Your Vatican Tour for Kids is designed to make the most efficient use of your time right from the start, so the little ones never have a chance to get bored. That is why you begin with Skip-The-Line access, and get your adventure going without having to wait in long lines. Your guide will start with getting to know the kids and finding out what they are curious and interested in. Activity books will be handed out and the games begin!
You will not only visit the highlights, but your guide will also tailor the tour to include rooms and collections that are the most fun for kids. This will give your children time and space to be curious and ask questions, so they can take it all in. Did you know that there is a mummy in the Vatican City? Learn about Egyptian history and how the ancient Egyptians communicated, it’s quite similar to today’s emojis! We’ll continue through the museums visiting the Laocoon Priest of Troy, the Gallery of Maps (a kids’ favorite!), and make your way to Michelangelo’s incredible Sistine Chapel.
Lots of tales exist about how this Chapel came to be, stories that have been passed down for centuries. LivTours is committed to continuing this tradition, passing these stories down to your kids, the next generation of art lovers.
As you exit the Sistine Chapel, your guide will walk you through a direct entryway into the world’s largest church: St. Peter’s Basilica (please note that there might be a security line). See Bernini’s Baldacchino, an altar made entirely of bronze; the Pietà, another Michelangelo masterpiece; the Holy door, which absolves sins when walked through during a Jubilee year, and more.
As your tour ends, your guide will check to see that all the booklet activities have been completed and award prizes to the kids.
