Skip The Line to the Sistine Chapel! - Skipping the line is the only way to go. Going through the museum and arriving at the Sistine Chapel takes a lot of energy. Rome is hot right now and if you start by standing in the lines you will be exhausted by the time you arrive.
The Sistine chapel is a must see for everyone who ever has the opportunity to go…make the day the best by starting right…and that is by skipping the lines! The only bummer is you cannot take pictures in the chapel like you once could.

Fabulous tour with Christina and May Tours! - We did the tour with Christina who was the absolute best. She is American and has lived in Italy for 20 years. Studied History in Rome. So knowledgeable and experienced. She has a great sense of humor and knows the Sistine chapel and the Vatican Museum like the back of her hand. Speaks perfect Italian too. She took her time to explain pretty much everything about the tour before we actually went on it inside the lower level in a quiet cool area. We felt like we got so much knowledge before we even saw anything in either spot. Kept our group together and was able to explain so many of the little quirks of the Vatican museum and Sistine chapel. The history is so amazing. We 1,000% will use Christina and Maya Tours again when we return!!!

Loved our tour!!! - Unforgettable Vatican Tour with Deny – Knowledgeable, Fun, and Fantastic with Kids
Our tour with Deny through the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter’s Basilica was absolutely unforgettable. Deny is not only an expert in art, history, and architecture—she’s also an incredibly engaging and entertaining guide who made the experience enjoyable for every member of our family.
From the very beginning, Deny captured our attention with her vibrant storytelling, infectious enthusiasm, and sharp sense of humor. She made centuries of history come alive with such clarity and wit that even our kids were completely hooked—and that’s saying something! Her ability to connect with them, keep them interested, and make learning fun was truly impressive.
Deny's explanations were detailed yet easy to follow, and she had a fantastic way of pointing out small, fascinating details we would’ve completely missed on our own. She guided us smoothly through the crowds and made sure we got the most out of every moment—from the masterpieces in the Vatican Museums, to the awe-inspiring Sistine Chapel, to the grandeur of St. Peter’s Basilica.
But what really stood out was her warmth and personality. She made us feel welcome, comfortable, and genuinely cared for throughout the tour.
If you're visiting the Vatican with your family, Deny is the guide you want. She turned what could have been an overwhelming day into a magical, meaningful, and fun-filled experience we’ll never forget.
