Private entry at the Vatican is always a special experience. Even our seasoned guides who have seen it countless times appreciate the opportunity to admire art in this setting. You may be surprised to learn that the Vatican oversees over 6 million visitors each year, so entering alone can soon prove to be an overwhelming and painful ordeal.

We recommend reserving this private tour with us to customize your experience for you and you family. We promise that this family/child-friendly setting will satisfy ever member of your group (our guides are known to keep the little ones intrigued!) Should we also mention Michelangelo’s frescoed ceilings of the Sistine Chapel?? This beautiful masterpiece needs no introduction.
No line = no stress! (not to mention that you get to steer clear of the sun and unbearable heat during the summer months!)

We offer two time slots for this private tour experience (morning or afternoon). Have your pick!

This was a fine tour, it seemed for the cost it was more about access to skipping lines rather than the story or additional information.

This tour is $$ - and totally worth it! Katerina was such an amazing tour guide - so knowledgeable and very kind to our children. The Vatican would be overwhelming without someone to guide you, and Katerina took great care of us and made sure we saw the most interesting things. Skipping the line is so helpful too. We loved every minute of it; would do it again! Highly recommend!!

What a great tour! Skip the line tickets are essential, and our tour guide was wonderful! She was very knowledgeable and helped us cover a lot of ground, but at our pace. The Vatican is truly amazing.

Our private tour with Barbara was awe-inspiring. Two millennia of history in a few hours. Barbara, our guide crammed all of her knowledge into our 3 hour experience, leaving is with a thirst for more!

We all were overwhelmed by the beauty and magnificence of this glorious treasure. Andrea,our guide, was the best! He was so knowledgeable about the Vatican Museum, Michaelangelo and the Sistine Chapel. I am the oldest in the family group and he made sure I was comfortable. He is a treasure as well! This tour was private and we did indeed "skip the line ".

Excellent tour and the guide Carlo was so knowledgeable and nice. It showed us more than I could have ever imagined. So many rooms and the places that the pope actually goes to and stairs that dignitaries used also. So special!!!

Interesting tour with our very nice and knowledgeable guide - Susanna. As our little group walked past horrendous queues for entry and saw enormous numbers in other tours, we were very pleased with our choice to select a private tour. Headsets are provided so we could easily hear our guide amongst the busyness of the museum hallways. Highlight was seeing and learning about St Peter’s basilica, where we continued to wander ourselves once the tour ended.

Barbara was outstanding! She was extremely knowledgeable about Rome and especially the Vatican. I certainly would take a tour with her as the tour guide again!

Took the decision to book this trip and it was absolutely the right one - this visit made our holiday to Rome unforgettable. I went with my 12 and 13 yo daughters and all 3 of us were fully absorbed in the experience, and the fascinating information provided by our guide. All arrangements were clear, the meet-up was punctual and the tour excellently organised and managed from start to finish. Our guide managed to strike just the right balance between providing the history and facts behind the exhibits whilst leading and directing the group, and allowing the freedom to explore at leisure. We loved it.

Maria was a fantastic tour guide! She knew so much about the museum, the Sistine Chapel, St. Peter’s and all the works of art within them. She made the whole experience more exciting since we knew what we were looking at and the history behind it! What a highlight of our trip to Rome! Highly recommend Maria— she was awesome!
