Once at the meeting point, meet your guide who will lead you inside the Vatican Museums. Skip the line to the museum with priority access. Stroll through the main galleries and see the highlights of the Vatican. Travel straight to the Sistine Chapel and exit to St. Peter’s Basilica where you can spend free time at your own leisure.
Discover the treasures inside the Chapel which is one of the highest expressions of world art. Every year millions of visitors come to Rome to admire the frescoes of the great painters, especially Michelangelo’s Last Judgment.
Your guide will tell you all the secret stories behind the artistic creation and commission. For example, an important aspect that perhaps not everybody knows, is that before the representation of Michelangelo, God did not have a human face, but was represented only as a hand that from the sky pointed the finger down.
With these frescoes, the Sistine Chapel affirms itself as the highest expression of the Italian Renaissance and therefore worldwide. On the Chapel’s ceiling, Michelangelo painted the series of frescoes concerning the Stories of Genesis. Among these, the most famous is certainly the Creation of Adam.
After your tour feel free to spend more time inside the Basilica at your own leisure, without a guide.
