Vatican City Map

This is the Vatican. It is an entire walled complex measuring about 0.5 km² or 0.2 square miles.

A lot of people assume the Vatican is just St. Peter’s Basilica, which is only the most famous part of it.

In the desktop or computer version of my site you can hover your mouse over the areas of the map that have a circular box on them to see that part of the Vatican.

You can click on that box to see a photo of the building. This map was made by Amadeo Gigli. I identified the areas and coded the additions.

Vatican Tour Easy to Follow
Dara did a great job and was very informative regarding the amount of art and sculpture that was covered. His explanation was in story form and he connected what was happening during that time in a very easy to follow description.

Vatican Tour Incredibly Impressed
I was incredibly impressed with Dara’s knowledge and the tour given. I have even purchased a book about the art of the Sistine Chapel in order to develop my knowledge!! Very impressed and would highly recommend.

Vatican Tour Excellent!
This Irish tour guide was excellent. Very knowledgeable and delivered information in a thorough manner with a clear voice. By far the best guide I had on the trip.

General Tour Very Funny
Dara made the whole foot pounding experience very interesting with a touch of humour thrown in for good measure. Without him pointing out things on the way we would have missed a lot. My teenage daughter was not looking forward to the tour, but afterwards she commented on how much she got out of it and found it very funny.

Vatican Tour Dara was an Excellent Guide
Dara was an excellent guide. His tour was very informative without being too ‘heavy’ and included just the right amount of humour. I’m sure we learnt a great deal more from Dara than if we simply read the guide books. The whole tour experience was incredible and helped to make our brief holiday to Rome a great success. Well Done!!
