*The Basilica of St. Peter may at times have events scheduled with little notice to tour operators which will prevent touring inside of the church or could effect the time of the visit to the Sistine Chapel. We will make every possible adjustment to work around this inconvenience that is out of our control. If rescheduling is not possible, then we will spend the additional time inside of the museums to make up for the time not available inside of the church.
