Our guide, Kate, must be applauded for her skill as a guide. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable, she was very skilled at remembering the people in our group and coralling folks during a long 5-6 hour tour. She was kind, funny, and intelligent. The tour itself was comprehensive and fun! The early morning start was the absolute best time to go, as it was still a good temperature and the crowds were minimal. Overall, it was very much worth our while and we will always remember it. Special kudos to the guide, Kate! She's amazing.

Enter before opening hours and experience the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel in rare peace and quiet.

Skip ticket lines and follow your expert guide through iconic galleries like the Gallery of Maps and Raphael Rooms.

Admire Michelangelo’s frescoes in the Sistine Chapel without the usual crowds.

Continue into St. Peter’s Basilica, a masterpiece of Renaissance architecture and one of the most sacred sites in Christendom.

Upgrade to include a dome climb for panoramic views of Vatican City and Rome from the top.

We had the most amazing tour guide! Anna Marie shared her joy of history and art with us. The tour location changed and was well communicated with us. It began on time and our guide even flexed for our smaller group on stopping for food/snacks.

I had no idea the Vatican had a museum and that was a pleasant surprise. It was a Saturday tour so it was pretty crowded but of course, that was out of control of the tour guide. They were kind, knowledgable and I really enjoyed it!
