From the guide

The Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel are certainly among the top attractions in Rome. Must see places. To make sightseeing an unforgettable (beautiful) moment, we recommend a guided tour. It has been calculated that if you spent just a minute in front of each work of art, it would take you 14 years to see the Vatican Museums collection... We want to show you the best of these treasures in our three hours. Your German Roman city guide will tell you extraordinary stories about the unique architecture and the mysterious politics of the Vatican. Admire incredible works of art and the largest fresco in world history and understand the connections between art, culture and history in a simple and entertaining way.
