Step by Step
The Vatican opens its doors to tourists to enjoy its architecture and history at night. If you want to visit one of the most famous monuments in a different way, this tour is a must on your itinerary.
Throughout the tour, you will be accompanied by a private expert guide who will tell you about the history of the art and architecture of the city.
As well as avoiding long queues to buy tickets, the booking will also allow you to visit the gallery of maps, a space built in the 16th century where painted topographical maps are kept. You will also see the Estancias de San Rafael, four rooms with Renaissance art paintings.
Finally, you must not miss the entrance to the Sistine Chapel, one of the most important artistic and religious monuments in the world. This is where the most important representatives of the church meet to appoint a new pope. You can also see "The Creation of Adam" , one of the most important frescoes in the history of art, painted by Michelangelo between 1508 and 1512.
