Skip the long lines and explore Vatican galleries, ancient statues, the Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter’s Basilica with a local guide.
Explore the Vatican’s celebrated art and architecture on a guided Rome Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel tour, with guaranteed access to skip the long lines. A knowledgeable local guide leads you through a remarkable collection of galleries and historic rooms, bringing their stories to life along the way.
See Raphael’s Rooms, the Gallery of Maps, and the Gallery of Tapestries, then encounter ancient Roman and Greek statues before entering the Sistine Chapel. St. Peter’s Basilica is part of the planned visit when access allows.

You can visit the basilica afterward if it is unavailable during the tour, though queues may apply.
Meet your guide at the Vatican Museums entrance beneath the white gate topped by statues of Michelangelo and Raphael. Wear clothing that covers your knees and shoulders, and bring bottled water if needed. Join this Rome Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel tour for an engaging introduction to some of the Vatican’s most memorable treasures.
