Tonight, we’ll meet our tour leader for a brief orientation and welcome drink, followed by dinner in our hotel. DAY 3 ROME » VATICAN MUSEUM » SISTINE CHAPEL » ST. PETER’S BASILICA SATURDAY: This morning, we travel ten-minutes to another country—Vatican City. With our expert local guide we’ll tour the Vatican Museums, a massive collection of ancient Greek sculptures, medieval tapestries and Renaissance paintings. Our visit culminates in the Sistine Chapel, renowned for its Renaissance art, especially the ceiling which was painted by Michelangelo between 1508 and 1512. Next, we visit St. Peter’s Basilica, by far the largest church in the world. We’ll see Michelangelo’s Pietà, sculpted when he was just 24, as well as Bernini’s seven-story bronze canopy located above the main altar. Tonight, we thought you’d enjoy a dinner on your own. Ask your guide for a recommendation or venture out and explore. Be sure to try Spaghetti alla Carbonara made with eggs, guanciale (bacon from pig’s cheek), black pepper and pecorino cheese. (Please note that the visit of St. Peter’s Basilica is subject to availability based on any events planned by the Pope.)
