The Sistine Chapel at Night

Your private guide will use this opportunity to pick out and discuss some of the finer details in the iconic frescoes and ceiling paintings overhead. The time afforded to appreciate the subtle nuances on such a large scale masterpiece makes the evening tour worth it all by itself.
