02 · Morning Museums and Basilica visit

Vatican, Sistine Chapel & St. Peter's Basilica VIP Guided Tour

04 · Short private Museums visit

Express Early Morning Sistine Chapel Tour with Max 6 People

The catch: The first 30 minutes are outside for the Chapel explanation. The early start does not mean 2 full hours inside, and St Peter's is not included.

Know before you go

Vatican Museums admission

The official ticket costs €25 online, including the €5 booking fee. It covers the Sistine Chapel on your chosen date.

St Peter's free entry

Vatican Museums hours

Vatican clothing rules
