During the tour, you visit several galleries, including the Pinecone Courtyard, the Gallery of the Maps, the Gallery of the Tapestries, and the Gallery of Candelabra, as well as the private apartments of Julius II. The next stop is the Sistine Chapel, where you can take your time admiring Michelangelo's breathtaking frescoes and learning about the unique relationship between Pope Julius II and the artist.

After a break for coffee, you continue your tour in St. Peter's Basilica, where you can see the world-famous Renaissance sculpture "Pieta" by Michelangelo, as well as the impressive Papal Canopy by Bernini, which was donated to the basilica by the Barberini family. The tour ends in St. Peter's Square, where you can admire Michelangelo's Dome and the beautiful colonnades designed by Bernini.

After the Vatican tour, you take a relaxing walk back to your hotel with your guide, stopping for a photo opportunity at Castel Sant'Angelo, a legendary building that was originally constructed as a mausoleum, but later used as a fortress, refuge, and prison by the popes. Once you return to the hotel, you have the rest of the day at your leisure to enjoy the beauty of Rome on your own. Please note that as the Vatican is a sacred religious site, a dress code is enforced - no shorts or uncovered knees and shoulders, and no backpacks. Additionally, entrance to St. Peter's Basilica may not be guaranteed due to religious services.
