Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel


Tour Description:

Explore the Colosseum and Ancient centre of the Roman world, the Palatine Hill and Roman Forum.
Avoid the Long Lines with our VIP entrances.
The world’s smallest state has the largest and greatest museum and holds some of the world’s finest art. Our guides take you exploring history, art, religion and politics revealing the secrets behind these artists and masterpieces many of which were commissioned by the Catholic Church. Once considered the continuation of the Roman Empire the Church was a major influence in the world of culture, religion and art. From Michelangelo’s painting techniques and the restoration of the Sistine chapel, Raphael’s frescos, the gallery of Maps and Tapestry and to Roman and Greek Art and Sculpture, our guides give you an opportunity to understand and explore this vast collection.

Michelangelo’s Sistine chapel is a place to reflect and with an insight into the artist’s art, you have the chance to touch not only the hand of God, but also the world of a master artist. The centuries of construction, restoration, decoration, and collecting that make up these palaces, apartments, museum and chapels should not be passed by.

Constantine commissioned the first Basilica of St Peter on the site where the apostle Peter was martyred by the emperor Nero in 324 AD. This amazing and grand St Peter’s church completed in 1626 after well over 100years of construction and various design adaptations such as Raphael’s lengthening and Michelangelo’s Dome. St Peter’s architecture is an art form in a category of its own. We take you through an inside history of artists’ secrets and knowledge where perception of height and length is challenged and you will be awed learning the hidden truths we reveal.

Come explore with us.
