Tour Description
VATICAN TOUR DESCRIPTION
The two most popular tourist attractions in Rome are Ancient Rome and the Coliseum, and the Vatican.
On the Vatican Tour your guide will passionately lead you through the galleries of the Vatican Museums, providing you with historical facts, leaving you plenty of time to take photos and to absorb the breathtaking beauty of the masterpieces.
Afterwards you will enter the Sistine Chapel where you will catch sight of the ingenious frescoes by Michelangelo. Then once you are in the main Basilica of St Peter you can wonder at the emotive Pietà of Michelangelo, and become mesmerized by the swirling bronze sculptures of the master Bernini.
The Vatican Museums open to the public at 9am but customers of City Lights Tours are able to enter before all of the crowds at 8am by special arrangement. Simply choose the Vatican No Crowds 8am tour on our tours page to take advantage of this great offer! Please also be aware that we offer a deluxe VIP tour of the Vatican after hours which means that your group will have free reign of the Vatican Museums with your guide, without any other interruptions or people.
