Visit the Sistine Chapel to admire Michelangelo’s ceiling fresco, painted over four years. Then cross the Tiber River into ancient Rome to explore its iconic landmarks. See the Colosseum, the largest amphitheatre of the Roman Empire, and imagine the roar of the crowd at the nearby Circus Maximus, once used for chariot races. This evening, celebrate your journey through Europe with a dinner including wine at a lively Roman restaurant. On some departures, access to St. Peter’s Basilica and the Vatican Museums may be restricted. You'll still enjoy the atmosphere of St. Peter's Square during your visit to the Vatican City, and if tickets are unavailable to the Vatican Museums, you'll instead explore the Capitoline Museums, home to iconic Roman art and archaeology.
