Description

Admire the masterpieces of the Vatican Museums and the incredible frescoes by Michelangelo inside a splendid Sistine Chapel, illuminated by an evocative evening light. Not only that: during the visit to the Sistine Chapel, you will hear in the background the concert of a small orchestra that will perform a repertoire of classical music live. That’s what we like to call a “color concert”.

This is a unique opportunity: visit the Vatican Museums in the evening, without the crowds that occur during the day, with all the illuminated works and a suggestive quiet and relaxed atmosphere.

This tour is an extended version of the classic tours of the Vatican. You will be given the opportunity to visit, with an in-depth explanation by the guide, the rooms of Raphael, famous for the frescoes that embellish them (above all “The School of Athens “), painted by Raphael and his students.

The last part of the tour consists of a visit to the Sistine Chapel illuminated by an evocative evening light. This type of lighting is similar to that which Michelangelo also had while painting his most famous masterpiece. Relive the same atmosphere that the Master lived at work.

(Please note: admission to the Basilica is not allowed in the evening)
