This
entertaining and lively adventure starts in St. Peter's Piazza, going back
2000 years with a brief explanation of important structures, statues and historical
events. We reveal the colorful lives of the emperors, artists, saints, and
Popes who left their ever-lasting mark in history here.
Inside the Vatican City, we meander our way through the world's largest museum
where you will witness some of the most important works of art in the world.
You will see first hand, where Michelangelo drew his inspiration. We will
un-shroud the scandals, dispel the legends, and reveal the secrets of the
city that has inspired pilgrims, artists, historians, Emporers and architects
for over 2000 years.
At the end of this itinerary, we arrive at the Sistine Chapel to witness Michelangelo's
legendary Renaissance ceiling, considered one of man's greatest gifts to humanity.
It is our goal to make sure you leave the chapel with a brilliant understanding
the fresco's, their significance, and the lives of the other Renaissance masters
who once painted here.
A few of the many highlights we visit along the way:
St. Peter's Basilica | The Pinecone Courtyard | The Belvedere Palace | The Apollo Belvedere | The Laocoon Group | Gallery of the Candelabra | Gallery of the Tapestries | Gallery of the Maps | The Raphael Rooms | The Sistine Chapel |
