Highlights

Start your day with first access to the Vatican Museums—no waiting in line, no crowds. Join a small group tour with a knowledgeable, English-speaking guide and explore the Vatican’s most iconic masterpieces before the rush begins. Choose between two group sizes—intimate (up to 10 guests) or group (up to 20 guests)—for the experience that suits you best. Your expert guide will lead you through the galleries with engaging stories and insights, revealing the legends, symbolism, and history behind the treasures of the Museums. At the tour’s grand finale, step into the awe-inspiring Sistine Chapel and witness Michelangelo’s masterpieces, including The Creation of Adam and The Last Judgment. Now ALWAYS included: skip-the-line access from the Vatican Museums directly into St. Peter’s Basilica. While this access does not include a guided tour, it allows you to bypass the long lines and enter the Basilica at your own pace.

  4. The most famous wing of the Vatican Museums, the Pio Clementino museum contains much of the Museum's most important highlights. Your guide will take you through the Room of the Animals, where you can spot the life-like statues of fauna from around the world. Head to the Octagonal Courtyard where a small fountain trickles in the background of famous statues like the Laocoonte and Apollo Belvedere. Don't forget to look at the Candelabra Gallery - master painters decorated these ceilings to create the illusion of a 3D effect centuries ago!

About Rom

Rom schichtet fast dreitausend Jahre Geschichte in einer Stadt der kurzen Wege, vom Kolosseum und Forum bis zu Barockplätzen und Vatikankunst.

Das antike Rom liegt noch immer offen vor einem. Kolosseum, Forum Romanum und Palatin liegen gemeinsam im Herzen der Stadt, das Pantheon steht mit seinem offenen Opaion noch heute, und Reste von Tempeln und Aquädukten tauchen zwischen Wohnhäusern auf. Jenseits des Tibers birgt die Vatikanstadt den Petersdom, die Vatikanischen Museen und Michelangelos Deckenfresko in der Sixtinischen Kapelle.

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