Vatican Museums
The Vatican Museums house the largest private art collection in the world. An astounding number of artworks are on display including precious antiquities, frescoes, tapestries, and historical maps …culminating with the most impressive work of all, the frescoes of the Sistine Chapel by Michelangelo. With over 6 million visitors a year, it is also one of the most visited museums in the world. The line of visitors eager to get inside can stretch nearly a kilometre long, especially during peak season, with a waiting time from 90 to 120 minutes. Cut out all the frustration and stress with our skip-the-line tour and be taken right inside with an expert guide to lead the way through the vast collection. The tour ends with a privileged entrance with a passageway leading directly inside St. Peter’s Basilica, the largest church in the world.
Learn the secrets behind the Sistine Chapel and discover how Michelangelo not only included his own self-portrait in the frescos, but also that of one of his biggest critics.
It is often called "the greatest church in Christendom". In Catholic tradition, St. Peter's Basilica is believed to be the burial place of Saint Peter, who was one of the twelve apostles of Jesus. It is believed that Saint Peter was the first Bishop of Rome.
