What to expect
Experience a once-in-a-lifetime journey to the heart of the Holy See with this exclusive tour that includes Pope Francis' Papal Audience and a guided visit to the Vatican Museums.
We begin at 7:15 am at Via della Conciliazione, where we will make our way to St. Peter's Square, the centerpiece of Vatican City. As we walk, your guide will share fascinating insights into the history, architecture, and stories of the popes. Arriving at St. Peter's Square before 9:00 am, you'll be in the perfect position to witness Pope Francis' traditional Wednesday Audience.
We will follow the Pope's preaching and guidance for approximately two and a half hours. After the audience, you'll have free time to explore Vatican City on your own and have a typical lunch on your own.
At 2:30 pm, you will go to the second meeting point to begin the guided tour of the Vatican Museums. During this three-hour tour, you'll discover renowned treasures such as the Laocoön sculpture, Raphael’s frescoes as the School of Athens, and Michelangelo's masterpiece, The Final Judgement, in the Sistine Chapel.
The tour concludes back at St. Peter's Square, leaving you with unforgettable memories of your Vatican experience.

Know before to go

- The Papal Audience only takes place on Wednesdays. If you'd prefer to visit the Vatican City on another day, we recommend our Guided Vatican Museums Tour
- This offer includes reserved tickets: you will access the monuments with priority access by skipping the ticket queues
- The tour lasts 10 hours:In the morning we attend the general audience of the pope (which lasts about 4 hours), afterwards, there is a free lunch break of about 3 hours, and finally in the afternoon at 2.30 p.m. there is a tour of the Vatican museums (which lasts about 3 hours)

Laura our host was very informative. She got us the best seats and the Pope came past us twice. Definitely recommend booking this as it took away the stress and chaos of getting there on your own

Amazing!!!!!
Met the guide at 7am and she was really friendly. Took us to the queue and made sure no one was getting passed as there were lots of people chancing it. We were told it would be inside as it was really hot even at that time of the morning!! Got through all the security and she took us to our seats which were really close to the front and that where we were was right next to the aisle that the pope goes up at the end. Worth every penny, amazing experience.
