Your experience

Get to the designated meeting point and meet your guide who will take you inside the Vatican Museums.

There is immediate entry, no line to wait in.

Walk through the main galleries and catch a glimpse of some highlights of the Vatican.

Go straight to the Sistine Chapel where you can stay for as long as you'd like.

Look at the great riches inside the Chapel seen as one of the top works in world art.

Every year, millions go to Rome to see the wall paintings made by famous artists, with most focus on Michelangelo's Last Judgment.

Let your guide unveil those tales that are shrouded within the artistic creation and commission.

Note, until Michelangelo drew God, before then was never drawn with a face.

The earlier depiction only had a hand coming out of the clouds-painting downward.

Through the murals, the Sistine Chapel emerges as the quintessential example of Italian Renaissance, thereby emerging as a classic across cultures.

On its ceiling, Michelangelo painted a series of pictures that play on and about the Stories of Genesis.

Without doubt, among them all, it is the Creation of Adam that has gained maximum fame.
