Tour Description
Enjoy the perfect blend of art, history, and cuisine with a visit through the Vatican and a hands-on course for cooking traditional Italian cuisine! Let us whisk you away from your arrival at Civitavecchia for an exciting family-friendly day of Italian culture and cuisine. Skip the line at the Vatican with VIP access to the museums—a treasure-trove of amazing art by the world’s most famous painters and sculptors. Witness Michelangelo’s astounding Sistine Chapel, with its incredible detail and lifelike figures in an enormous “canvas”.
Discover Saint Peter’s Basilica and stand in awe of its incredible mosaics. Monumental works of art await you, like Michelangelo’s “Pieta“, and Bernini’s “Baldachin“. Spend some time soaking in the atmosphere within the world’s most famous basilica, and ask our expert guide any questions you might have.
After touring the Vatican, satiate your hunger with a hands-on course for making authentic Italian dinner and dessert, whether its pizza or pasta and gelato or tiramisu, in our renovated 17th-century palazzo near Piazza Navona or in our new cooking school just steps from the Pantheon. Get ready to discover Rome in all of its glory. From a trip to the Vatican to an authentic Italian course on cooking, you will feel like you’ve truly discovered the heart of Italy.

The golf cart has access to many places that are inaccessible to buses or cars, and the up close view of the city was without parallel.
I would highly recommend this tour. It was a highlight of our wonderful trip to Rome. read less - 6/06/2022chicago3
