Itinerary
The Vatican Museums, the most important museum complex in the world, are located in Rome. They exhibit works from the immense collection built by the Roman Catholic Church over the centuries.
The frescoes that we contemplate here introduce us to the world of the contents of Revelation. The truths of our faith speak to us here from all sides. From them the human genius drew his inspiration by committing himself to dress them with forms of unparalleled beauty. The Sistine Chapel owes its name to its client, Pope Sixtus IV della Rovere (1471-1484), who wanted to build a new large room on the site where the "Magna Chapel" already stood, a fortified hall from the Middle Ages, intended to house the meetings of the papal court.

Laura was great! Was quite busy but she kept us informed and engaged the whole time. Highly recommend doing the Vatican in the cooler months - today was bearable but the summer could be extremely uncomfortable.

Viator sent confirmation of tour meeting point and time but upon arrival the operator had no record of our booking. Viator provided the wrong address. Contacted the operator by telephone and was directed to a new address but upon arrival was told the tour was rescheduled to later in the day. When I contacted Viator seeking refund my request was denied. Viator indicated I was at fault and that the operator could not contact me although I provided my email and mobile to Viator. Viator screws up but blames the customer. Last time I book with them.

Booked 10:30am tour for four people. Emailed day before that time changed to 11am. Showed 10:45am and told 11:30am (unapologetically). Tour finally began around 12:15pm. Others people who had booked 8am tour were treated similarly. We missed our lunch reservations due to the multiple delays. Tour guide was disinterested and rushed through tour. My advice: skip this tour and try another or self tour; but don’t skip seeing the Vatican!

Visiting the Vatican was a must do on our travel list. This tour includes a skip the line and I highly recommend that. Walking past the hundreds of people sitting in the heat for a chance to go in was well worth every penny. I believe the tour guide is a guide chosen by the Vatican and not the tour company. He spoke very fast and had an accent that at times was hard to follow. With that we still caught on to what was being said and were truly amazed by the history all around us.

Paolo was very knowledgeable of the history and biblical references. He was a fabulous tour guide. Our only issue is that the time of the tour is not actually the real starting time of the tour. We booked a 9:30 time and it got changed to 11:30 due to being overbooked. It was stressful for us. The tour was at 11:30 but it took over an hour just to get inside the Vatican. We needed up having to leave our group and go ahead into Sistine Chapel for 4 mins and then hustle to get to cruise ship. So we spent almost $700 to spend 4 mins or less in Sistine Chapel. That was disappointing.
