Description

The Sistine Chapel and The Vatican Museums are two of the most iconic places to experience while in Rome. Filled with history, culture and religious power, there is no other place in the Eternal city that is able to concentrate so many artistic treasures. Our professional guide will pick you up in front of St. Peter’s square and escort you to the museum's entrance. Tickets are included so you don’t have to worry to book them in advance. Enjoy the 2.5h guided tour appreciating some of the most important painted masterpieces in the world, like Michelangelo’s last judgement in the Sistine Chapel and Raphael’s ‘The School of Athens’ but also Caravaggio’s ‘The Entombment of Christ’ and Leonardo’s ‘St Jerome in the Wilderness’. Among the sculptures you won’t miss the famous ‘Belvedere Torso’ and ‘Laocoön and His Sons’. If you love art and classic culture this tour should not be missed!

A Perfect Family Tour of the Vatican with Richard

We had an amazing tour of the Sistine Chapel and Vatican Museums with Richard—our whole family loved him! Even our teenagers were big fans, noting how he spoke to them as individuals, not just “the kids.” Richard was warm, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable. By the end, he felt like a family friend. He went above and beyond to tailor the experience to us—offering helpful advice on how to avoid crowds, stay cool, and make sure we saw everything we’d hoped for. Richard truly made our time in Italy more meaningful and memorable, and he’s one of our all-time favorite guides!

We hope to welcome you back for more incredible experiences in Italy!
