Description:
Join our Early Morning Vatican Tour and treat yourself to a VIP experience. We have carefully designed this itinerary to arrive at the Sistine Chapel when it is least crowded with visitors: taking advantage of our early access to the Vatican and expedited tickets, you will be able to enjoy the unparalleled show that Michelangelo has staged for us as never before. Grasp the real secret of his talent, connecting to his art. Gaze upon the captivating gestures of the figures on the vault of the Sistine Chapel, from the Creation of Adam to the prophets, such as Jonah or Jeremiah, and find out how Michelangelo broke all the artistic rules of his age. Explore the unrivalled collection of Classical Art in the Vatican Museums, unearthed in the Renaissance, and which inspired Michelangelo and Raphael to create their masterpieces. Between the two artists, there was an incredible rivalry, and they were also working side-by-side here; whilst Raphael painstakingly painted his masterpieces in the Raphael Rooms, Michelangelo labored over the Sistine Chapel. The fascinating tale of their great rivalry is just one of the many stories that you'll hear on our early Vatican tour. From the Sistine Chapel, your guide will escort you to St. Peter's Basilica (except on Wednesdays), where you can enter on your own accord. This itinerary has been carefully tailored to arrive at the Sistine Chapel when it has the fewest visitors. Our early entry allows us to explore the major parts of the Museums when they are largely empty, and we time our arrival at the Sistine Chapel when it is at its least crowded - ensuring you the best experience possible.
