The meeting place pin...

The meeting place pin drop is not correct use the address provided. It is very long...and can be very crowded, bottled necked in places. Comfortable shoes is a must as it is a lot of walking, way finding is very difficult and take water, lots of water. Once you start it is very difficult to stop and find a break area. The art is amazing it's like the pyramids you have to go if you are in Rome.

Super

Attentive, precise, and friendly. A clearly defined meeting point, accompanied to the entrance, and an upgrade of the ticket to include a guided tour that was not initially included.

Getting the skip the line...

Getting the skip the line for the Vatican probably saved hours during our trip. This was during the jubilee year and they were long lines to get through security.Highly recommended to spend a few more dollars and get the skip the line pass to enjoy your trip even more.
