Itinerary
Vatican Museums & Sistine Chapel VIP small group tour is the visit to the one of the holiest sites in the Christendom. You will walk through the Vatican Museums, a splendid collection of the Popes, containing classic sculptures and masterpieces from all time periods. It’s unique opportunity to admire art works by walking trough the Pio Clementino Museum, the Gallery of the Candelabras, the Gallery of the Geographical Maps, the Gallery of the Tapestries (Renaissance art), the Raphael Rooms (if opened).
A visit to the Sistine Chapel is a deeply immersive and awe-inspiring experience, filled with rich history, breathtaking art, and profound reverence. Nestled within the Vatican Museums in Vatican City, the chapel itself is famous for its ceiling, masterfully painted by Michelangelo. As you step into the dimly lit, hallowed space, your eyes are immediately drawn upwards to the sweeping frescoes that depict stories from the Book of Genesis, including the iconic "Creation of Adam," where God reaches out to touch Adam's finger in a moment of divine connection. The walls of the Sistine Chapel are equally adorned with powerful frescoes by other Renaissance masters like Botticelli, Perugino, and Ghirlandaio, which portray scenes from the lives of Moses and Jesus. At the front of the chapel, Michelangelo’s dramatic "Last Judgment" covers the entire altar wall, illustrating the final fate of souls with an intensity that both fascinates and humbles viewers.
Not guided! Due to Jubilee Year 2025, sometimes the connecting doors between Sistine Chapel and St Peters Basilica are closed, so the guides will be unable to take the group trough Basilica. No refunds will be issued in this case.

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.
