About the Event
This Easter, and to inaugurate our virtual walks project, we are offering FREE virtual tours of the Vatican. Usually,the week afrer Easter is the most popular time to visit the Vatican, and to get a true sense of what it's all about. Now, you can make that journey from the comfort of your home, without the crowds ! You can do a sort of online spring break, with a decade's worth of insights I have gleaned from leading pilgrims and patrons through the beauitful & compelling drama of sacred beauty.
Due to high demand, we have extended the short free visits for an additional week !
The theme of this virtual visit will focus on a brief introduction to tthe basic elements of the Sistine Chapel, and the ideas & reasons behind the building of this famous chapel & the commissioning of its famous art.
All the virtual walks will take place online, of course. To participate you will need a computer with a good (fast) internet connection, and a phone or an iPad with WhatsApp installed and working.
Once you register, all the log-in details will be sent to you via email one hour prior to the virtual visit.
As a courtesy, if you plan to no longer participate in the virtual tour, we ask you to please provide us with a cancellation notice at least 2 hours before the event.
