4.4

A small-group Vatican tour with skip-the-line access to Vatican Museums, the Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter’s Basilica, led by an art historian.

“Very educational. Due to death of the Pope, we weren’t able to visit St Peter’s due to all tours being cancelled. However, extra time was spent at the Vatican Museum. If you are a lover of history and art, great tour. The Sistine Chapel alone is worth it.”
