  • Vatican Museums, Vatican City, Italy
    On this private tour, you will travel at your own pace, plus you can stop in some of the small rooms of the museum since you won't be with a large group. Start with a visit to the Belvedere Courtyard, the Pio-Clementino Museum, and the large collection of Ancient Roman and Greek statues. Then, continue to the Galleries of Tapistries and Geographic Maps, the grandest and most significant display of Renaissance maps. Stop in the Sobiesky Room to learn about the largest canvas painting in the Vatican. See the Immaculate Conception Room's frescoes.
    60 minutes
  • Stanze di Raffaello, Vatican City, Italy
    Your guide will focus your attention on the rooms painted by Raphael for Pope Julius II, considered the greatest works of his life, especially the Parnassus and the School of Athens.
    30 minutes
  • Sistine Chapel, Vatican City, Italy
    Hear the history, facts, and curiosities of the Sistine Chapel during your visit there. View the famous frescoes made by Michelangelo, Botticelli and other famous artists. The Sistine Chapel is also the location of the conclave, the Popes' election, so you will learn details about this unique event.
    30 minutes
  • St. Peter's Basilica, Vatican City, Italy
    Continue your tour at Saint Peter's Basilica, home to Michelangelo's Pietà, Bernini Baldacchino, and numerous monuments of Popes and Saints.
    30 minutes
  • St. Peter's Square, Vatican City, Italy
    End your tour in Saint Peter's square to see the Swiss Guards and the Pope's Palace.
    30 minutes
  • Public transportation options are available nearby
  • Travelers should have at least a moderate level of physical fitness
  • A dress code is required to enter places of worship and selected museums. No shorts or sleeveless tops allowed. Knees and shoulders MUST be covered for both men and women. You may risk refused entry if you fail to comply with these dress requirements
  • Food and drinks are not allowed in the museums except for bottled water
  • Because of the growing popularity of the current pope Francis and his intense activity in organising mass events in the Vatican some areas might get closed last minute without previous notice. This has already happened this year and can happen again during your Vatican tour: the Sistine chapel and/or the Basilica of Saint Peter might not be accessible. In case of such events our tour guide will provide you with a valuable alternative focusing the tour inside the Vatican museums.
This experience is non-refundable and cannot be changed for any reason. If you cancel or ask for an amendment, the amount you paid will not be refunded.

    La visite privée est vraiment un plus dans cette visite fatigante . Notre guide était vraiment dynamique et passionnée et nous a donné de nombreuses anecdotes ! Le rapport qualité prix laisse cependant à désirer car cette visite reste hors de prix malgré la qualité de notre guide.

    Touring the Vatican Museum can be daunting. But our guide Thomas made our day super fun and fulfilled our group’s varied needs. His explanations of the history/architecture/art/importance of the Vatican were filled with enthusiasm that rubbed off on to us. My twelve year old twins will never forget their first trip to Vatican City. Grazie Thomas!!!
