Your experience

Go to the tourist office at Via Germanico 8 in Rome.

Meet your host there and pick up your skip-the-line tickets.

Then make your way to the Vatican Museums, walk past all those long lines, show your ticket at the door and let the adventure begin.

View the large collection of art inside the Museums.

Walk through the different shows that have the Round Room and the Tapestry Hall.

See the beauty of Belvedere and Pinecone Yards and get amazed by the very detailed maps of Italy in the Map Gallery.

Walk through the halls of Pio Clementino, Greek Cross Hall, Gallery of the Statues, and Hall of the Muses.

Paintings, sculptures, and statues are seen here from artists who have worked over many centuries.

Move to the Carriage Pavilion where that collection of ceremonial carriages is presently on view.

Move to the popular Sistine Chapel, a work of art by itself.
