    Luciana was absolutely excellent with superb knowledge on all the many things we saw. We were a group of 12 and she made sure everyone was included. She ensured the visit was entertaining and memorable and was charming with it. We would highly recommend this tour and our guide.

    I have always dreamed os visiting the Vatican. The SKIP THE LINE TOUR was absolutely the smartest thing I’ve booked. I had no idea how long the line would be. We zipped right in ahead of the line. Our guide was wonderful and so knowledgable. Thank you.

    Extremely dedicated guide; Kinga….. and being educated and working as professor in art, she knew ALL there was to say…… she could have spent more than the 2 1/2 hr she was with us….. she must be the best 100%

  7. Marjeanne_F

    We had a wonderful guide! It was just incredibly busy, but I think that is the norm now. You are moving with a crowd of people around you at all times.
    Other than that, it was incredible!

    We grabbed a quick bite and rushed to the tour office for the tour that was supposed to start at 2:45 but was delayed for unknown reasons and did not actually start until 3:30 so we hurried for no reason and then stood around for 45 minutes. That’s why I am not giving 5 stars. Our tour guide Francesco and the amazing subject matter made up for it. The Vatican museums are stunning and very interesting and the Sistine Chapel is also awe inspiring. Do not miss them when in Rome!

    Josephine was terrific! So knowledgeable with funny, offering lots of interesting details and stories. The museums & Sistine Chapel were incredible…beyond imagination

  10. William_B

    Our guide was excellent. Knew the history and injected some humor plus he had a great way of including everyone, young and old in the tour

  11. GeraldineP_M

    We enjoyed the tour and the guide was very informative. The only issue was the amount of tour groups. It was packed. Maybe need to stagger the tour groups more. We had my sister-in-law with us and it was hard for her to walk and get around.

  12. John_K

    The tour itself was great. Our guide was friendly, humorous and very knowledgeable. My reasoning for not rating this a 5-star experience was because of the encounter we had with the booking agent. We arrived 20 minutes early for our 11:15 a.m. tour where the agent directed us to walk across the street to a nearby café. Clearly there was a misunderstanding because our agent never came by to grab us for our tour, which led us to missing our originally scheduled time. Luckily, she got us into the next slot which was only 2 hours later. This was a magnificent experience otherwise! Highly recommend.

    Tour company arbitrarily changed the time of the tour so we couldn’t actually go on the guided tour or we’d miss our flight. We took the admission tickets and then did a rushed self guided tour so we could see everything. We went to Rome specifically for the Vatican tour.

  14. Heather_R

    We had a brilliant tour around the Vatican. We skipped the queue straight away and walked straight in. Our tour guide, Monica was incredible. Her knowledge was exceptional and she was warm and friendly when we asked questions. THE best tour we have done.

  15. Julia_M

    Sistine Chapel amazing it was on my bucket list and hope to go again. The group manager was very knowledgeable and funny.

  16. evan_k

    Couldnt pay me to do this one again. Unorganized, impersonal. Have to blame a lot of it on the Vatican itself as they stuff far too many large group tours into small hallways

  17. Lisa_K

    We had a great experience! Tour guide was very knowledgeable and funny. Would definitely recommend this trip and this tour operator. Will definitely use them again

  18. Sarah_R

    We enjoyed seeing the Vatican museums and the Sistine chapel. It was very crowded and difficult to hear and keep up with our tour guide. She was very knowledgeable but her accent was strong. I am glad we did the tour.

    I am compelled to share my recent experience with the tour at the museum, which was nothing short of a complete disappointment. We had made the decision to book this tour due to our travel circumstances, as we were accompanied by our baby and wanted to avoid any confusion or getting lost in the vastness of the museum. However, our expectations were shattered, and I firmly believe that a full refund is in order for the numerous issues we encountered.
    Upon our arrival, we were informed that the tour guide was unavailable, and instead, we were offered “skip the line” tickets as a consolation. While we appreciated the gesture, it paled in comparison to the absence of an expert guide who could have enhanced our understanding and appreciation of the museum’s treasures.
    To make matters worse, we were directed to the ticket counter at approximately 3 p.m., only to be left waiting for an additional 40 minutes until the tickets were finally made available. This unnecessary delay not only disrupted our carefully planned schedule but also wasted valuable time that we could have spent exploring the museum.
    Adding insult to injury, we were provided with incorrect information regarding the closing time for the entrance to the Sistine Chapel. We were explicitly instructed to be at the chapel entrance by 4:30 p.m. as it supposedly closed around 4:45 p.m. However, it turns out that we were misinformed, and it was actually the entrance from the Sistine Chapel to St. Peter’s Basilica that closed at 4:45 p.m. This erroneous guidance caused immense confusion, resulting in my husband, my daughter, and I getting separated when the entrance closed unexpectedly. I was forced to undertake a lengthy detour on foot, enduring approximately an hour of anxiety and stress, just to rejoin my family and enter the Basilica entrance line.
    As a consequence of this chain of unfortunate events, our tour began a staggering 45 minutes behind schedule, leaving us with a measly amount of time to explore the Vatican Museum. This significantly hindered our ability to fully immerse ourselves in the museum’s wonders and appreciate its historical and cultural significance.
    Given the immense dissatisfaction and inconvenience we encountered throughout the tour, I firmly request a full refund for the entirety of this experience. Our expectations were high, especially considering the specific tour we had chosen to ensure a seamless and enjoyable visit with our baby. However, the absence of a guide, the protracted ticketing process, the dissemination of false information regarding closing times, and the subsequent separation from my family irreparably tarnished what should have been a memorable visit.
    I implore the tour organizers to take our grievances seriously and address this matter promptly. It is my hope that they will acknowledge the magnitude of our disappointment and provide a satisfactory resolution to this regrettable situation.
    In conclusion, I would strongly advise against booking this tour, as our experience left much to be desired. The lack of proper guidance and organization severely hampered our ability to make the most of our visit. I sincerely hope that appropriate measures will be taken to rectify these issues, and I eagerly anticipate a swift response regarding the requested refund.
