Itinerary
With roughly 70,000 works preserved in twenty-two separate collections, the Vatican Museums are a chance to admire the extraordinary masterpieces displayed in the 7 km of halls and corridors. Discover it all on a breathtaking 2.3H tour through medieval and Renaissance paintings, amazing galleries such as the Tapestry Gallery with the magnificent Resurrection of Christ, and the 120-metre-long Map Gallery, the largest geographical representation ever made. We will also visit the Borgia apartment, the Raphael's rooms and, of course, Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel.
This is undoubtedly the most famous part of the museum, and represents one of the most extraordinary artistic achievements in the world. It is indeed here that Michelangelo demonstrated all his art and creativity, where the artist had to paint more than 300 figures in 5 thousand square metres! With the Last Judgement, the Creation of Adam and the different scenes from Genesis, the Sistine Chapel is a sacred, evocative, impressive and extraordinary place.

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.
