Highlights

You will enter the Vatican that, despite being one of the smallest countries in the world, houses a complex of museums, whose value is hard to quantify. First of all, you will admire the Belvedere and the Pigna (pinecone) Courtyard, then you will appreciate the Picture Gallery. It houses an amazing collection that includes Giotto, Perugino, Leonardo, Caravaggio, Dali… impossible to describe in a few lines! Follow your guide to the main exhibitions. The guide will focus on Greek and Roman originals, various Pope’s apartments painted by Masters like Raphael. Equally important are the famous galleries of Tapestries, Candelabra and Maps.

The tour can only continue to the Basilica if all members of your private group can go down the stairs, but for safety reasons, wheelchairs and walkers cannot be brought down the stairs. If your private group includes participants with reduced mobility, we can still accompany you to the Basilica, returning to the Museum entrance and walking to it from outside. Although there is a dedicated wheelchair route, keep in mind that there may be a line to enter the Basilica. Also, keep in mind that other participants in your group will have to take responsibility for pushing the wheelchair. The latter option has an extra €50.00 fee for the extra guide service to be paid directly to the guide on the day of the visit.

Well worth the experience - Our guide, Massimo, was excellent! We really enjoyed his excellent knowledge of not only the Vatican but all of Rome, restaurants, and much more. Couldn’t have asked for a better tour! Well worth it!
