Exclusive Access to the Vatican Museums

After being closed for nearly 3 months due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Vatican Museums finally reopened June 3, 2020, and Darius was 1 of just 10 people invited by the Musei Vaticani to explore on May 30 and share the experience of the new itinerary. It is an extraordinary moment to explore the museums with few visitors. Join Darius for a look at some of the most famous spots like the Raphael rooms, Gallery of Tapestries, Hall of Maps, Sistine Chapel (yes, he was given permission to film inside!) and the Laocoon statue. His visit also includes "new" gems normally closed to the public, like Bramante's early 16C staircase and the apse terrace about the "Nicchione" overlooking the Belvedere courtyard that gives you one of the most spectacular views of Rome! Consider making the visit in the coming months!
