Why choose this Vatican City tour ?
One of the holiest places in Christianity, Vatican City is a tribute to a spiritual endeavor and a history spanning more than two millennia. As the resting place of the Apostle Saint Peter, the first in a continuous line of Roman Pontiffs, and a significant pilgrimage center, the Vatican is intrinsically related to the history of Christianity.
In addition, it is a perfect piece of art and a shining example of Baroque and Renaissance art. In the sixteenth century, it started to have a significant influence on the development of the arts.
The state was granted territorial authority over 44 hectares in the center of Rome by the Lateran Treaty, which was signed on February 11, 1929, and founded the independent state.

What makes Fast Track Tickets to Vatican Museum and Sistine Chapel a unique experience ?
Among the many remarkable Vatican Museums is the Museum of Vatican History. When the Historical Museum was first established in 1973 by Pope Paul, its collection was housed beneath a square garden. It wasn’t until 1987 that it was relocated to the Lateran Apostolic Palace’s main floor, and in March 1991 it was once more made public.
Julius, the pope at the time, opened the Vatican City Museums in 1503. The collection of artworks at the museum expanded from wealthy families’ private to public holdings, including those of the future pope and other popes. The Vatican Museum of History was created as a result of the Vatican Museums expanding due to the large diversity of collections requiring more structures to store the artwork.
When guests visit the Sistine Chapel, their eyes are drawn to the murals that span the entire ceiling and walls, rather than the building’s design.
The pope’s personal chapel, the Sistine Chapel, serves as the venue for the pope’s most significant rituals and is utilised by the Holy College of Cardinals to choose a new pope when a position opens up. For practical reasons, however, the chapel is closed when it is not in use, and visitors from all over the world swarm there in anticipation of seeing the amazing artworks concealed within.
