About this tour

Begin your morning with breakfast above the rooftops of Rome, taking in a terrace view of St. Peter’s Basilica before setting out with your private guide. This Rome Private Vatican Tour with Terrace Breakfast pairs a relaxed start with an in-depth look at some of the Vatican’s most celebrated sights.

After breakfast, follow your guide through the Vatican Museums, including the Pio Clementino Museum, Gallery of the Candelabra, Gallery of Tapestries, Gallery of Maps, and Raphael Rooms. Continue to the Sistine Chapel and, when open, St. Peter’s Basilica. Headsets help you hear your guide clearly as you explore, and hotel pickup is provided. The private format lets you experience the collections with your own guide rather than a shared group.

St. Peter’s Basilica can close without notice for religious events, and access cannot be guaranteed unless full names are provided at least 72 hours in advance. Dress modestly, with knees and shoulders covered, for entry to places of worship and selected museums. Choose this Rome Private Vatican Tour with Terrace Breakfast for a memorable blend of Italian breakfast and Vatican highlights.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.40 from 10 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Rome
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.6.
