Explore Rome’s ancient landmarks and Vatican treasures over two days with a private guide, including the Colosseum and Sistine Chapel.

About this tour

Spend two days discovering Rome’s ancient landmarks and Vatican treasures with your own private guide. This Rome walking tour and Vatican Museums experience pairs the city’s storied streets with the art and architecture of Vatican City.

On day one, explore the Colosseum, including its interior, and the Roman Forum. Continue past Il Vittoriano and Piazza Venezia, then take in the Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon, and Piazza Navona. On day two, visit Vatican City and the Vatican Museums, where an art historian guide leads you to the Sistine Chapel. The Colosseum entrance ticket and reservation fee are included, along with a local guide and all activities.

Bring identification that matches the name on your booking, and dress with covered knees and shoulders for places of worship and selected museums. Vatican sites can close at short notice, so access to the Sistine Chapel or St. Peter’s Basilica is not guaranteed; an alternative inside the museums may be offered. Choose this Rome walking tour and Vatican Museums visit for a guided introduction to the city’s defining sights across two memorable days.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.64 from 11 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 6.8.
