Da sapere su questa attività

Incontra la tua guida a Città del Vaticano, ed entra nei Giardini Vaticani per il tuo tour a piedi. Quieto rifugio per i papi vaticani fin dal Medioevo, i Giardini Vaticani coprono una notevole area, 23 ettari, con tortuosi vialetti, grotte e fontane, nonché un bellissimo giardino all'italiana, ornato di fiori colorati.

Passeggia con la tua guida, ammirando attrazioni come la Nostra Signora della grotta di Lourdes - uno dei posti di preghiera preferiti di Papa Francesco e del suo predecessore, Papa Benedetto XVI - mentre apprendi la storia dei giardini. Risalente al XIII secolo, il sito era in origine un semplice frutteto, ma poi è stato esteso e ha raggiunto uno standard più lussuoso dalle generazioni papali successive.

Dopo aver trascorso circa 1 ora e mezza all'interno dei giardini, entra nei Musei Vaticani. Ammira la Scala di Bramante - una struttura inclinata a spirale scolpita nella roccia dall'architetto rinascimentale Donato Bramante - e poi visita le camere, come la Galleria degli Arazzi.

Ascolta racconti sugli artisti del Rinascimento preferiti del Vaticano, come Raffaello, e ammira gli incredibili arazzi fiamminghi, progettati dai suoi allievi. Entra nella Galleria delle carte geografiche, e ammira le dettagliate mappe affrescate dell'Italia del XVI secolo.

Prosegui verso la Cappella Sistina, il luogo di culto privato del papa, per vedere alcune delle opere d'arte più influenti nel mondo occidentale. I dipinti su tavole di artisti del calibro di Botticelli e Perugino sono incredibili, ma deboli in confronto alla coppia di opere di Michelangelo che attirano subito l'attenzione: la Creazione di Adamo e Il Giudizio universale.

Termina il tour con una passeggiata nella Basilica di San Pietro, la magnifica chiesa vaticana con cupola. Dopo lo stupore dinanzi a La Pietà di Michelangelo e al monumento a Papa Giovanni Paolo, saluta la tua guida ed esci in Piazza San Pietro.

The tour started about an hour late. The guide was arguing with another guide at the ticket stand for a good half hour and then she was more interested in talking to other guides than she was interested in starting the tour. To make matters worse, the guide was hard to understand as her English was not very good. Obviously, with the late start, the tour was then very rushed. Are guide also kept wanting to take breaks so she could text somebody on her phone. Meanwhile, nobody on the tour needed a break.

Erik was an outstanding tour guide! Very knowledgeable and easy to understand!!! Highly recommend him! Very difficult to find the meeting location and the blue line tours folks were not helpful in helping us locate the exact position for the meeting point. Almost missed the tour!

This tour was amazing! We enjoyed starting in the gardens, especially getting away from the crowds. Our guide was wonderful. She was very knowledgeable and tireless in getting us through the crowds. Several times, she got the guards to open up special access for us, including the Bramante staircase which leads up to a marvelous view of Rome. The crowds started to build up as we moved toward the incredibly beautiful Map Room. Way too crowded... The paths leading to the Sistine Chapel were extremely crowded. The Chapel was surreal. We were able to admire it in several spots over the course of 10 to 15 minutes. Then we went to St. Peter’s Basilica and were able to see the Pieta and other works of art. We said goodbye to our guide and walked downstairs to the tombs of some of the popes. This tour is worth 5 stars however, many of us were very disappointed by the lack of detail in the instructions for meeting the tour. If you are still reading this review, I’ll try to simplify it: 100 Viale Vaticano is the number on a coffee shop across the street from the Museo Vaticano, there are steps next door to the coffee shop. Look for a person in a pink jacket that says, I “heart” Rome. As a group, they will take you across the street and through security, get you antenna sets, and place you with your guide. It’s rather unorganized, but it works.

This was an amazing tour and I highly recommend anyone visiting the Vatican to do this. Keep in mind, it is early and 5 hours long but so worth it. Our guide was amazing. Very knowledgeable and if I wasn't so jetlagged, I would remember her name : It was nice to see things other tours did not show in the Vatican and just the gardens were amazing to see. Highly recommend!

Excellent tour - our guide was literally an expert. She knew just about everything there was to know and our minds were brimming and overflowing with the information. The gardens were beautiful and since we were the only tour doing the gardens it was a lovely two hours on our own. The next FOUR HOURS was a bit of a nightmare on the feet. No lunch breaks! Wear the most comfortable shoes youve got because there was zero time to sit down. Eat a big breakfast and take some snacks with you as there is zero time for food and very minimal toilet stops. Once in the museums you are packed in like sardines - it wasn't my favourite thing to be honest. The tour then went to the Basilica and the Sistine Chapel, which was good but by then you're exhausted!

Ok. Nothing great. The tour guide was not very patient.

If you plan to go to the Vatican, do this early morning tour. It was like we had the gardens to ourselves. Didn’t see other tours until we were done with the gardens. Just beautiful. Highly recommend.

Don't go to the Vatican if you're going to skip the gardens - cause they're arguably the best part. We booked this tour so we could see parts of the Vatican that most people don't see, and we're extremely glad we did. The gardens were beautiful and very well maintained. The tour guide was great, and did a nice job moving this along smoothly. I will say, wear comfortable walking shoes, cause the tour is LONG. By the time it ended, we were more than ready for a break. But, if you've got limited time and want to get the most from your visit to the Vatican, this is the best option - hands down.
