I read on a post that there are less crowded ways to see the Vatican (and the museums?) What is the company or how do you see the Vatican this way?
Thanks

The Vatican Museums themselves offer tours before the regular public opening hours. There are several private companies also doing so, one of them being Walks of Italy. The Vatican's tours are less expensive.
Vatican Museum tours and tickets
The Vatican Museums are planning changes in their ticketing procedures in early January. I expect that's why there's nothing related to the Museums for sale after December 31. By checking offerings in late December you can see at least some of the options offered in the past.
One or more private companies may still be offering tours the begin early in the Vatican Museums and then go to St. Peters. At least some of the time, those tours are able to use a connecting door from the Sistine Chapel, allowing tour members to avoid the long outdoor walk to the basilica and a very, very long wait in the St. Peters security line.
