“Great tour. Hard to imagine navigating the sheer size of the Vatican without a guide. Loved our tour guide Vera. She was interesting, knowledgeable, and very experienced with many years as a guide. I did see some other similar tours that were less costly for what looked to be the same itinerary. This one seemed to be a little pricier, which is why o allocated 4 stars and not 5. It was the most expensive tour we did while in Italy. Of course, it was the most important to us as well. Highly recommend!”

“Our tour was on August 18, 2023. Our tour guide was very kind and meeting g point was easy to find. Skip the line tickets were very beneficial & allowed our tour guides to get us right in, where others were sitting outside in long lines. She was very knowledgeable, shared a lot of history in each room that we enter on all the amazing paintings that Pope Julius commissioned & painted by the incredible Michelangelo (who was beyond his time). We were able to enter rooms others weren’t which made the experience great. The Sistine Chapel is beautiful & it was nice to be able to just take in…”

“The van picked us up at the hotel on time. We had a disabled person with us. The van driver was helpful and kind. The area around the vatican entrance was very crowded. It was great the driver took us to meet our tour guide and introduced us to her. I Can’t say enough about our tour guide, Elena. She is a teacher of Art and History. I can’t imagine anyone who could give us a better experience. She gave us so much information about the Vatican and St Peter’s Basilica. Her knowledge was amazing. She invited us to ask questions and was very engaging. We actually had conversations throughout…”
