Hoogtepunten

Join this extended fast access tour of the Vatican in the company of a very knowledgeable English-speaking guide. On most of the Vatican tours there is only enough time to see the highlights of the numerous treasures housed in the nine miles of galleries. On this tour you see the “must see” artworks, but much more as we take you on a journey through the Vatican Art Gallery, the Sistine Chapel,Saint Peter’s Basilica with the Square and the majestic Dome. Enjoy the visit of some of the world’s most significant works of art and hear some of the history and stories surrounding the magnificent locations where they are housed. Climb up the 281 steps to the highest point of the Dome for one of the best views of the entire city of Rome, and your guide will show you landmarks and points of interest from this birds-eye view.

  3. Let's start to explore the Dome! Short to attend as you may be there before the standard daily hoards arrive. enclosed within the tour is that the elevator ride to the primary level wherever you find about the dome with its beautiful mosaics and elaborations. From ground level they're impressive; from up shut you'll extremely appreciate the mastery that went into making such elaborate work. Then prepare yourself for the climb up the 281 steps which will take you to the highest of the dome. The guide can tell you what to see for once you reach the top: spectacular views of St. Peter’s Square; the marvelous read on the long, straight avenue that Mussolini bulldozed which ends up in St. Peter’s and therefore the long distance views across the river to the terribly centre of ancient Rome. positively the most effective viewing purpose within the whole of Rome!

About Rome

Rome legt bijna drieduizend jaar geschiedenis in één stad die je te voet beleeft, van Colosseum en Forum tot barokke pleinen en Vaticaanse kunst.

Het oude Rome ligt nog altijd open en bloot. Het Colosseum, het Forum Romanum en de Palatijn staan samen in het hart van de stad, het Pantheon prijkt nog steeds met zijn open oculus en tussen de woonblokken duiken brokstukken van tempels en aquaducten op. Aan de overkant van de Tiber herbergt Vaticaanstad de Sint-Pietersbasiliek, de Vaticaanse Musea en het plafond van Michelangelo's Sixtijnse Kapel.

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