Escape the Crowds in Rome with Rome Cavalieri Private Tours
By booking through Rome Cavalieri concierge, guests are able to book a private guided tour of the Vatican Gardens and Museums. Reserved to restricted number of visitors per day, the gardens are a truly peaceful oasis designed in Italian, French and English styles and are where the Pope takes a stroll in the early morning.

The visit continues with a few sections of the vast Vatican Museums: the Candelabra Gallery (displaying statues and art objects of the Imperial era), then the Galleries of Tapestries and Geographical Maps and, finally, the Sistine Chapel where the history of art and the Church come together, most known for its frescoes by Michelango. The Sistine is still the Chapel where Popes are elected and is used as their private chapel.

Through Rome Cavalieri's art historian Alexandra Massini, Rome Cavalieri is also able to offer guests a private tour of two of the most exclusive palaces in the city, both still inhabited by members of the Pallavicini and Colonna families. Massini also offers a full-day excursion through her carefully curated “Great Beauty Tour” guests to explore the magnificent, undiscovered locations throughout the Eternal City featured in the film by the same name.
