enter the Vatican museums by using an elevator and a ramp.
• After visiting the Vatican museums, the disabled visitor and one
companion will be able to take an alternate route to avoid the stairs
on the normal route leading to the Sistine Chapel.
• These two people will be able to meet back up with your guide before
using an elevator and a wheelchair lift to obtain
disabled access to the Sistine Chapel.

13. After visiting the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel, most tour
group participants take a shortcut through a staircase to reach
St. Peter’s Basilica.
• Disabled visitors who can not go down a flight of stairs will have to
take the long route back to the Vatican Museums entrance then
follow a 500 meter route outside of the Vatican city walls to reach
the accessible entrance of St. Peter’s basilica.
• You will be separated from the tour guide for about 30 minutes.
• For this reason, we recommend the private Vatican accessible tour as
the best option.

power wheelchair users, and mobility scooter users.
