Højdepunkter

Timed entry to the Vatican Museums helps you avoid the long general admissions line and make the most of a three-hour Vatican visit. In a semi private group, follow an expert English-speaking guide through the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter’s Basilica when basilica access is available. Along the way, see highlights such as the Pio-Clementino Museum, Raphael Rooms, Borgia Apartments, Gallery of the Tapestries, and Gallery of Maps. The experience also includes a privileged passageway, available except on Wednesday mornings, for direct access into St. Peter’s Basilica. This tour is designed for travelers who want the Vatican’s essential art, sacred spaces, and papal history in a more personal group setting without navigating the museums alone.

About Rom

Rom lægger næsten tre tusind års historie ind i én by, man kan gå rundt i, fra Colosseum og Forum til barokpladser og Vatikanets kunst.

Det antikke Rom er stadig synligt overalt. Colosseum, Forum Romanum og Palatinerhøjen ligger tæt sammen i byens hjerte, Pantheon står endnu med sin åbne oculus, og rester af templer og akvædukter dukker op mellem boligblokkene. På den anden side af Tiberen rummer Vatikanstaten Peterskirken, Vatikanmuseerne og Michelangelos loft i Det Sixtinske Kapel.

Top-ranked sights in Rom: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
