PLEASE NOTE: Due to the Jubilee the Basilica might not be accessible as part of the tour. Unfortunately, we know that very last minute. In any case, you can go there after the tour, queuing.
A dress code is required to enter places of worship and selected museums. No shorts or sleeveless tops allowed. Knees and shoulders MUST be covered for both men and women. You may risk refused entry if you fail to comply with these dress requirements
READ CAREFULLY: Because of the growing popularity of the current pope Francis and his intense activity in organising mass events in the Vatican some areas might get closed last minute without previous notice. This has already happened this year and can happen again during you Vatican tour. In case of such events our tour guide will provide you with a valuable alternative focusing the tour inside the Vatican museums.
This is a private tour/activity. Only your group will participate

Joseph_E, Jul 2023

Wonderful experience. Giorgio was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable. Set a pace comfortable for our group who was jet lagged. Helpful to our 79 year old mother.

Umberto is an amazing guide!

Jeffrey_C, Mar 2023

Umberto was amazing and so thoughtful and accommodating to us. We are aged 78 and 80 which presents challenges that were no problem for Umberto. He was so knowledgeable on every aspect of the Sistine Chapel and museums. He had a wonderful sense of humor and even helped get a cab for us at the end He went above and beyond what we had expected. If we get to Rome again, we will want to tour with Umberto again!!
