Your experience

Get the best out of your visit to the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel with a skip-the-line ticket.

This will indeed get you into one of the most outstanding museum collections in the world.

Just redeem your voucher at the meeting point and step right into the museum to enjoy as much of its scope as you have time for.

Admire circular garden at Vatican Pinacoteca of Vatican Museums, designed by Luca Beltrami for Pope Pius XI.

Admire classic sculptures collected in Museo Pio Clementino, especially the Hall of Animals that was founded during the time of Pius VI.

Visit and/or take a ramble through the stunning candelabra in the Gallery of Chandeliers.

Feel the unique feeling of early cartography in the Gallery of Maps and find your way through papal private chambers to find Raphael Rooms! No doubt, the final obligatory point is a visit to the world famous Sistine Chapel with Michelangelo's frescoes! Dive into early history with the Etruscan Museums and take ample museum services that include a restaurant to make your day even better.

You can spend all the time you like in the museums to admire one of the biggest art collections in the world.

Please know that during Jubilee Year, religious services take place in portions of Vatican Museums and St.

Peter's Basilica where certainly we can't interfere.

Thanks a lot for your cooperation.

You must further have it clear in your mind that if for reasons outside our control entry to the Sistine Chapel cannot be allowed, there will be no refund of a portion of the fee.
