Most travelers can participate

The Basilica is not included in this tour due to the Jubilee new access rules. You can visit the Basilica by going to Saint Peter's Square and queueing there
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 your Vatican tour: the Sistine chapel and/or the Basilica of Saint Peter might not be accessible. 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

Excellente visite avec Paola

Cendrine_N, Jun 2024

Excellente visite guidée par Paola. C'est une guide sympathique et agréable. Bien que le prix soit trop élevé, nous avons passé un très bon moment sans voir le temps passé et cela fait la 2ème fois que nous visitons le Vatican. Le passage du contrôle a été très rapide grâce à la file prioritaire. Paola nous a fait une visite sur mesure, selon nos attentes et avec des explications claires, détaillées et captivantes. Elle s'est attardée sur des lieux qui nous intéressaient tout particulièrement. Nous n'avons pas visité ensembles ni la grotte ni les trésors de la basilique Saint Pierre. Merci Paola pour ce moment très enrichissant
