-Enjoy the Museums without the crushing crowds and in an intimate group of maximum 15 people.
-With Skip the Line Access and pre-reserved tickets, you won’t have to wait in long general access lines.
-Discover Vatican City’s crown jewels—the Vatican museums and the Sistine Chapel—in more peace.
-Go at your own pace and get all of your questions answered by your entertaining, expert tour guides
Experience the Vatican at night! This is the time when the Vatican palaces are more peaceful, tranquil, and lovely and quieter than regular visiting hours.
We start at the Vatican Museums, part of the Papal Palaces. In echoing, elaborate halls and galleries, your Vatican expert will bring the Church’s fascinating history to life—from St. Peter’s martyrdom to the modern Vatican City. Since your group is a maximum of just 15 people, you’ll have plenty of time to get all of your questions answered.
You’ll also explore some of the finest ancient sculptures and Renaissance art in the world, including Raphael’s School of Athens, the Hellenistic Laocoön, and the beautiful Apollo Belvedere.
The pièce-de-resistance of your experience, of course, is the Sistine Chapel, the private chapel of the Pope. In the evening light—and without the tourist hordes—get a sense of the kind of intimate atmosphere the Pope himself would have enjoyed here. As you admire Michelangelo’s famous frescoes, your Vatican expert reveals their stories, secrets and what makes them so special.
