About

On this kid-friendly tour of Vatican you will visit inside the museums and see Michelangelo’s famous Sistine Chapel. Some of the art highlights of this tour for kids will include paintings and sculptures from the time of the Ancient Greeks and Romans through the Renaissance masters such as Michelangelo, Leonardo, Raphael, and Caravaggio.

You will experience relief knowing you aren’t one of the members of the larger tour groups you will pass where children are often bored and uninterested. Instead, your children will be engaged and encouraged to ask questions to participate in this tour organized with them in mind. Our friendly guides have a variety of methods they use to create interest and activity between each of the members in your family.

Share a cultural experience with your kids while in Italy! Every year the Vatican is visited by millions of tourists who want to see the masterpieces and monuments with their own eyes: the St. Peter’s Square with the Basilica of the same name, the papal palace, and the Sistine Chapel, Raphael’s Room, the Vatican Library.
