Less than 1% of Vatican visitors ascend St. Peter's Dome, this is a remarkable statistic so for this reason we have decided to take it from the top! Meet your expert Vatican guide by St. Peter's Square. Sacred stairs (and an elevator) will carry you up to St. Peter's Terrace from where you will see all of Rome and even the Tyrrhenian Sea! Back on terra firma you will tour the entirety of St. Peter's Basilica too. Take a break before making the short walk to our Vatican meeting point for your second tour of the Vatican City and Sistine Chapel! Get fast track access to the masterpieces which make the Vatican Museums absolutely must-see when in Rome.

Our Guide Chiara was amazing! Chiara has a background in the Fine Arts, further she is local to Roma which is a plus as her passion for history of this beautiful Holy Place is delivered with the respect it deserves. Our tour took us through the Vatican, Vatican Vatacombs, the Vatican Museum and we climbed St. Peters Dome, all 551 steps to the top! One must remember what goes up, must come down so be sure to add another 551 steps! If you can recommend a guide when booking be sure to request Chiara, you wont be disappointed!

Our guide was fantastic! She was extremely knowledgeable and gave us a lot of history as we navigated thru the Vatican, dome and museum. The “skip the line” was for the dome. There is no “skipping the line” when it comes to Vatican entry so be sure to arrive at your tour time and be ready to go. The tour company does their best to get you in line as early and quickly as possible and has other tour members locating stragglers and late arrivals to join you in line.

Chiara was the best tour guide I could have ever asked for. She took the time to explain things clearly, keep the tour light hearted and fun, and made sure there was a nice coffee break. Super knowledgeable!

Book the tour to skip the line, but you must queue for the security check 1+ hour (no way to avoid that) however our guide kept us entertained and informed. The 531 steps up the Dome is relatively OK, just wear appropriate shoes. Amazing view. The guided tour by Sabrina was excellent. The skip the line to the museum was worth it. So much to see before seeing the Sistine Chapple. Don't disrespect the chapple and put your camera away. All up a great tour and worth the top end cash.
