Full description

Through this guided tour, you can appreciate some of the world’s most celebrated artworks: it is a journey into time and space, into history and culture but most importantly, it's an expedited journey, free from long waits in lines. Our groups consist of no more than 10 individuals led by knowledgeable Vatican tour guides who will guide you through the seven museums at the heart of the Vatican Museum complex. In an environment full of enthusiasm and curiosity, your guide will share stories and fun facts which enhance the understanding of these masterpieces residing in the Hall of Muses, Pio-Clementine Museum, Gallery of Maps, Gallery of Tapestries, Raphael Rooms, and finally to be amazed at The Sistine Chapel followed by a tour there. Because silence is required inside the Chapel itself when you stand before those paintings that are truly emblematic not only for Italian Renaissance art but also for humanity's artistic achievements as such (so Botticelli’s frescoes like Spring or Birth of Venus), however please note that explanations will be provided prior to entering with our own specially created panels used for educational purposes during visits! Finally concluding this awe-inspiring adventure with a brief insight into Vatican's history along one last magnificent sight – St. Peter’s Basilica!
