Of course this wonderful Vatican tour includes access to the incredible Sistine Chapel. There is something to be said for the early morning light in the Sistine Chapel, but even more to be said about its evening glow. Rome is famous for its “golden hour” which is that fleeting moment just before dusk when the city seems to turn to gold. This lighting seeps into the Sistine Chapel, through stained glass windows during those late summer sunsets, a sight not to be missed.

At the end of the tour, your guide will drop you off in St. Peter's Square, where you will be free to enjoy the warm embrace of Bernini's colonnade and take as many pictures as you wish. Take your time and explore the various corners and cobblestones Rome by night has to offer. St Peter’s Basilica at night is probably one of the most beautiful sights of the entire city.
