Il cortile della "Pigna", creato dall'area del XVI secolo del "Belvedere"
La Galleria degli Arazzi dei Musei Vaticani espone splendidi arazzi del XV e XVI secolo, intrecciati in modo intricato con scene tratte da narrazioni bibliche e storiche. Ispirata ai disegni della scuola di Raffaello, questa galleria mette in risalto la raffinatezza artistica e la narrazione del Rinascimento.
La Galleria delle Carte Geografiche, all'interno dei Musei Vaticani, espone una straordinaria collezione di carte topografiche dell'Italia. Create nel XVI secolo sotto Papa Gregorio XIII, queste mappe splendidamente dipinte si estendono per 120 metri, offrendo un'istantanea geografica unica dell'Italia del passato.
La Galleria dei Candelabri fa parte dei Musei Vaticani ed espone una ricca collezione di statue, sarcofagi e rilievi greci e romani. Prende il nome dai grandi candelabri in marmo che la decorano, dividendo la galleria in sezioni tematiche. Istituita alla fine del XVIII secolo, la galleria fonde l'arte antica con straordinari dettagli architettonici, offrendo ai visitatori un viaggio attraverso la storia e la bellezza.
La Cappella Sistina prende il nome da Papa Sisto IV della Rovere (pontefice dal 1471 al 1484) che fece restaurare l'antica Cappella Magna tra il 1477 e il 1480. È conosciuta in tutto il mondo sia per essere il luogo in cui il conclave e le altre cerimonie ufficiali di il Papa è tenuto (in passato anche alcune incoronazioni papali), e per essere decorato con una delle più famose e celebri opere d'arte della civiltà artistica gli affreschi di Michelangelo.
Goditi la splendida basilica di San Pietro, il santuario del cristianesimo e dell'arte. Ammirerai la Pietà di Priceless, di Michelangelo, e fermati davanti alla venerabile tomba di San Giovanni Paolo II e Papa Karol Wojtyla. La Pietà (1498-1499) è un'opera di scultura rinascimentale di Michelangelo Buonarroti, conservata nella Basilica di San Pietro, Città del Vaticano.
La Necropoli Vaticana, sotto la Basilica di San Pietro, è un antico cimitero del I secolo d.C., che si ritiene ospiti la tomba di San Pietro. Si tratta di un importante sito archeologico, accessibile solo tramite visita guidata.
Questo monumentale spazio ellittico, racchiuso da 284 colonne doriche a quattro file di profondità (196 m di larghezza e 148 m di lunghezza), è il capolavoro di Gian Lorenzo Bernini, che lo espose durante i pontificati di Alessandro VII e di Clemente IX.

Pamela was amazing. Her art history is expertise added valuable insights to the Vatican tour. She clearly loves Italian history and art and her enthusiasm is infectious. Highly recommend asking for her!
Pamela will be very proud to read this. Thank you for choosing CityEyes and for recommending her so warmly; knowing her enthusiasm made the Vatican tour even more meaningful is a real compliment. Grazie! Pamela, and the CityEyes Team
Marco was amazing! His knowledge and attention to detail had us engaged the entire time. He knew how to avoid some of the crowds and took us to places that a lot of people don’t realize are even there. He also had great food recommendations and gave us ideas on further areas to explore off the beaten path.
Marco will be very happy to read this. Thank you for choosing CityEyes and for sharing such generous words about him. Grazie! Marco, and the CityEyes Team
Expensive but worth it. Gio was great, we learned so much and would not have understood most of the experience without her. Please be respectful of the location and traditions. It is one of the most incredible places on Earth. The art is unfathomable, and the history like nothing you have ever heard. Wear lightweight coverings, it’s very hot. The experience will take your breath away.
Thank you for such a thoughtful review. It means a lot to know the experience left such a lasting impression, and we'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Gio. Grazie! Gio, and the CityEyes Team
Vatican tour was so good and Katie was the absolute best. Please do yourself a favor and book with Katie. So easy to understand and relate to and passionate about telling the stories of the vatican
Amazing tour and tour guide. My tour guide was so patient with my slow walking and so very helpful. She took time to thoroughly explain what we were seeing. There is so much to see it is a bit overwhelming, but she did a great job and focusing on the key things and explain explaining the history and beauty of it all. Her thoroughness helped with the enjoyment of this tour. She was very considerate asking if I needed to rest or use the facilities several times throughout the tour.If you happen to get Ellie for a tour guide, you are in for a real treat.
Wonderful, Guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and we learned alot. Worth every penny. Highly recommend!
Thank you for your kind words! We’re delighted to hear that your guide’s knowledge and friendliness made the tour so rewarding, and that you found it well worth the value. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again soon! Kind regards, The Eyes of Rome Team
The sites are spectacular. My guide Elisse was wonderful. Your customers might want to know that they will be on their feet for almost all the tour.
The Scavi and Vatican tours were absolutely the highlight of our trip to Italy. Our guides, Elisa for the Vatican museums, St. Peter's and the Sistine chapel and Kiran for the Scavi tour, were absolutely excellent. Elisa managed to get us through construction and changing entrance procedures smoothly on a very busy day there, even organizing an impromptu backdoor pickup with our driver when the lay of the land changed. She obviously has good relationships with the Vatican staff which is so helpful and her friendly, warm demeanor was a pleasure for us. She gave us clear instructions and just the right amount of time at each of our stops. The order of sites and timing had to change a bit due to Vatican changes and actually turned out so much better than what we originally planned. Elisa was easy to understand, knowledgeable and so very helpful. We never would have gotten so much out of the visit without her. The Scavi tour with Kiran was an absolutely beautiful experience. She struck a perfect balance between the fascinating archeology and history and the profound religious meaning of the site. Our whole group with varying backgrounds and interests was overcome by the blessing that this experience was. What a gift to employ Kiran in this capacity. We are so very grateful for her knowledge and presentation skills and her ability to convey the full meaning of this once-in-a-lifetime visit. I can't recommend her or the tour more highly!
Ciao Sally, Thank you for your incredible review! We’re thrilled to hear that both Elisa and Kiran made your Scavi and Vatican tours the highlight of your trip. Elisa’s smooth handling of the day’s changes and Kiran’s perfect balance of archaeology, history, and religious significance truly made a difference. We’re grateful for your kind words and high recommendation. We hope to have the pleasure of guiding you again in the future! Arrivederci! Francesca Eyes of Rome Team
I want to start the review with a thanks to Maria, our tour. She was extremely engaging and friendly throughout the tour. She ensured everything went well and we had a good time. She met us at the hotel (pick up was included) and then proceeded to give us a tour as we drove to the Vatican. She was well organized and knew most everyone - making it very quick and easy to get through the various check points/lines with ease. Since this was a very early start (7:20a) we seemingly had a private tour for most of the morning. Many rooms were empty except for us. She explained the history and could answer all of our questions. The Vatican itself was incredible and overall we had an excellent time. We included the Scavi tour as well - which was the one area that while I’m glad I went, I probably wouldn’t do again. This was not an issue with Maria (another guide takes over inside the Necropolis) and it was both long and rather hot/humid underground. If you are claustrophobic, I would be hesitant to recommend this portion of the tour. Still, that part was an incredible piece of history and I’m glad I did it. Back outside, Maria took over and quickly guided us to the Sistine Chapel. We were fortunate on two accounts: the weather was spectacular and the pope was having an audience that day so many special arrangements were happening and the place was buzzing with extra energy. Maria ensured we got to everything we needed to and then assisted us with transportation after we were done (also included). Instead of going back to the hotel, she recommended a few areas and even a lunch place once we decided where to go. Lunch was excellent and we were able to walk around the Piazza Navona area for hours. Highly recommended! Maria is one of the best guides we ever had and made it a great experience. I would also note to have a good breakfast and bring water/water bottle for the tour. You cannot bring much else (cameras/phones/small bags OK) so plan accordingly.
We wer very fortunate to have the services of Barbara De Rosa on our private tour. She was very knowledgeable and explained the various sites in detail. Her English was perfect so we could understand what she was explaining and her sense of humor kept us laughing and interested in what she was saying. We couldn't have asked for a better tour guide.
Grazie for such a positive review, it was great to spend time together! The itinerary at the Vatican Museums is a truly extensive one, as in order to access the Sistine Chapel you have to walk through the Museums Galleries and there is so much to take in! Then the tour continues in Saint Peter's Basilica which is the core of catholic Rome and therefore it hosts artpieces, relics and findings full of layered meanings. Making the tour fun other than just educational is the best way to fully enjoy your time! All is great in good company! Barbara
