Getting into the Vatican Museums can be confusing and stressful. This ticket turns it into a hassle-free experience!
Once inside, explore this mind-blowing collection of Renaissance art and its crowning glory, the Sistine Chapel. Stare up in wonder at Michelangelo's masterpiece and keep an eye out for _The Creation of Adam_ amongst the many scenes that make up the fresco.
As you make your way through the museums, take in Raphael's School of Athens, the Hall of Tapestries, the Map Room, and so much more.
Plug into your video tour of the Mamertine Prison in the ancient basement of the church of San Pietro in Carcere. Prisoners at the Mamertine Prison, also known as the Tullianum, were once lowered into the cell through a hole in the ceiling; luckily, you get to use the stairs.
