Private entry at the Vatican is always a special experience. Even our seasoned guides who have seen it countless times appreciate the opportunity to admire art in this setting. You may be surprised to learn that the Vatican oversees over 6 million visitors each year, so entering alone can soon prove to be an overwhelming and painful ordeal. - We recommend reserving this private tour with us to customize your experience for you and you family. We promise that this family/child-friendly setting will satisfy ever member of your group (our guides are known to keep the little ones intrigued!) Should we also mention Michelangelo’s frescoed ceilings of the Sistine Chapel?? This beautiful masterpiece needs no introduction. No line = no stress! (not to mention that you get to steer clear of the sun and unbearable heat during the summer months!) - We offer two time slots for this private tour experience (morning or afternoon). Have your pick!

The Vatican Museums and St Peter’s do not require any of my superlatives to do them justice- they are truly amazing and saturated with beauty, history and culture A special word of praise to our tour guide, Giovanni who, besides handling a quite large (20 odd) group very expertly and with great good humour through the crowds was an absolute mine of relevant information with the depth and breadth of knowledge worthy of a Professor of History or Art His genuine interest and love for the buildings and contents and their history shone through and helped towards a truly memorable experience - Grazie Giovanni per Una mattinata davvero straordinaria ed interessantissima.

The most incredible visit to the The Saint Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City where we had a tour with Carl. What an amazing guy Carl is. His passion, enthusiasm and knowledge of everything inside and out of the basilica made the whole thing fantastic giving so much detail in the all of the intricacies! If you can specifically request Carl on your visit i genuinely don’t think there’s a better guy to show you around! Thanks again Jack and G the English couple ????????
