Wonderful experience. Vatican has so many treasures it’s impossible to comprehend. Tour guide Rita was excellent and check-in experience so much better than the Colosseum which was a bit crazy. Saw the great halls with different art and sculptures, the Sistine Chapel and finally the St Peter’s Basillica and square. Recommended!
Yes, Rita is a good guide. Hope we will meet again.
Monica was a terrific guide. She is very knowledgeable and shared stores of each statue and the ceiling. It was a marvelous experience and helped to have her point out info about everything. I also got to go into Vatican without any lines which was amazing as lines outside were very long.
Thank you very much.
It was great . The tour guide was knowledgeable and experienced . This was our first time at these places so we needed to learn about them.
Thank you so much. It's our pleasure.
We were late due to traffic and having to get an Uber driver. We missed our tour guide but still received our tickets for entry to places for us to visit. Worked out well in the end.
We try to do our best. Finally visited the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel, it's made us satisfied. Thank you for your review.
Fabrizio was wonderful. Passionate, knowledgeable and humourous. The Sistine Chapel was worth the wait.
Thank you very much.
Guide talked softly, the Vatican tour was in the vehicle museum and a very quick undiscribed walk though another museum. Tour was only 2 hours but was supposed to be 3 hours, there was nothing concerning at Peter’s, it was there it is, your on your own. Would not use this company again.
We completed our tour as we promised. The Vatican Museums are busy always. We have to consider it. St. Peter's Basilica is not a guided tour. Only entry with our guide. Perhaps you didn't check the itinerary.
Everything was great our guide was very knowledgeable and gave us information that otherwise we would not have been able to get. The tour was amazing and again without our guide we would have missed so many.
Thank you so much.
With 25,000 visitors a day, we were prodded along. Our Italian guide spoke English, but was hard to understand. She left our group of 11 ten minutes before we were instructed as a group to gather.
Vatican Museums, one of the busiest museum in the world. Specially Friday and Saturday are more busy. On the other hand, the Vatican licensed guide knows her job very well. If she left you 10 minutes before then we are sorry for this. In future we will be more serious about time. Thank you very much for your review.
This tour did not deliver any of what they advertised , instead of skip the queue we waited an hour and half in the security line just to get in inside. Then just before the cistine chapel the guide left us and said after the chapel turn right to go into the basilica. When we got to this point security would not let us enter without a guide. We spent a crazy amount of time arguing with security. Other groups would not take us as it appeared they had to pay per person. This was a con by our guides. When we went to their office they said the basilica was free so they could not even refund a portion. This still doesn’t stop them advertising the basilica in their program. So we missed the basilica as did others in our group that we meet later. Buyers be ware this is a bad company to take a tour with if you use them you will sign up for disappointment and a scare on your holiday. Just thinking of my day in the Vatican museum now makes me angry not the holiday memories I wanted
17th August was a very particular day for the Vatican Museums. It was very very busy. We had vouchers for 10.30 but the Vatican Museums didn't take us in timely. It wasn't our mistake. It was a situation. Any thing can be happened and the Vatican has highest priority. We can't do anything here. We tried herat and souls to do our best. Because of huge crowds that day some mismanagement happened. We did apologized for that. On the other hand we didn't give any guarantee to go to the Basilica directly. Basilica is an optional part of this tour. Why you are highlighting this issue, we don't understand. Anyway, thank you very much for your review.
My family and I took this tour in the morning before having to catch a flight. The tour was about 2.5 hours long, and we were able to cover so much ground in that time! We enjoyed going through the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter’s Basilica. Being able to skip the lines really helped with getting us through all the sites so quickly. The tour guide was also very knowledgeable and friendly. I would definitely recommend this tour to someone interested in touring Vatican City and short on time.
Thank you very much. It's our pleasure to make you happy. Hope we will meet again.
