the Vatican's top attractions with a guided tour of Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel.

Discover the beautiful Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel, and feast your eyes on the artworks of great masters such as Michelangelo and Raphael. Explore the Pio Clementine Museum, Belvedere Courtyard, and much more.

Begin your tour by heading to the Vatican Museums and be guided to discover the works of art in the Cortile della Pigna, the Hall of Maps, the Tapestry Gallery, and the Candelabra Gallery. During the tour, learn about the lives of the artists responsible for these works of art and their intriguing history.

Later, be taken to admire the magnificent Sistine Chapel. Here, take all the time necessary to learn about things you've always heard about - such as Michelangelo's self-portrait. It was a backbreaking feat of willpower – a fact you will understand after learning what it takes to create a fresco.

Daniella was a great tour guide. We learnt many new facts that we would not without her. Was lovely to finish in the Basillica

Ce qui est regrettable lors de la réservation en Belgique est que pour la Chapelle Sixtine personne ne vous informe que la prise de photos est totalement interdite. Sur place juste avant de rentrer dans le musée du Vatican le guide a informé tout le monde de cette interdiction. Il est donc regrettable que cette importante information soit cachée aux visiteurs.

Gostei muito de ouvir as informações dadas pelo guia, que era muito simpático. No entanto estava à espera de mais conteúdo e que o percurso fosse maior.

These people are very well organised, meeting place was easy to find and our guide was excellent i can’t praise her enough
