Rejseplan
Klar til den ultimative udforskning af Vatikanet? Din dag vil begynde at møde vores personale lige uden for St Peter's Square på et angivet mødested. Derfra vil vi passere over ikoniske St. Peter's Square hjem til søndag massen, på vores vej ind til basilikaen.
For at starte din oplevelse fra toppen til bunden, tager vi din Vatikanopdagelse til nye højder ved at klatre Dome of St Peter's sammen med din ekspertguide. En kombination af elevator og trapper (231 trin) et middelmådigt niveau af fitness er nødvendig for kuppelklatring, men den panoramaudsigt over Rom og Vatikanstaten, vil blive hos dig i lang tid.
Efter din opstigning, ned til basilikaen. Betragtes som epicentret for den katolske tro, St Peter's Basilica er et must-see destination for millioner af turister hvert år. Nyd fritiden til at opdage alle dens unikke funktioner, herunder den hellige dør, Michelangelo's Pietà, Bernini's Baldacchino og masser af mere!
Før du udforsker Vatikanmuseerne sammen med din guide, vil du nyde en hurtig gåtur gennem Pinecone Courtyard. Her finder du Alnaldo Pomodoros berømte sfære inden for en sfære, der symboliserer, hvordan kristendommen kæmper mod verdens kaos.
Oplev det bedste fra Vatikanstaten med vores højdepunkter på Vatikanmuseernes tur. Spring køen over og dyk ned i skattene på dette hellige sted, guidet af en ekspert, der vil afsløre hemmelighederne bag de fantastiske kunstværker og artefakter. Følg din guide gennem Candelabra Gallery, Gallery of the Tapestries og Gallery of Maps, og beundre de antikke græske og romerske statuer, flamske gobeliner og detaljerede kort over Italien. I Pio-Clementino-museet, der er hjemsted for nogle af verdens mest berømte skulpturer, vil du se Laocoön og hans sønner, Belvedere Torso og den storslåede sarkofag St. Helen, mor til Konstantin. Gå derefter ind i Raphael-rummene og fordyb dig i renæssancens æra med fantastisk kunst og litteratur. Se rummene, som er fresker af Raphael, og beundre hans mest berømte værk, The School of Athens, mens din guide deler indsigt i kunstnerens liv og indflydelse.
Oplev storheden ved Michelangelos mest berømte mesterværk i det verdenskendte Sixtinske Kapel. Med over 600 figurer er freskoerne, der skildrer bibelske historier fra Første Mosebog til Åbenbaringen, ærefrygtindgydende og virkelig et syn at se. Fra den ikoniske skabelse af mennesket til den kraftfulde sidste dom er hver tomme af kapellets loft og vægge dækket af fængslende billeder. Bemærk venligst, at det er forbudt at tale inde i kapellet på grund af dets religiøse betydning. Din guide vil dog give et overblik, før du går ind, og vi vil også give dig et kort/uddelingsark for at hjælpe dig med at identificere hver freske, du vil se.

Valentina was an amazing guide! She's so knowledgeable about history, and it made the tour so much better. This was my friend's first time in Italy, and I haven't been here since I was in college, so I don't remember a lot of the historical facts. Remember to bring an electric fan; it's so hot and stuffy in a lot of these parts of the Vatican, it's always crowded, and we can'twear tank tops or shorts. I kind of wish that we had brought wet wipes to clean ourselves up after the tower climb, too (at least we brought deodorant). The tower climb is grueling, but view is phenomenal from up there! Save your energy and take the elevator up to the terrace. I know the tour is 5 hours and starts at 7am on your vacation, but there's absolutely no doubt that this tour is worth it!
I was so looking forward to seeing the Sistine Chapel. But we stood in line for 2.5 hours waiting to take a lift to the dome. I kept asking out guide if we could just take the stairs, but he insisted we wait for the lift. After waiting for 2.5 hours, we ended up taking the stairs anyway. By the time we got to the museum, I only had 20 minutes to the scheduled time for the tour to end. I had to literally run through the museum to see the Sistine Chapel. I was only able to walk through and see it for 2 minutes. The Sistine Chapel was the main reason to book this tour, climbing the dome and seeing St Peter’s was only secondary. I now need to come to Rome again and only book the museum and Sistine Chapel. So disappointing!!!!
Raffa was fantastic, friendly, and accommodating to our group. She was getting knowledgeable. You can always had a smile. We really enjoyed this tour.
If you’re planning to visit St. Peter’s Basilica, the Vatican Museums, and the Sistine Chapel, I would strongly recommend doing it with a guide. This was one of the most comprehensive and rewarding tours we did in Italy. There is an enormous amount of history, art, architecture, symbolism, and religious significance packed into these sites. Without guidance, I think we would have spent much of the day wandering through incredible places without fully understanding what we were looking at. We began with St. Peter’s Basilica and the Dome Climb. That includes the elevator to the roof terrace; it’s important to know that the final 320 steps are still climbed on foot. The staircase becomes increasingly narrow, spiral, and confined as you approach the top. Anyone claustrophobic should be aware of this. The views from the summit, however, are extraordinary and absolutely worth the effort. One of the biggest advantages of this tour was the early start. We entered St. Peter’s Square while the crowds were still manageable. When we emerged later in the morning, the queues had grown dramatically. Skip-the-line access alone saved a significant amount of time. It’s a short 15-minute walk to the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel. The museums are breathtaking but also overwhelming because of their scale. Left to our own devices, I suspect we would have rushed through simply trying to reach the Sistine Chapel. Instead, Loretta helped us focus on key works, stories, and historical context that we would otherwise have overlooked, making the experience far richer and more engaging. Loretta was outstanding: knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and genuinely delighted when people asked questions. Her passion for the subject matter was infectious and brought the history, art, and significance of the sites to life. By the end of the tour, we were definitely tired, but in the best possible way. There is a huge amount packed into the morning, so I would recommend bringing water and a small snack. We were grateful to have one between the Dome Climb and the Vatican Museums. What surprised me most was how much the tour sparked my curiosity. Rather than feeling like we had simply 'ticked off' major attractions, we left wanting to learn more about Vatican City, its history, its governance, and the extraordinary collection housed within the Vatican Museums. An excellent tour that transformed what could have been an overwhelming experience into one of the highlights of our time in Rome.
Raffa was amazing and very knowledgeable. She had an answer to all of our questions and kept things fun and interesting. I would highly recommend booking with her!
We did a private tour with Raffa! She was simply amazing and made our experience so special and memorable! The dome climb is a must and gives you a total different view.
The tour guide Raffa was amazing and knew what she was talking about. She helped us understand everything and answered all of our questions.
The tour guide Raffa made this experience very good. She helped explain everything to my group very well due to her knowledge. Overall this was worth it
Great tour! Lots of knowledge about every detail and good pacing around the Vatican.
Great access and wonderful explanation of the key sights.
