Awesome tour and Andrea the guide

Awesome tour! Guide was great! I learned things that most visitors (and residents) of Rome do not. The catacombs had history dating further back than almost anything else in Rome. Highly recommend!

A fantastic experience!

Marina was knowledgeable, interesting and funny. She kept us on track and shared so much that we would never have appreciated the history of this wonderful place including the the sculptures, art and architecture. The best way to see the Vatican, and for a second visit the tour made this experience so memorable!

Vatican Private Tours

Your prayers have been answered! Private Vatican Tours give an exclusive insight into one of the most exclusive places in the world: Vatican City, the seat of the Catholic Church! Within The Vatican, some of the greatest artistic, religious, cultural and historic treasures in the world exist. From sculptures, tapestries and maps to the “The Creation of Adam” by Michelangelo and “Rooms” by Raphael! The contents are as priceless as the buildings which house them. Soak it all in with a private guide!

Only with a guide are you allowed direct access between the Sistine Chapel and St Peter’s Basilica. Some of the most important parts of the Vatican Museum are not even included on group tour itineraries, such as the Pinacoteca Vaticana art gallery. On VIP private Vatican tours, however, you will be able to see them! Nothing beats exploring the Vatican with an expert guide by your side who can share all the highlights with you. 

With so much to take in, you’ll also want your Vatican private tour guide’s undivided attention. “A picture can say a thousand words” and it can evoke a thousand questions too! Reserving your Skip the line access to the Vatican may sound ordinary, but considering it can take up to four hours to queue, fast-track is a big bonus! Save your energy for exploring the art, rather than exhausting yourself in the queue. 

To appreciate stunning artwork with meaning, Private Vatican Tours deliver!

Best Way To See The Vatican

  • Combine your visits - When you buy your Vatican City tour tickets in combination with tours for sites in Rome, you often get a discounted price. Here are some must-sees to combine with your private Vatican tour: Colosseum, Roman Forum, Pantheon, Castel Sant’Angelo and the National Roman Museum!
  • Tuesdays and Thursdays are the best days to book your private Vatican tour. The crowds are generally less on these days.
  • Everyone tries to ‘beat the crowds’ by going in the morning which often means the afternoon is relatively less crowded!
  • The Vatican Museums are closed on Sundays apart from the last Sunday of the month (when entrance is free).

Prepare Your Visit To The Vatican

  • There is a strict dress code to enter The Vatican: your knees, shoulders (and everything between) should be covered!
  • Needless to say, dress according to the season. It can get hot and cold inside as well as outside!
  • Only bring the essentials - Bags larger than 40 x 35 x 15 will need to be stored in the cloakroom. You can store your bags free of charge. 
  • Wear comfortable shoes - With more than 7km of galleries, forget fashion and start thinking practical!
  • Don’t forget your camera - You’ll have lots of memories you’ll want to preserve!
  • Bring money - A souvenir is a great way to remember your visit. Rosaries, crucifixes, books, stamps, and coins (the Vatican has its own mint) are some great available options for souvenirs!
