Moments of contemplation. Remarkable artwork, architecture and objects. A story of centuries past still present. 

If you’re heading to Rome, this is a must do. No long lines, just direct and guided access to the most hallowed and magnificent structures in the Vatican. This two and a half hour tour delivers the context, depth and meaning you want to really understand the role the Vatican has played in the lives of millions if not billions of people. Take in the multiple galleries of the Vatican Museums and marvel at the masterpieces of the most famous Renaissance painters including Michelangelo, Da Vinci, Caravaggio and Raphael. Wallow in the awe inspiring beauty of the Sistine Chapel, a 15th century chamber that remains the place where every pope is elected. And get ready for the peaceful embrace of St. Peter’s Basilica where you can sit with Michelangelo's Pietà and Bernini's altar and consider this imposing church as the seat of the Catholic world and the tomb of its many popes.
