      Tauck Exclusive – After hours at the Vatican Museums with your family

      Day 2

      Exploring the Vatican Museums with your family – and no crowds

      Founded by Pope Julius II in the early 1500s, the Vatican Museums display classical and religious works of art collected by the popes throughout the centuries. Combined with the Sistine Chapel, they’re visited by around six million people a year, ranking among the most-visited art museums in the world. On your Tauck Bridges Exclusive, after-hours, guided visit, you and your family can explore the Candelabra Gallery, the Map Gallery, the Tapestries, and the Sistine Chapel… all without the usual crowds. So you’ll be able to take your time to contemplate the inspirational treasures before you – including the spectacular biblical frescoes on the ceiling, which took Michelangelo four years to paint, standing on a scaffold... and changed the course of western art.

      Ancient Pompeii... frozen in time

      Day 4

      Back to 1st-century Pompeii

      Pompeii was a prosperous Roman city with a population of approximately 27,000 souls until August 24, 79 AD – the fateful date when Mount Vesuvius erupted and completely buried it and its inhabitants under a blanket of volcanic ash. And there it sat until its discovery by an architect more than 1,500 years later. It would be another 150 years before some of the world’s earliest archaeologists began excavating the site in the 1740s, slowly revealing a city frozen in time. Today, as you walk with a local guide among the remains of Pompeii's buildings and streets – still an active archaeological site – you’ll get a firsthand glimpse of what life might have been like in the Roman Empire during the 1st century AD.

      Parco dei Principi Grand Hotel & Spa

      Days 1, 2 and 3

      An urban resort in Rome's heart

      At Parco dei Principi Grand Hotel & Spa, you and your family will be enveloped in elegance and inspired by beauty throughout your stay. Set in the heart of Rome just a short walk from Via Veneto, this luxurious grand hotel is surrounded by botanical gardens with a gorgeous view overlooking Villa Borghese park. Over the years, it has hosted the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, actors like Woody Allen and Anthony Hopkins, and many other celebrities, sports legends and world leaders. But its commitment is to treat each and every guest – including you and your family – like a star, a king, or a queen. The Eternal City offers incredible experiences that are even more delightful when shared with loved ones. And there is no more ideal place from which to enjoy Rome's unforgettable moments with those you love the most than Parco dei Principi Grand Hotel & Spa.

      I think it was a special family vacation because they had a lot of activities for us to do together!
