Full description

The Vatican Museums are a must-see destination for art lovers, history enthusiasts, and anyone seeking to experience the cultural heart of one of the world’s smallest but most powerful states. Located in Vatican City, the Museums are home to an extraordinary collection of art, antiquities, and historical artifacts gathered by the Popes over centuries.

Established in the early 16th century by Pope Julius II, the Vatican Museums encompass a vast network of galleries, including some of the most famous in the world, such as the Sistine Chapel, the Raphael Rooms, and the Gallery of Maps. The collection spans over 3,000 years, showcasing works from the ancient world through the Renaissance and beyond, with pieces by Michelangelo, Raphael, Leonardo da Vinci, Caravaggio, and many other legendary artists.

A visit to the Vatican Museums offers more than just a chance to see masterpieces – it’s an opportunity to immerse yourself in the history of Western civilization, the Catholic Church, and the development of art itself. Whether you are exploring the sculptures of the Pio Clementino Museum, the intricate tapestries in the Gallery of Tapestries, or the awe-inspiring frescoes of the Sistine Chapel, the Vatican Museums promise to leave you with a deeper appreciation of human creativity and devotion.

With our package, you’ll not only have the opportunity to visit the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel, but also explore so much more!

Relive Ancient Rome with our multimedia video, available daily at our office in Piazza d'Ara Coeli. This video transports you to the iconic places of Rome, offering a detailed view of what the city looked like during the Roman Empire.

Join us for an unforgettable journey through some of the world’s most treasured cultural and artistic wonders!
