Your guide will also share anecdotes about the chapel, which is used today for the papal election – Conclave.
    60 minutes

In case of such events our tour guide will provide you with a valuable alternative focusing the tour inside the Vatican museums.

    Umberto was amazing and so thoughtful and accommodating to us. We are aged 78 and 80 which presents challenges that were no problem for Umberto. He was so knowledgeable on every aspect of the Sistine Chapel and museums. He had a wonderful sense of humor and even helped get a cab for us at the end He went above and beyond what we had expected. If we get to Rome again, we will want to tour with Umberto again!!
