This ticket is ideal for independent travellers who want to explore the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel without a tour guide, yet still wish to bypass the long lines that often form at this iconic site. Upon arrival, you’ll be escorted through a special no-wait Vatican Partner entrance. Your dedicated coordinator will provide a brief introduction and a map of the museums before you set off on your self-guided adventure. You’ll also have access to a multilingual Audio Guide on your mobile device, offering rich insights into the art and history around you.

With your full-day ticket, map, and audio guide, you can curate your own experience and explore the highlights of the Museums’ renowned collections at your own pace. Visit areas often missed by group tours, such as the Pinacoteca gallery and the Etruscan Museum, or take your time to admire the beauty of iconic spots like the Pinecone Courtyard and Gallery of Maps.

No visit to the Vatican is complete without witnessing its crown jewel: the Sistine Chapel. Your ticket includes entry to the chapel, and your coordinator will share essential information on what to look out for as you marvel at this extraordinary masterpiece.
