Explore the figures, technique, and meaning of Michelangelo's frescoes created during his four years of passion on our Sistine Chapel tour. Learn about Pope Julius II, who commissioned the works, and explore Raphael's rooms with our expert guide, uncovering the stories behind the depicted characters. Discover how the Vatican Museums' vast collection of treasures was recovered after years of neglect.

It Takes an Expert Guide to Navigate the Vatican Successfully

5.00This tour was fabulous and worth every penny. Our guide on May 21 at 7.45am was exceptional. She masterfully guided us through the crowds, kept up the energy and momentum and conveyed a strong knowledge of the Vatican and its history and traditions. Her sense of humor and level of engagement were excellent. It’s definitely worth going early and doing a guided tour of the Vatican because trying to see it on your own means you will face crowds and chaos. I highly recommend this tour to any traveller.
Stay away if you want to enjoy the sites at a reasonable pace instead of a race

2.00Mid May Crowds with a guide that squeezes ahead of not fun. Impossible to March through with ten people in the group following a guide with an old deteriorating red dirty flag
Great Tour and Great Tour Guide

5.00I was a little nervous when we showed up at the meeting point and the nice young lady holding the tour company sign told us she had only been living in Rome for less than a year. Turns out she was not our tour guide, and our wonderful tour guide from Vancouver joined us shortly after. Our small group tour had a total of 10 participants. We got in quickly with our skip the line tickets. Headsets ensured we were able to hear every morsel of information that our wonderful tour guide had to offer. He was so passionate about the subject matter that he even captured the attention of my primary school aged children. Highlight was when he spun “Sfera con Sfera” like it was the wheel of fortune and we got a great video! Sistine chapel was amazing but crowded and a bit dark and part of it was under renovation. We did not feel like we missed out at all though because our guide provided such rich information about the rest of the works in the Vatican museums.

5.00We had a wonderful tour with Guia who had fantastic knowledge of the history, architecture and art of the Vatican . With there being such an overwhelming number of treasures and masterpieces she curated the tour in such a way that provided relevance to the sights to come. Excellent contextualization of the art to the time and the history of the Vatican, popes and Italy. Thoroughly recommend the tour
