Our tour guide was excellent and focused on the things inside the Vatican that were the most important to those in the group. He was very personable with his explanations and descriptions without overwhelming you with too many facts.

Small group was wonderful giving a chance for anyone to ask a question.
Tour was organised. I liked sending me one day ahead the meeting point for the group

This was a jaw dropping tour. The Sistine chapel visit alone or well worth the price. The St. Peter’s basilica was the cherry on top. Just incredible stuff. We had a great time.

We had a very capable and knowledgeable guide. He knew just about everything thee is to know about the Vatican Museum. He maneuvered through difficult passages, prepared us well for the Sistine Chapel (talking is not is not permitted) and gave us good overview of the Basilica.

Mohammed was a great tour guide. Very personable. The tour was very well organised. I had never been to the Vatican Museum and that was my personal highlight. So many beautiful pieces of art and interesting history to go with it.

Horrible tour, would not recommend. First of all, we were picked up from our hotel by a black minivan and taken to a restaurant underground. We actually joked that we had been abducted, because that’s what it felt like. No communication, felt very shady. The tour started, there was no skip the line at all, we just joined in with the rest of the tour groups (line was at least 150m long). We lined up for ages, then once we got to the entrance our guide didn’t have the right number of tickets for the group!! The group had 12 people, but he only had 11 tickets (this is of course, after saying it’s a group with a max of 10 people). We had to wait in the sun for a good hour, while our guide tried to buy tickets from other tour operators. He then asked if there were two people who would be happy to not do the tour, and do a later one because of the mess. This however would mean that you wouldn’t be able to do the full tour. We only ended up getting in because a family of the group snuck through and purchased their own ticket, so we had the right amount of tickets. Otherwise we would still be waiting in the hot Sun outside the Vatican. Not the guides fault, but we were rushed through due to the delay - but this tour operator would be my last recommendation!

Marisa was exceptional- so passionate about the art and she really tried to engage our teenage sons’ interest! Such a special experience. It was hot and stuffy inside at times but she moved us through efficiently.

I feel bad but this was not a great experience I would not recommend it. The quality of the headphones were poor and I had a hard time understanding our guide. I feel like I would’ve been better off just walking around on my own
