Full description

Imagine having the paramount privilege of gazing upon the Sistine Chapel's grandeur without bustling crowds to hinder your view. Experience an unordinary sunrise tour, allowing you a deeply personal encounter within hallowed Vatican walls during dawn's early light. Alternatively, consider our evening tour that leaves doors open for tranquil after-hours visitations even when the gates have officially closed. Here’s how it unfolds on a morning journey - As Rome is bathed in first rays of sunlight; at 7:30 am — significantly ahead than many other so-called “early access” experiences embarking times. Embark on a journey through the galleries, including the renowned Raphael Rooms as you move towards your ultimate destination – the Sistine Chapel. Being among the day's first guests to trek into Vatican Museums feels exclusive, wouldn't you say? Think of it as an excusive sneak peek before other visitors make their arrival. Now just visualize for a moment - standing in silence and awe within the Sistine Chapel accompanied by only a small group of other privileged VIP access holders while everyone else is still knocking at its doors! Oh yes, it’s indeed quite contrary to what will befall when throngs pour in later during the course of that same day. Just a tad past nine in the morning, you'll be comfy and cozy in the Pinecone Courtyard. Picture this: chowing down on some mouthwatering homemade breakfast goodies while being immersed in history underneath an eye-pleasing vista! But perhaps you're more of a night owl? Let's say you decided for the dusk tour - You rendezvous with your official Vatican guide precisely at half-past three in the afternoon. Then comes one of those skip-the-line tickets that gets us right inside without fussing about any queues. We swiftly feast our eyes upon galleries worthy of kings and queens, as well as Raphael Rooms, all after most folks are done trotting around for day. After five sharp in the evening, when it's time for Sistine Chapel to shut its doors to the public 'til dawn, you'll be graced with VIP treatment. Stepping inside sans the usual crowd— just a select small-ish bunch of fellow visitors — is sure to take your breath away. From there, make way headlong for Pinecone Courtyard. As day folds into evening, ready yourself for celebratory clinks of glasses-a spritz here or a glassful of bubbly prosecco there - while nibbling on dinner from our light buffet spread.
