Vatican City, the smallest country in the world, spans just 0.44 square kilometers and is home to around 800 residents; however, unlike most nations, citizenship is not based on birth but is instead granted to individuals appointed to serve the Holy See. This tiny independent state is a fascinating mix of history, culture, and spirituality, where you can admire the masterpieces of Michelangelo and Raphael, as well as thousands of years old art pieces seasoned with intriguing stories. On this tour, we guide you through the incredible collection of the Vatican Museums, highlighting the must-see art pieces.
