Avoid the crowds, spend more time in the Sistine Chapel, and enjoy a truly special Vatican tour! Our private guide gets you into the Vatican Museums ahead of the line, where you’ll explore masterpieces like Raphael’s Transfiguration, the Belgian Tapestries, and Da Vinci’s St. Jerome. Admire the Papal Carriages and stand in awe of the Sistine Chapel before accessing St. Peter’s Basilica through an exclusive passage used by very few tours. You’ll descend the Scala Regia, pass by the Pope’s office and the Swiss Guards — a route rarely offered, making this experience truly unique!

Vatican Museums
Start your tour at the renowned Vatican Museums. Aside from being the home of the Pope, Vatican city is also home to the Vatican Museums, the world’s largest collection of art with 9 miles of art that could wrap around the Vatican walls 4 ½ times! It contains 54 museums, 1400 rooms, chapels, and galleries. Aside from the renowned Sistine Chapel, the museums also display the only work of Leonardo Da Vinci in Rome, St. Jerome, the Raphael Rooms, and the Pinoteca, which contains collections of the Popes, all dating back to the middle ages and are set in chronological order.
Sistine Chapel
Michaelangelo’s Sistine Chapel is possibly the most well known masterpiece in modern day, with over 5 million visitors per year. It was a project the artist took on reluctantly because his focus was sculptures, and he would complain about the physical toll it took on his body. It is said that the design of the chapel from Pope Sixtus IV, is modeled after Solomon’s temple from the Old Testament, measuring at just larger than a professional basketball court! There are many more frescoes to admire here from other artists, including: Domenico Ghirlandaio, Pietro Perugino, Cosimo Roselli and Sandro Botticelli.

The local tour operator went out of their way to reschedule us when the Vatican made a last minute change to the availability for visitors. Our guide was excellent with both knowledge and humor. His recommendation for dinner became one of our favorite meals where we returned again.

Rahul was an amazing guide. Very patient, helpful and knowledgeable. We saw all the Vatican had to offer and more. Perfect weather and the crowds were not a problem. Strongly recommend this tour. Beware the touts outside who tried to divert us to a different tour and say we were in the wrong place to meet our guide.

Elena really took care of us. The change of times due to the Basilica closing early and then the lines! It was not her fault that the tour went way longer than it was supposed to, but she was a wonderful tour guide who was able to bestow knowledge about all parts of the museum, not just the parts we were supposed to go to but the parts they forced us to walk thru on our way to the Sistine Chapel!

Rahul was a wonderful guide for us over two days in Rome! He presented a great depth of knowledge about the Vatican, Roman Forum and Coliseum and took time to answer any and all questions we had. He told historical stories and anecdotes with humor and warmth. He was able to navigate the crowds with ease! At the end of our second tour, Rahul suggested a lunch spot close by and even called ahead to make the reservation for us! Would highly recommend his services to explore Rome, thanks Rahul!
