Vatican Gardens Open Bus Experience
Tour Overview
Explore one of Vatican City's best-kept secrets in comfort and style. This unique experience begins with an eco-friendly panoramic open bus tour through the Vatican Gardens - the lush green heart of the world's smallest state. Ancient trees, fountains, monuments, and hidden botanical treasures reflect centuries of papal heritage. A multilingual audio guide (7 languages) provides commentary as you ride comfortably through the gardens without disembarking. After the 45-minute garden tour, use your included skip-the-line ticket to explore the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel at your own pace. This self-guided portion allows you to linger at your favorite works and move at your own rhythm.
