About the tour

Experience the Vatican’s wonders on a guided group tour with skip-the-line access to both the Vatican Museums and St. Peter’s Basilica. With group sizes capped at 20 travelers, you’ll move efficiently through one of the world’s most visited sites — without sacrificing comfort or insight.

Your professional English-speaking guide will lead you through the Vatican’s most celebrated collections, sharing the stories and context behind each space and artwork. Stroll through highlights like the Pinecone Courtyard, Belvedere Courtyard, the Gallery of the Candelabra, the Gallery of the Tapestries, and the Gallery of the Maps. You’ll also visit remarkable rooms such as the Greek Cross Room, the Round Room, and the Room of the Muses.

The tour culminates inside the breathtaking Sistine Chapel, where your guide will explain the significance of Michelangelo’s masterpieces before you enter to experience them in silence and awe.

At the end of your visit, benefit from exclusive access to St. Peter’s Basilica through a special fast-track passageway that bypasses the long lines. Please note that your guide will not accompany you inside the Basilica, allowing you time to discover this magnificent church on your own.
