About the tour

Step into the heart of the Vatican on an intimate small group tour that includes skip-the-line access to both the Vatican Museums and St. Peter’s Basilica. With no more than 10 guests per group, you’ll breeze past the entrance lines and begin your journey through some of the most iconic sites in the world.

Led by a passionate, English-speaking Vatican expert, you’ll dive deep into the legends, history, and artistic brilliance that fill the Vatican Museums. From the grand Pinecone and Belvedere Courtyards to the Gallery of the Candelabra, the Gallery of the Tapestries, the Gallery of the Maps, and stunning spaces like the Greek Cross Room, the Round Room, and the Room of the Muses — your guide will ensure you don’t miss a thing.

Your visit culminates in the Sistine Chapel, where your guide will prepare you to fully appreciate Michelangelo’s masterpieces, including the Creation of Adam and the Last Judgment.

From there, enjoy privileged access directly into St. Peter’s Basilica via a special skip-the-line corridor available only through guided tours. While your guide will not enter the Basilica with you, you’ll have the freedom to explore its awe-inspiring interior at your own pace.
