Audio Guide Description
Experience Rome's most important museum, church, and tomb-turned-palace at your own pace with local experts in your ear. Download your audio guides ahead of time to listen offline on your iPhone or Android device, using your own headphones. With up to 8 hours of stories to explore, you are free to tailor the experience to your own interests and make the most of your time.

Whether you're an art lover, a history buff, or a curious traveler, you'll come away from your time in and around Vatican City with a broader perspective on Rome's long and complex history, and with details and anecdotes you won't read in guidebooks. Save $15 by bundling all three Vatican audio guides.

Vatican Museums tickets and Castel Sant'Angelo tickets are sold separately on the venues' official websites. 

In the Vatican Museums, art historians Cecilia Martini, Jeannette Pena, and Valentina Ansuini will guide you through the masterpieces of the Vatican museums including Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel, Raphael's School of Athens, antiquities like the Belvedere Torso and Laocöon and works by everyone from Da Vinci to Caravaggio to Matisse. If you'd like to dig deeper, join Egyptologist Giulia Pagliari and art historian Theresa Potenza to illuminate how Rome was influenced by the Ancient Egyptians and Etruscans. Together, these local experts will guide you through the museum's vast collections while focusing your attention on the pieces, people, and stories that changed history. Along the way, you'll learn about the complex relationship between art, politics, and power throughout the long history of the Catholic Church.

At St. Peter's Basilica, Valentina Ansuini will lead you through the world's largest and most important Catholic Church, pointing out the groundbreaking architecture, holy shrines, and unique art inside. If you're ambitious enough to climb the dome, professor Frank Dabell will open your eyes to the structure as you climb and the panoramic view when you reach the top.

At Castel Sant'Angelo, archaeologist Philip Ditchfield will unlock the 2,000-year-old castle’s history, from safe rooms to centuries-old art, and trace its development from Emperor Hadrian's Tomb to a medieval stronghold to a palace and refuge for Popes through the centuries.
