Early Morning Vatican Museums & Sistine Chapel tour

Queue lines at the Vatican will blow you away, so when you see them you will have no doubt in your mind that a guided tour is the only way to do it – Crown Tours offers a skip-the-line guided tour group that ensures you won’t spend all day waiting in line to see the glories that await you.

The Vatican, as you may know, is the smallest country in the world. There are a total of 11 museums inside Vatican City, St. Peter’s Basilica and the Sistine Chapel. We've made it our mission at Crown Tours to give you the most insightful tour.

Explore and admire the masterpiece hung across the 2,000 rooms, marvel at the works of Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Caravaggio, and Michelangelo.
Pass by the Raphael Rooms, the Gallery of Tapestries, and the Gallery of Maps (itineray might change accordingly to the season) on your way to The Sistine Chapel as your guide explains the histories behind Michelangelo's most infamous work of art. 

Once in the Sistine Chapel stare in delight at Michelangelo’s famous The Creation of Adam and The Last Judgement and take some time to contemplate the Pope's private chapel, an experience you will never forget! 

The tour will end with an introduction of the Basilica, allowing you ample time to explore St Peters at your own pace. We warmely recommend to venture inside and immerse into the home of the Catholic Church, where incredible masterpieces can be admired like  La Pietà, a stunning Michelangelo sculpture created by the artist when he was just 24, and Bernini’s Baldacchino – the ornate bronze canopy that sits above St Peter’s high altar.
