Inside the Vatican Museums the tour covers the most important masterpieces in the museum. You will visit the Gallery of Candelabras, Room of the Muses, Gallery of Tapestries, Gallery of Maps, and much more.
The English-speaking tour guide will lead you through the rooms and courtyards leading to the Chapel. The Sistine Chapel is a unique and fantastic experience that you will never forget.
After the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel the tour will walk through St. Peter’s Basilica, the world’s most famous church and symbol of the Vatican City, an enclave of Rome. The Basilica is the largest religious building ever built and it remains one of the holiest sites in Christianity.
St. Peter’s Basilica stands on the traditional site where Peter – the apostle who is considered to be the first pope – was crucified and buried. St. Peter’s tomb is under the main altar. Many other popes are buried in the Basilica.
Originally founded by Constantine in 324, St. Peter’s Basilica was rebuilt during 16th century by Renaissance masters including Bramante, Michelangelo and Bernini.
