Overview
Join this off-the-beaten-path private Vatican tour and get an unusually quieter look into the world of the Catholic Church and the Popes, away from the busy galleries and usual herd of tourists.
Enter with skip-the-line tickets and visit areas within the museum that most never take the time to see, plus the highlights.
The tour will begin in the Gallery of Paintings where you’ll be in awe and inspired by Raphael, Caravaggio, Leonardo da Vinci and Tiziano’s masterpieces.
Head to the Carriage Pavilion that houses the various vehicles used by the Popes over the years.
Pass through the Courtyard of the pine cone and onto the recently, re-opened to the public, New Wing to see a large collection of ancient statues.
It would not be a tour to the Vatican without seeing the spectacular Sistine Chapel. As there is no talking inside, you can marvel at its stunning frescoes and take in the atmosphere being in complete silence.
You are sure to love the beauty of the Vatican City.
