Discover Florence
Florence - Firenze - is many things; the heart of Tuscany, a Renaissance jewel, a true city of art. It's home to the Uffizi, one of the oldest museums in the world, and the Accademia, home to one of the most famous statues in the world - David. The incredible Cathedral - Duomo dominates the skyline, with Brunelleschi's fabulous dome - cupola, and Giotto's mighty clock-tower - campanile.

These are private tours - the group will comprise your party and your party only, offering you a privileged and dedicated tour.
Back to Vatican private tours
Overview
These are exclusive tours, and the price reflects this. However, there is one enormous advantage - peace of mind. Most Vatican tours are put together at the last minute, and may well see timings changed, or not happen at all. You'll book your spot, perhaps months in advance, but you may well not receive confirmation until the day before your tour is due to start. This is not scare mongering, it's just the way that collective tours of the Vatican work. With tickitaly.com you'll set off for your trip to Italy knowing that all arrangements have been finalised well in advance.
Both tours last three hours and both tours include visits to the Sistine Chapel and the Vatican Museums. The difference between the two is simple - the first tour, this one, also takes in St Peters - the second does not, and includes a longer and more thorough visit to the Vatican Museums (click here for this second tour).
Both tours are available in English, Italian, French, German, Spanish, Polish, Russian, Portugese and Swedish.
For groups of more than six people the Vatican insist on the use of the 'Whisper' audio system in the Basilica. Your guide will be talking into a small microphone and you'll each be listening on special earpieces. There will be a small charge (currently €1.50 per person) that needs to be paid in cash on the day. For more information on the parts of the Vatican you'll be able to see on the two tours, click here.
Important: please note that access to St Peters or parts of the Vatican may be restricted with little or notice, in which case the tour will have to exclude those parts. Unfortunately we cannot offer refunds in the event that there are unforeseen closures.

6th Feb 2023Mr. Alfredo was a fantastic host and guide. My family learned a great deal, which made the impact of visiting Vatican City even more meaningful. He was wonderful at assessing what my children were interesting in and had the energy for and created a tour that fit us perfectly. Thank you!5 starsRS, Canada
17th Jan 2023The 3 hr Vatican tour was perfect. Alfreddo was the perfect guide. He was very knowledgeable and dealt with such a huge tour in a great manner. 3hrs is a good length, any longer and it’s just tiring. I’m going to tell my friends coming to Rome to book the private tour with TickItaly and ask for Mr Alfreddo as their guide.5 starsES, United Kingdom (Great Britain)
22nd Sep 2020We absolutely loved it! We were so glad that we decided to spend money on having a private tour as it really made the whole experience so much more special. Deborah, our guide, was lovely and very knowledgeable. She was happy to ask all of our questions and explained everything in fantastic detail - really bringing everything to life and letting us take as long as we needed to look at anything in more detail, especially the Sistine Chapel! We were very 'lucky' because of Covid that the museum at St Peter's were virtually empty, it felt very luxurious to be able to wander around without being in a huge crowd. I would definitely book this again - I wish we could have spent all day there!!5 starsDO, United States
16th Aug 2019Our experience with Ticketitaly was great. We skipped the extremely ridiculous long line to get in!! Our Guide Deborah was simply a beautiful woman with so much knowledge of the Vatican and St Peter’s Basilica as well as Rome itself! We truly enjoyed our visit.5 starsAN, United States
