Discover the figures, the technique and the meaning of the frescoes created in 4 years of Michelangelo's timeless passion on our Sistine Chapel tour. Find out more about Julius II, the pope who commissioned his works. Wander through Raphael's rooms as you let our expert guide reveal the mysteries and insights of the depicted characters. Discover how the church's admiration for art has led to such a vast collection of treasures in the Vatican Museums recovered from underground after years of neglect. ** Please note that the Raphael Rooms are part of this 3-hour itinerary but on days due to crowding, timing and direction flows of crowd traffic dictated by the Vatican Museum staff on the day, we may not be able to make this stop within the designated time frame. If the Raphael Rooms are an absolute must for you to see, we suggest you book one of our longer group tours: the Early Vatican Tour or the VIP Vatican Tour where the Raphael Rooms will be covered.**

You can spend all day in the Vatican and not make it through. This is why a knowledgeable tour guide is so important. Our guide studied art history and was able to bring the art to life and focus on the high lights, so our children did not lose focus. Also, i want to give a shout out to Through Eternity Tours which was very flexible with us. We tried to make it to Rome in December 2021. However, a family member tested positive for COVID as we were heading to the airport. They allowed me to rebook a year later. Once we finally made it to Italy, our tour had to be rescheduled because of the Pope Emeritus Benedict's funeral. They communicated with us and provided options. I would highly recommend them!

We scheduled a 5 1/2 hr of The Vatican museums, Sustine Chapel, St.Peters- yes, that is a long tour but very well worth it if you have the time and an interest in art, history, sculpture.Or, if you would like to develop your knowledge of those subjects in one of the greatest museums in the world. Our guide was Marie Bruschi she was very knowledgeable in history and in all the many different types of art you will see. She did a great job of exploring how art developed from the Middle Ages to the glories of the Renaissance, how techniques developed, how history affected art and many different aspects of the wonders you will see. Also dealing with Through Eternity tours was an excellent ecperience-Very customer oriented, returning texts, phone calls quickly, very pleasant people to work with. I am sure they are careful to choose all their guides to be as capable and interesting as Ms Bruschi.Excellent tour and company.

Amazing, nice, experienced guide who is especially good with kids knowing how to modulate the tour and find things that be interesting for them, like mommies and other stories to keep their interest. She even had blister bandages for one of my daughters. I’ve never met a tour guy who’s had that. Ulla was great. Oh yes and of course we got to see a lot more things on the Vatican than the first time we went by ourselves and got one of the audio guides, with no waiting. Highly recommend the tour. So far everything we’ve done with Viator has been awesome.
