Vatican Museums

The incredible amount of art & history housed in this museum makes it difficult for the average visitor to make the most of the collection, so be guided by our expertise while you walk through the infinite galleries, pointing out the most important and unmissable pieces. Learn about the secrets and anecdotes of the Sistine Chapel as you go through the Pio Clementino section of the museum, home to the Laocoonte, the statue that started off the whole Vatican collection. Immerse yourself in the galleries on the way to the Sistine Chapel, marvelling at the gorgeous tapestries and maps that cover the walls.
