    Sistine Chapel

    No tour of the Vatican City would be complete without a visit to the Sistine Chapel, the most visited attraction in Italy. Your guide will tell you more about Michelangelo’s frescoes - The Last Judgment, the Creation of Adam and the Genesis - as well as the Stories of Moses and Jesus painted by Botticelli, Perugino and other Renaissance artists. The chapel is still used today, most notably for each papal election –Conclave. Your guide will also tell you anecdotes and facts about this sacred place.

    Additional Info

    • Confirmation is instant and will be received at time of booking
    • Public transportation options are available nearby
    • Suitable for all physical fitness levels
    • 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.
