Unhurried and very informative - We had limited available time and had booked a bit later, so we were pleased to be able to book this on New Year’s Day morning. Basilica was going to close early but we got through the Vatican Museum without feeling too rushed and “skip the line” into the Basilica with enough time to get the full, overwhelming experience.

Great way to see a lot in one day! - We were able to see all of the highlights in the Vatican in one day. Several hours in the Museums, plenty of time in the Sistene Chapel and St. Marks. Lena (our guide) was very kind, engaging, and knowledgeable. A great day for a Family of four!

Wonderful tour of the Vatican - Our guide, Julia was knowledgeable, informative and enthusiastic about the Vatican. Our tour encompassed the palace, Rafael rooms, the basilica, Sistine chapel and tombs of the popes. One of the highlights and unexpected part of the tour was seeing the vehicles driven by past and present popes. Julia ensured we had not only a thorough introduction to the history of the Vatican but a wonderful day. This tour was well worth the money we paid for it.

Disappointed - The Vatican was amazing. Our guide was 45 minutes late. We paid for 4 hours and got 3. We paid for an English speaking guide and could barely understand him. We were rushed through the museums. I won’t ever do a guided tour like that again.
