    Vatican Museums

    One of the most popular art museums in the world is the Vatican Museums. A vast collection of Renaissance masterpieces and other intriguing collections may be found in this enormous complex of 24 galleries, or chambers. Because there is so much to see, it is easy to become overwhelmed, therefore preparation is key. You can avoid the long lineups at the entrance and enter the museums without having to wait if you buy a skip the line ticket to the Vatican Museum in advance. The long lines that are typical at the museum during busy times will be avoided, but you will still need to go through security checks and present your printed or digital voucher (together with a valid photo ID) at the door.
