Bad customer service

I called to find out about the tickets and answered by mistake that there were no tickets that the visit had been cancelled. Naturally we bought other tickets, called 20m later to say that after all there were tickets and that they cheated. They didn't want the money back. Bad customer service

Operator response

Obrigado pelo seu feedback. Lamentamos sinceramente a confusão causada pela informação incorreta durante a chamada — isso não corresponde ao padrão de serviço que pretendemos oferecer. No entanto, como os bilhetes continuavam válidos e o serviço estava confirmado, a política de cancelamento não permite reembolso neste caso. Ainda assim, levamos a sua observação muito a sério e iremos reforçar os nossos procedimentos internos para evitar situações semelhantes no futuro.

Exceptional, Personalized Vatican Experience. Ask for Jude

I had an extraordinary experience visiting St. Peter’s Basilica, and it was entirely thanks to Jude. From the very beginning, Jude went far beyond what I expected from a guide. He personally contacted me, met me on arrival, and seamlessly navigated us through the entrance and lines with remarkable efficiency. What could have been a long, crowded process became smooth and stress-free. What truly sets Jude apart is his depth of knowledge and the way he delivers it. His explanations were clear, engaging, and rich in historical context. He brought the Basilica to life, not just as a landmark, but as a living piece of history. Jude is not just a guide, he’s someone who genuinely cares about delivering an exceptional experience. If you’re visiting the Vatican, I cannot recommend him highly enough. This was, without question, one of the highlights of my time in Rome.
