Our tips for Sistine Chapel
- Fashionably late. The Sistine Chapel draws quite a crowd. Try visiting during the mid to late afternoon to avoid feeling like herded cattle. Another option is booking the first tour of the morning when the chapel is likely to be almost empty.
- Stay just a little bit longer. Due to the crowds, it’s common to feel pressured to breeze through the Sistine Chapel. But, for most, this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to see Michelangelo’s work. So, fight the urge to flee and stick it out as long as you can.
- Paparazzi Protection. You can’t take photos inside the Sistine Chapel. So, as much as you’d like to snap a shot for posterity’s sake, please keep your camera holstered.
- Save money. Combine your Sistine Chapel tour with a Vatican Museum ticket to save extra bucks and make the most of your itinerary.
Good to know
Sistine Chapel is one of the most visited attractions inside the Vatican Museum for obvious reasons. The goal for everyone is to lay eyes on Michelangelo’s most popular masterpiece, causing some to rush through an otherwise intriguing museum visit. One cannot think of the Sistine Chapel without thinking about the famous, rebellious artist, and vice versa.
It is about a two-hour walk-through history before you reach La Capella Sistina and the lifework of a Renaissance master! Contrary to popular belief, Michelangelo did not paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel while lying down. Instead, he stood on scaffolding he designed himself.
