Be prepared for a stunning journey through the Vatican
We think that just as important as where you visit, is how you visit, and this is especially true for a place as beautiful as Vatican City. This is why we pick our tour guides personally, to make sure they are flexible and knowledgeable enough to cater to your own individual interests, passions, and even stamina. With our expertly planned Vatican tour, focus on the most important artworks at the Vatican museums alongside with many stories and anecdotes about this historic building. Either way, you can simply meet your family-friendly guide in front of the Vatican and we’ll take it from there! You will also be provided with skip-the-line tickets which will allow you to forego the hours of queuing and walk straight into the history of the Church. This is particularly helpful if you’re travelling with kids!

I could not recommend this company enough. They were fantastic & so accommodating to my requests & requirements.
We created a custom-made tour itinerary after many many emails! They never lost patience with me & managed to create an itinerary which was perfect for us. We did the Vatican Tour for first, Rome’s famous squares and fountains and the amazing Pizza masterclass. Everything was perfect! Thank you so much
I travelled with my husband & boys, ages 18 & 10. We had 3 days & I only wanted to tour for 2 of these. We ended up booking 2 half day morning tours. Francesca, a fabulous, friendly, animated & engaging guide took us on a private tour of the Vatican and of the Colosseum. Thank you so much Europe 4 Kids for enriching our time in Rome. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you & use you again!
