Entire Vatican & Vatacombs: Ultimate Vatican Experience

(332)
Duration: 3 hours
If you take one tour in Rome, this is it.

For over 500 years, Popes commissioned artwork from the most talented artists and shared it with an elite circle of clerics, nobles, and scholars. Each Pope sought to leave a legacy greater than the last, commissioning chapels, frescoes, and sculptures until the Collection grew to more than 70,000 works.

Walk in the footsteps of Popes and Renaissance Masters as you take in the Rooms of Raphael and of course the Sistine Chapel from its commissioning to the finishing touches by none other than Michelangelo Buonarroti. With an expert guide, learn to discern between myth, fact, and popular Hollywood fiction regarding this epic work of art.

Gain fast-track access to St. Peter's Basilica to view masterpieces by Michelangelo, Raphael, and Bernini among others before descending to the Papal crypts below.  We conclude on the portico with an overview of Bernini’s magnificent piazza (St. Peter’s Square), the central obelisk, and the Swiss Guard.
