Explore the heart of the Catholic world with a guided tour of the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel, with access to St Peter's Basilica included. Discover the history, mystery, and masterpieces of this powerful city-state in the centre of Rome.

Being the burial place of St Peter of Rome, the Vatican has always been considered a holy city with its astonishing gallery of statues, maps, tapestries, and the Raphael's rooms. During your visit to the Vatican Museums, you will have the opportunity to learn about the great artists who helped embellish one of the most fascinating sovereign states in the world. Prepare yourselves for a Stendhal syndrome effect as you enter the Sistine chapel and lift your head up to the most-famous and most-admired ceiling in the world. Immerse yourselves into the “Last judgment”, the seemingly never-ending fresco magnificently adorned by Michelangelo’s life-like, potent figures of Adam, God and Saints, and try to spot the artist’s self-portrait on the torso of Saint Peter.

Your journey concludes with self-guided access to St. Peter’s Basilica, where you can admire the incredible mosaics, Michelangelo’s Pietà, and Bernini’s Baldachin in all their glory.
