Walk through Raphael’s Rooms.

The artist was decorating them at the very same moment Michelangelo was painting the Sistine Chapel.

Then take some time to look up at the ceiling inside the Sistine Chapel at what Michelangelo wrought.

Choose an option that permits access to the direct skip-the-line way from the Vatican Museums if you plan on visiting St.

Peter’s Basilica after the tour.
