Itinerary
The incredible amount of art & history housed in this museum makes it difficult for the average visitor to make the most of the collection, so be guided by our expertise while you walk through the infinite galleries, pointing out the most important and unmissable pieces. Learn about the secrets and anecdotes of the Sistine Chapel as you go through the Pio Clementino section of the museum, home to the Laocoonte, the statue that started off the whole Vatican collection. Immerse yourself in the galleries on the way to the Sistine Chapel, marvelling at the gorgeous tapestries and maps that cover the walls.
Prepare to have your breath taken away by Michelangelo's masterpieces, the Volta (ceiling) and Giudizio Universale (Last Judgement). The Chapel houses some of the most important and beautiful artworks of the entire art history!
The biggest church of the world, the headquarter of Christianity.

About Rome
Rome layers nearly three thousand years of history into one walkable city, from the Colosseum and Forum to Baroque piazzas and Vatican art.
Ancient Rome is still in plain sight. The Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill sit together at the city's heart, the Pantheon still stands with its open oculus, and fragments of temples and aqueducts turn up between apartment blocks. Across the Tiber, Vatican City holds St Peter's Basilica, the Vatican Museums and Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling.
Top-ranked sights in Rome: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
