Meet at our comfortable offices less than a block from the museum entrance. Join our small group Vatican tour in the early morning with a top-notch tour guide and get early entrance to the Sistine Chapel, Vatican Museums & Raphael Rooms. In a small group, you will be able to discover with no rush the extraordinary abundance of history and art.
Your guide will tour you through these corridors and halls, pointing out the exhibits on display. Once through, the Sistine Chapel awaits you.
The finale of our early entry Vatican tours culminates in St. Peter’s Basilica. Majestic and inspired, it is the perfect place to come full circle on the morning’s itinerary. Feast your eyes on Michelangelo’s Pietà and admire the stunning interior of the dome he designed, as well as Bernini’s massive bronze baldachin sitting over the Pope’s private alter directly above St. Peter’s tomb and other little-known details that can only be spotted when inside!

Michele, our tour guide through the Vatican and St. Peter’s Basilica was incredible. His art history knowledge was off the charts and he had so much amazing information about every single piece of art in that whole place! We couldn’t have been more impressed with him and all of the impressive masterpieces of Michelangelo and many more. Definitely rate this tour a five star. Perfect size of group about 15 people. Take this tour!!

We had the most knowledgeable, animated and Intuitive guide who spoke clearly, who was caring for her guests and who we recommend highly as an ambassador to “What a Life Tours.” Thank you Valentina!

Definitely recommend the early morning tour as the line to enter the Vatican without a tour was several hundred people long.
Loved St. Peter’s Basilica and the grounds. The rest of the Vatican is basically a museum with tens of thousands of pieces of art. Didn’t realize this before we went. By the time we got to the Sistene Chapel, it was underwhelming due to all the art we had already seen.
Would definitely recommend visiting the Vatican though, because, how can you not?!?

It was not too crowded at this time of the day in June. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and informative. The meeting spot was the office which was easy to find. The lines weren’t very long.

Our guide Ilardia was informative, efficient, and friendly. Choosing to do the 8am tour was the right decision, the crowds were insane.
