CAN WE BRING BACKPACKS ON TOUR?
Vatican authorities are very strict with the use of backpacks. Sometimes some distracted visitors hit the artworks with them. Thus, they require you to check them in at the entrance locker rooms of the museums. This is not convenient because you have to walk all the way back after the tour ends to collect them. We suggest not to bring them. Bring a small purse or simple bag. Also do not carry umbrellas on tour.

Walker H. from USA with our tour Guide Franca
"Wonderful tour with a wonderful guide. My sister gifted me this tour of the Accademia Gallery as I'm a lover of Renaissance art, and it was great! The guide really understands her audience, she's very thorough and funny. I got to learn a lot of details about some of my favorite pieces. A really lovely day!", Walker H.
