Great to have a ‘skip the line’ tickets. Going through the Vatican is like following an IKEA store. Too crowded and too hot…recommend going early to avoid the queues and crowds
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re pleased that the skip-the-line ticket helped make your arrival smoother and saved you valuable time at the entrance. The Vatican Museums can become very busy and warm, particularly during peak hours. For this reason, your suggestion to visit early in the day is excellent advice for future visitors who would like a more comfortable experience. We hope the remarkable collections and the beauty of the Vatican still made your visit truly memorable! Best regards 1 City Tour Staff
Very crowded. Lots of walking through all rooms to get to Sistine Chapel. No pictures allowed in Sistine Chapel so hundreds in center of floor staring up without moving
Thank you for sharing these helpful details for future visitors. The Vatican Museums can be very busy, and the route to the Sistine Chapel involves walking through many galleries, so your advice is valuable for planning the visit. We’re glad you still appreciated the experience and had the opportunity to see the Chapel in person. We hope the beauty and atmosphere of the museums made your visit memorable! Best regards 1 City Tour Staff
Beautiful, did with a 9yr old and teens. Lots of walking and it was very warm in the rooms. Lots of walking make sure you are in good shape. You walk for 2 hours straight.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad you found the visit beautiful and suitable for your family, with plenty to discover together. The route does involve a substantial amount of time on foot, particularly in the warmer months, so your practical advice will be very helpful for future visitors planning their day. We hope the highlights of the visit made the experience worthwhile, and we would be delighted to welcome you again soon! Best regards 1 City Tour Staff
Excellent service easy access to your Guide David met us on time and was very informative and had excellent information
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re delighted to hear that the service was smooth and easy to access from the very beginning. It’s especially great to know that Davide welcomed you on time and made the experience more enjoyable with his knowledge, clear explanations, and helpful attitude. We truly appreciate your kind words and will be very happy to share them with Davide. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again on another visit! Best regards 1 City Tour Staff
The museum has an amazing collection of treasures, but wayfinding is poor and most exhibits have little signage to identify them, so it's an oooh-aaah experience with less educational value than I was hoping for. An experience with a guide might have been better.
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed the museum’s remarkable collection and found so much to admire throughout the visit. We understand that, in such a large and historic setting, clearer wayfinding and more contextual information can make a real difference. This experience is designed for guests who prefer to explore independently and at their own pace; however, a guided option can indeed be a great choice for visitors looking for deeper explanations and more structured context. We appreciate your comments and hope you still had a memorable visit. Kind regards 1 City Tour Staff
I would recommend taking the time to have a guided tour if you’d like more information about the Vatican.
Thank you for your feedback. We understand that guests looking for deeper historical explanations may prefer a guided tour. This product clearly indicates that a guided tour is not included. It is designed for visitors who prefer to explore the Vatican Museums at their own pace, with more flexibility and independence. For those who would like a guided experience, other guided tour options are available and can be selected during the booking process. This allows each guest to make an informed choice based on their own needs and travel style. Kind regards 1 City Tour Staff
Just line up and save yourself 100 dollars. All they do is walk you inside, you'll already be showing up early to find the guide anyway. Go stand in line instead.

Just bought skip the line tickets but the tour rep brought us all the way in before leaving us to tour on our own. Loved it!
Thank you for your kind review. We’re delighted to hear that you appreciated the assistance from our representative and enjoyed continuing the visit at your own pace. We hope to welcome you again soon!
Highly overprices, just buy the ticket straight from the official site, its cheaper with the same experience

Guide got us into museum, we could get audio guide or not abd fo at our own pace which we prefer. Disappointing you have to completely leave museum and walk outside the wall to get around to St Peter's and very long lines, but that is nit Victor's fault. We chose to skip and return to Basicilica early, 7am to skip heat and lines.
Thank you for your kind feedback. We’re pleased to hear that our guide assisted you smoothly with entry and that you enjoyed visiting the museum at your own pace. We also appreciate your understanding regarding the route and lines for St. Peter’s, which are outside our control and not included in our product. We hope to welcome you again soon!
