Guidekin's take

A guided Museums and Sistine Chapel tour with the School of Athens on the route, and St Peter's explained from the square rather than inside, though you can enter on your own afterwards.

Museum and chapel entry are included at €130 per person, pickup, food and a Basilica guide are not. Check the Vatican's restoration calendar, the chapel is sometimes scaffolded.

In our comparison: #86 of 138 in Vatican, Sistine Chapel & St Peter's Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
