SISTINE CHAPEL TICKETS AND TOURS

Sistine Chapel Tours

How often do you look at the ceiling in your home or when you visit somewhere stately or noble like a Palace or Cathedral? You may well answer, rarely, unless you’re appreciating your own paintwork! Certain places require you to, look up. The Sistine Chapel in Vatican City is one place, don’t look up and you’ll miss out on some of the most spectacular artwork ever created. Commissioned by Sixtus IV, the Sistine Chapel is one of the Local Rome tours you must include during your stay. A Sistine Chapel tour will reveal the glory of the Vatican, you’ll see Michelangelo’s famous frescoes and other artwork from some great artists. You can skip-the-line, visit it by night or combine with other Vatican tours. With the opportunity to spot Michelangelo’s secret messages in his paintings (apparently there are some!), this is one ceiling you might spend plenty of time admiring!
