This VIP access Vatican tour is the most exclusive and unforgettable way of experiencing the Sistine Chapel with the choice to visit at sunrise or sunset. Either way, you’ll enjoy special access and avoid the crowds that pack the space during normal opening hours as you spend two hours alone in the Vatican Museums with group. In the capable hands of an expert guide, you’ll explore the halls of the Vatican Museums and discover some of the world’s greatest artistic treasures. Admire the extraordinary frescoes in the Raphael Rooms, the awe-inspiring Gallery of Maps, the Gallery of the Candelabras, and more. Then, step inside the Sistine Chapel for a memorable — and uniquely quiet — visit without the crowds. Take in Michelangelo's masterpiece with your own eyes and discover little known facts you never knew before. After the near-empty Chapel has taken your breath away, you'll say goodbye to your guide after a once-in-a-lifetime experience you'll remember for years to come.
