Private Vatican Tour

SHARE
The Vatican is one of the most famous sites of Rome, and this private tour gives you an exceptional experience of this incredible destination.

Discover the incredible artwork of the papal collection in the Vatican Museums, which covers over 2000 years of masterpieces. Visit the most outstanding works with your guide, who will tailor the tour to your interests and give you a personal experience of this ever-popular site. Complete your artistic feast with a visit to Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel, before exploring St. Peter’s Basilica to admire the church at the centre of Catholicism.
itinerary
  1. Enjoy a private tour of the Vatican Museums as you start your experience of Vatican City, the smallest country in the world and one of the holiest places in Christianity. Skip the ticket line and beat the notorious queues outside so that you spend more time admiring this spectacular destination.
  2. Discover the vast art collection of the Pope, which contains about 7 kilometres of art in total! Hear every word of your private guide and ask every question whilst your guide selects the most interesting highlights to show you. These include the Pio-Clementino Museum and its ancient statues, the Gallery of Maps and its cartographic frescoes, along with the Gallery of Tapestries and its exquisite Flemish wall hangings.
  3. Continue your tour as you reach the Sistine Chapel, a treasure trove of artistic beauty that is a must-see destination in its own right. Michelangelo’s spectacular ceiling is recognised all around the world for its artistic achievement and his famous frescoes of ‘The Last Judgement’ and ‘The Creation of Adam’ are truly awe-inspiring. Learn from your guide why Michelangelo nearly refused such a challenging commission, and why his eventual masterpiece became a cornerstone of the Renaissance.
  4. Complete your visit by exploring St. Peter’s Basilica. Admire Michelangelo’s ‘Pietà’ and Bernini’s high altar whilst you take in the extraordinary beauty of this vast church. Feel the reverential atmosphere as you stand in one of the most important places in Catholicism, and appreciate this truly incredible UNESCO World Heritage Site.
