Your experience

Skip the line to enter the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel on a guided tour that includes St.

Peter's Basilica.

Use your ticket for a 24 or 48-hour hop-on hop-off sightseeing bus to see all the major attractions at your own pace.

Discover why millions flock to the Vatican each year, captivated by art and architecture, on this guided tour of the Vatican Museums.

See inside the museum that houses ancient art—the single largest collection of ancient art in the world—where guides will take you into specific galleries covered from floor to ceiling with frescoes, statues, tapestries, and historical maps.

Some highlights include la Pinacoteca Vaticana (the Holy See Gallery) and la Biblioteca Vaticana (the Vatican Library).

Directly before entering the Sistine Chapel because of lack of space in this tiny chapel to view masterpieces by Michelangelo as well as works by Botticelli, Ghirlandaio, Pinturicchio, and Perugino.

Gaze at Michelangelo's ceiling from the floor, enjoying an experience that will stay with you for a long time.

After this, use the open-top tour bus to see everything the Vatican has to offer.
