Sistine Chapel

Of course this wonderful Vatican tour includes access to the incredible Sistine Chapel. Although it is true there is something to be said for the early morning light in the Sistine Chapel, we believe there is even more to be said about its magical evening glow. Rome is famous for its “golden hour” which is that fleeting, enchanted moment just before dusk when the city seems to turn to Pure Gold.

    The Vatican at sunset is truly something to behold. Our guide’s passion and knowledge was second to none. He took the time to get to know us and to then highlight art and artifacts that would be of special meaning to us. We were fortunate enough to even get a quick peek into the Room of Tears during our time in the Sistine Chapel.
