    Sistine Chapel

    The Majesty of the Sistine ChapelStep into the Sistine Chapel, the crown jewel of the Vatican. Gaze up at Michelangelo’s breathtaking ceiling, where scenes like The Creation of Adam unfold with stunning detail. Behind the altar, the powerful Last Judgment covers the entire wall, depicting souls rising to heaven and falling to damnation.

    If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

    The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
