Vatican VIP Ultimate Early Entrance

The Ultimate Vatican VIP Early Entrance tour is the best you could have if you are looking for an exclusive experience. This unique guided tour is organized for a small group of 12 people only, this way you can interact with your expert English speaking guide as if you were on a private tour. Your group will enter the Vatican at 7:30 AM, one hour and a half before the general audience and 30 minutes before most of the other tour companies.

This special tour will allow you to enjoy the Vatican highlights with almost nobody around while most of the other tours offered in the Vatican are held with thousands of other tourists around you.
