Audio headsets so you don't miss a single detail of our local expert guide!
Not only the complex of the Vatican Museums makes up the largest museum in the world, but it is also one of the world’s most visited, with more than 6 million people accessing it in 2018
After meeting your professional guide at our meeting point, you’ll be given a headset and you’ll reach the Vatican Museum’s entrance, in a group of no more than 20 people. This less stress guided tour will grant you a skip-the-line, saving you the hassle of waiting in line for several hours.
You’ll tour the gallery, visiting all those main spots you’ve heard about like the Gallery of Maps, the Gallery of Tapestries, the Borgia Apartments.The guide will tell you everything about the Raphael Rooms and their exceptional frescoes, including The School Of Athens, and will bring you to the Sistine Chapel, whose ceiling is one of the cornerstone works of High Renaissance art.
The tour couldn’t be complete without St. Peter’s Square the open space which lies before the basilica, redesigned by Gian Lorenzo Bernini and being itself an architectural masterpiece of the Baroque age. You’ll admire St. Peter’s Basilica(outside) that isn’t only the largest church in the world, but that contains several pieces of fine art: think the canopy designed by Gian Lorenzo Bernini or the Pietà by Michelangelo.
REACH US AT OUR MEETING POINTS:
After the recent bus restrictions issued by Rome’s municipality, we encourage our guests to save some dimes and to come to our new meeting points:they are now even easier to find and to recognize. We enhanced the presence of our distinctive pink flags to signal the meeting point and increased the staff members’ number: now they’re wearing a brand new set of uniforms, to make finding us a breeze.
