    First up on the tour will be an array of ancient Roman and Greek sculptures from excavations across Rome. The Vatican held the rights to all archaeological discoveries when the Popes ruled Central Italy. This part of the tour will focus on the most important of these, including the Belvedere Apollo, the Torso, the busts of Claudius and Hadrian and the sarcophagi of Helen and Constance, the mother and daughter of Emperor Constantine. Next you’ll enter the Room of Animals followed by the Gallery of the Candelabra where you can view the inspiring statues of Diana of Ephesus, the Muses and many Greek philosophers. After the Gallery of the Candelabra, you’ll view the Gallery of Tapestries, the Sobieski Hall and Raphael’s Rooms. The latter were decorated by Raphael for Pope Julius II, who used the rooms as his private apartments. These rooms are home to two of Raphael’s greatest works: the Parnassus and The School of Athens.

Es la pero agencia que hemos contratado un tour en la vida !! El taxi llegó tarde y les avisamos y no nos esperaron, entiendo que tienen que ser puntuales el tour iniciaba a las 10, llegamos 10:10, no nos quieren regresar el dinero ni re acomodar en ningún otro grupo. En una ciudad como Italia que viven del turismo deberían ser más tolerantes o más accesibles ! Les preguntamos que si podían salir por nosotros y no pueden, que si nos podían aunque sea dar el ticket para entrar al Vaticano y tampoco quieren ! No dan ni una sola opción. LA PEOR EXPERIENCIA EN TOURS QUE HEMOS TENIDO EN LA VIDA ! NO000O AGENDEN CON ELLOS ! A la vuelta del Vaticano hay una agencia con muchas opciones de idiomas, el mismo recorrido, muchos horarios y cuesta la mitad de precio

Super visite avec Paula qui connaît le Vatican comme sa poche. Elle connaît les petits endroits pour éviter la foule, nous a fait faire un petit détour pour voir des pièces extraordinaires. Une super accompagnatrice pour cet endroit époustouflant.

Our tour guide Thomas was great! He was so knowledgeable and made it a fun informative tour. We did the vatican museum and St Peter's Basilica. We had a 14 year old and she was never bored. We all loved it thanks to our guide. He was very patient and took his time making sure we saw everything.
