About the tour


Explore the Vatican Museums at your own pace with a private guide exclusively for you and your group. Take your time in front of masterpieces by Michelangelo and Raphael, asking all the questions you desire during this once-in-a-lifetime trip to Vatican City.

With the fastest skip-the-line access available, your guide manages all logistics, allowing you to focus on savoring the experience. Begin your visit by stepping through the turnstiles onto a vast terrace overlooking St. Peter's blue dome. Your guide will lead you through highlights such as the Pinecone Courtyard, The Gallery of the Candelabra and the Maps, Raphael's Rooms, the Sistine Chapel, and more. If you have special requests, inform your insider guide for a tailored tour to match your interests.

The pinnacle of your visit is the Sistine Chapel. Following your private tour, linger until closing time to fully absorb this unique experience.

At the conclusion of your tour, you will enjoy skip-the-line access to St. Peter's Basilica, excluding Wednesdays and special events.
