At the indicated time, we'll meet on Viale Giulio Cesare and enter the walls of Vatican Hill to discover a real oasis. The Vatican Gardens have been the resting and meditation place of the Popes for centuries. Would you like to discover them?
You'll spend around 45 minutes on a minibus exploring this hidden paradise in the smallest state in the world. Fortifications, grottoes and idyllic fountains await!
As we drive through the Vatican Gardens, we'll discover English woodlands, Italian gardens and French flowerbeds in an impressive mix of architectural and natural styles. We'll also pass by the Casina of Pius IV, a masterpiece of Mannerist architecture and the current seat of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences. With the help of your English audio guide, you'll discover all the secrets these gardens hide!
Once we've seen the Vatican Gardens, we'll part ways and you'll be able to visit the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel on your own.
When you step inside, you'll behold the greatest collection of art in the Roman Catholic Church. You'll admire the frescoes on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, Michelangelo's masterpiece, and see where papal coronations are held.
