  • Vatican Museums
    Begin your journey with skip-the-line access to the Vatican Museums, one of the largest and most impressive museum complexes in the world. Follow your private guide through centuries of art, history, and culture.
  • Step into the scenic Pinecone Courtyard, a peaceful open-air space framed by classical architecture and home to the enormous bronze pinecone sculpture that gives the courtyard its name.
  • Sphere within a Sphere
    Admire Arnaldo Pomodoro’s striking modern sculpture, Sphere within Sphere, located in the heart of the courtyard. Your guide will explain its symbolic layers and how it fits into the setting of the Vatican.
  • Marvel at the ancient masterpiece Laocoön and His Sons, one of the most famous sculptures in the Vatican Museums. Your guide will recount the dramatic myth behind this powerful work.
  • Walk through the ornate Gallery of Tapestries, featuring beautifully woven scenes depicting religious and historical events, crafted by master Flemish weavers.
  • Continue into the Gallery of Maps, an extraordinary corridor lined with detailed 16th-century topographical maps of Italy. The vivid colors and large scale of the frescoes make this one of the museum’s highlights.
  • Sistine Chapel
    Enter the awe-inspiring Sistine Chapel and gaze at Michelangelo’s iconic ceiling frescoes and The Last Judgment. Your guide will explain the key scenes and symbols before you enter, as speaking is not allowed inside.
