This tour is not wheelchair accessible due to the standard visitor route inside the Vatican Museums, which may include areas that are difficult to access with a wheelchair.
The itinerary may vary slightly due to Vatican crowd control, security procedures, special events, route changes or partial closures. In these cases, the guide will adapt the visit to offer the best possible experience.
We recommend wearing comfortable shoes and travelling light, as the Vatican Museums are large and the visit involves walking through busy museum areas.
Large bags, suitcases, oversized backpacks and items considered unsuitable by Vatican security are not allowed inside. We recommend bringing only small personal belongings.
