What to expect

With this ticket you will enjoy a guided tour of the Vatican Museums, its Pinacoteca and the Sistine Chapel early in the morning. This means that you can enter before the official opening time where the capacity is only 10%. Therefore, you will avoid the large crowds and enjoy a much more pleasant and calm visit in a group of around 15 people. And you won't waste any time either, because you'll be able to enter without waiting in line.

In this way, you will visit the Vatican Museums, which contain one of the largest art collections in the world. These include galleries of tapestries, candelabra and maps, but also numerous sculptures and sarcophagi. You will also enter the rooms of the painter Raphael, where you will find Renaissance masterpieces that worked on the faces of Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo.

You will also visit the Pinacoteca of these museums. Inside you will find great masterpieces of art. Among them you will see paintings by Caravaggio, Leonardo da Vinci and Raphael.

On the other hand, the Sistine Chapel is a must-see in the Vatican. On its ceiling are the frescoes painted by the great Michelangelo. In them he shows biblical events such as the 'Last Judgement' or 'The Creation of Adam', both totally emblematic works in the history of humanity.
