Your experience

Get ready for the surprise of a lifetime with this kid-centric private Vatican Museums tour – 2.5 hours that includes the Sistine Chapel.

Imagine your kids mesmerized by rich traditions and ancient wonders, turned into an engaging learning process by a local English-speaking expert.

Your family’s going on a tour that’s designed for up to 15 participants to get the promise of an unforgettable experience.

Sightseeing, especially with long lines to see things that might not interest them, can overwhelm kids at the best of times.

But with this tour, it will be them at the heart of the adventure.

With fast-track entry to attractions, there'll be no tedious wait or restless fidgeting in lengthy lines for tickets.

It includes interactive visual learning tools, pop-up books, iPad games, and trivia, all wrapped into an engaging insight into ancient life.

You’ll be taken through the Vatican Museums for an exhilarating experience.

Children will go through a discussion based on the very interesting history of Roman civilization with a treasure hunt theme.

With the great works of Michelangelo, Raphael, da Vinci, Caravaggio, and so many other artists, your family will get an experience/understanding of what ancient life was all/like all about, from an artist’s perspective to that of a parent, a child or even an emperor or soldier.

Know before you go

  • Please note:
  •  All visitors must pass through airport-style security. During high season the wait at security may be up to 30 minutes.
  • Due to the increasing popularity of Pope Francis and the increased activity in organizing mass events at the Vatican, some areas may be closed at the last minute without prior notice. This has already occurred this year and could happen again during your Vatican tour. In these cases, the Sistine Chapel might not be accessible. If this occurs your tour guide will provide you with a valuable alternative concentrating the tour inside the Vatican Museums.
  • A dress code for both men and women requires shoulders and knees to be covered. Shorts and skirts are fine but must cover the knees.
  • This tour is not suitable for kids under 5 years of age.
