WHAT MAKES THIS TOUR UNIQUE?
 
This is the best rated Vatican Museums tour available online, consistently ranked 5 stars by tour takers.
 
 
We skip the long lines into the Vatican Museums, reserving your entrance in advance so you save time.
 
 
The Vatican Museums can often be crowded, we keep our groups small, no more than 20 pax -- to maintain quality and an intimate feel.
 

Explore one of world’s most fascinating Meccas on the Vatican City Tour. Stroll the Vatican Museums, which house over 2000 rooms and 9 miles of the most extensive collection of art in the world. Brilliantly decorated and lined with masterpieces, the Museums brim with treasures and history. They will share the stories and secrets contained within the Museum’s walls, pleasures originally meant for the exclusive enjoyment of the Pope. Experience Michelangelo’s famous Creation of Adam with your own eyes as you explore the Sistine Chapel and wander Raphael’s Rooms. After taking in the Museums, be humbled by the imposing beauty of Saint Peter’s Basilica, where you will encounter another of Michelangelo’s masterpieces, La Pietà. For a fascinating finish, you will stop to admire the magnificent Saint Peter’s Square, as your guide points out Bernini’s ingenious use of optical illusion.

As an officially licensed tour operator, we are authorized by the Vatican to skip waiting in the long line (which can last up to two hours!) to enter the Vatican Museums. The tours are always done in small groups that will never exceed 20 people in total and so your articulate, English-speaking Vatican Tour guide can personally cater to you and make your visit to Vatican City a special and unforgettable experience. Their wit and knowledge make the labyrinth of the Vatican City, the smallest country in the world, a cinch to visit – and all in a single morning!

Georgia was so funny and fun to follow. Thank you for the informative guidance. What a treat! I could not imagine navigating the many miles of the Vatican Museums on my own. Georgia not only got us through in a reasonable amount of time, but let the significance of what we were seeing soak in. She gave us just enough time at each important work of art to truly understand the importance of what we were looking at. Priceless. Worth it just to skip the lines, but also to get through the endless maze feeling energized and well-informed. Highly recommend (especially, if you want to know some of the risque secrets hidden behind such great works of art)!

Our tour guide, Georgia was excellent. She was was very informative and did an excellent job expaining the works of art without making it boring. She is very knowledgable, without being the least bit stuffy. She was great with my father who is older and was tiring towards the end of the tour. This was our 3rd guided tour while in Rome and by far the the best.

Excellent knowledge of the Vatican shown at all times. Information was given with humour and a desire to include members of the party as necessary. A superb experience.
