Overview
The Vatican museums are one of the world's most visited museum complexes and undoubtedly on Rome's "must see" list. Yet with long lines, crowds and its sheer scale, it is easy for people to end up overwhelmed and exhausted. Don't let that happen to you! Imagine walking through these magnificently adorned halls without the noise of hundreds of bustling tourists; It's almost like having the place to yourself.
You will visit the St. Peter's Basilica when only 10% of the usual crowds are present, with your own private tour guide.
During the Jubilee, there may be unexpected last-minute closures of St. Peter's Basilica. In such cases, our guide will provide an explanation of the Basilica from St. Peter's Square. Refunds will not be issued, but additional time will be dedicated to exploring the Vatican Museums.
