Tour Description

Tired of big-group tours that move from one attraction to the other before you’ve even had the chance to understand what your seeing?

This is the Vatican Tour for you.

The VIP Vatican Tour

Our VIP Vatican tour offers a more personal, intimate experience that doesn’t compromise on anything. See it all, learn it all, and feel it all.

With a maximum group size of 12, you can guarantee you’ll have more than enough time and privacy to soak up the stunning artworks and fascinating history of the Vatican City.

Our tour starts at the Vatican Museums, where more than four millennia’s rich history resides. Worried about getting lost in the labyrinth of corridors and galleries? Don’t be. Gain real-world insight into the stunning wonders of the museum’s 1000+ rooms thanks to the help of your friendly, expert guide. They’ll be excited to answer as many questions that you could possibly come up with, so feel free to ask away.

THE SISTINE CHAPEL STILL TAKES OUR BREATH AWAY…

Afterwards, we’ll head over to the Pope’s private place of prayer, the Sistine Chapel. Home to two of Michelangelo’s masterpieces, The Last Judgement and its famous ceiling, the Sistine Chapel is just as awe-inspiring today as when it was unveiled in the 1500s. Marvel at world famous frescoes and discover how Popes are elected, here in this very room.

Our VIP Vatican tour runs at a comfortable, leisurely pace and includes all ticket prices for the different sites and areas we’ll be visiting. Remember, our VIP tours only accommodate a maximum of 12 people at a time, which means that spots fill up fast.

Vatican Museums

The Vatican Museums contains over 2000 rooms and some of the most impressive artworks in the world. Our small group tour condenses down the highlights into a manageable 2.5 hours. Just you and a small group and all that art!

Sistine Chapel

Step inside the Sistine Chapel and admire Michelangelo’s masterpiece in all its majestic splendour. Your tour finishes in the Sistine Chapel, giving you time to explore the rest of the Vatican Museums at your own pace.

Does this tour include tickets?

Yes. This tour includes timed skip-the-line Vatican tickets.

Do we visit the Sistine Chapel on this tour?

Yes, we will visit the Sistine Chapel after touring the Vatican Museums. Bear in mind that the Sistine Chapel is a functioning religious place (the Pope’s private chapel, no less) and so silence is mandatory. This means that your guide will give you all the context you need before you enter.

Does this tour visit the Raphael Rooms?

It does indeed! In fact, many people prefer it to the Sistine Chapel 😉
