It’s worth noting that Raphael’s Rooms are included in this three-hour journey, but certain days may prevent us from stopping due to overcrowding, scheduling, or visitor traffic as directed by Vatican Museum staff. If viewing Raphael’s Rooms is a critical part of your experience, we recommend you schedule one of our extended group tours: the Early Vatican Tour or the VIP Vatican Tour where Raphael’s Rooms will be included.

Please inform us when you are booking if you fit into these requirements and we will remove the pricing of the entry tickets from the price of the tour.
