This guided tour of about 3 hours will allow you to walk through the Capitoline Museums learning all about the works you will encounter. In addition, you will enter without waiting in the long queues and the guide will give you his full attention as it is a small group of about 13 people.

The Capitoline Museums are the largest civic museum in Rome. Inside you will find numerous stone and bronze statues, including bronze sculptures of the various Roman emperors and stone sculptures of Roman gods. However, one bronze statue that stands out above the rest is the Capitoline She-wolf or Luperca, which is housed in this museum and is the city's emblematic symbol.

In addition, you will also explore the whole complex of the Capitoline Hill, which was designed by Michelangelo but it was in the 15th century that Pope Sixtus IV was able to carry it out. Therefore, this museum includes a great part of the history of the city for almost 20 centuries. Thanks to this tour you will be able to learn everything the museum has to offer.
