From the moment you meet our expert, English-speaking guide at our entrance to when you say goodbye to them 3 hours later in St. Peter’s Square, the story of the Vatican will come to life. You’ll forget about lines and crowds as you follow a perfectly planned route through the Vatican treasures. As your group is so small, they’ll be more flexible with your needs, so have your questions ready
With 9 miles of art, over 2000 rooms and countless individual pieces, many visitors spin out of here in a blur, and the collection overwhelms them. We take our time. You’ll leave with a picture of the Vatican that is more than its artworks. You’ll explore the human story of the Vatican. You’ll discover the popes and the artists, the struggles and conflicts between them and the messages they were trying to express.
By the time you get to the Sistine Chapel, we guarantee you’ll know enough about Renaissance art that you’ll be able to identify Michelangelo’s artworks on your own. As guides are not allowed to talk in the chapel, they’ll have already briefed you on what to look for, so this is a real individual experience for many.
