In evidenza
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.

Itinerario
Meet your guide near the entrance to the Vatican Museums. Look for the exact location on your booking voucher, then get ready to enter security with your group and begin exploring the vast museum complex.
Before entering the extensive halls of the Vatican Museums, join your guide on a walk through the stunning Pinecone Courtyard. Here you'll have a chance to marvel at Arnaldo Pomodoro's famous ''Sphere within a Sphere''
With a semi private group, use timed entry tickets and delve into the treasures of the Vatican Museums. Enjoy a guided tour by an expert who will reveal the secrets behind the stunning artworks and artifacts. Follow your guide through the Candelabra Gallery, Gallery of the Tapestries, and Gallery of Maps, marveling at the ancient Greek and Roman statues, Flemish tapestries, and detailed maps of Italy. In the Pio-Clementino Museum, home to some of the world's most famous sculptures, you'll see Laocoön and His Sons, the Belvedere Torso, and the magnificent sarcophagus of St. Helen, mother of Constantine. Next, enter the Raphael Rooms and immerse yourself in the Renaissance era of amazing art and literature. See the rooms frescoed by Raphael and admire his most famous work, The School of Athens, as your guide shares insights into the artist's life and influences.
Enter the Sistine Chapel to see Michelangelo’s ceiling and Last Judgment. Since speaking is not allowed inside this sacred space, your guide explains the major details to your semi private group before you enter.
(excluding Wednesdays)When available, continue through a privileged passageway into St. Peter’s Basilica. This exclusive route connects the Vatican Museums directly to the basilica and makes the transition smoother. End your tour inside St. Peter’s Basilica, one of the most significant churches in Christianity. After the guided portion, you’re free to admire the chapels, sculptures, vast nave, and sacred atmosphere at your own pace. Please note: St. Peter’s Basilica is not accessible on Wednesdays due to the Papal Audience and may close unexpectedly on other days. In such cases, your guide will adapt the itinerary to ensure a full and enriching experience elsewhere within the Vatican.

About Roma
Roma sovrappone quasi tremila anni di storia in una città da girare a piedi, dal Colosseo e dal Foro alle piazze barocche e all'arte del Vaticano.
L'antica Roma è ancora sotto gli occhi di tutti. Il Colosseo, il Foro Romano e il Palatino sorgono insieme nel cuore della città, il Pantheon si innalza con il suo oculo aperto, e frammenti di templi e acquedotti spuntano tra i palazzi. Oltre il Tevere, la Città del Vaticano custodisce la basilica di San Pietro, i Musei Vaticani e il soffitto della Cappella Sistina affrescato da Michelangelo.
Top-ranked sights in Roma: Colosseum, Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel.
