Great experience. Our guide was very average. It takes about 2 hrs but you can stay longer if you like

The tour started on time, it saved all the waiting to get in and buy tickets. The time of year, sept is very busy. The vatican was extremely full of people and this took away from the experience but that is not the fault of the tour. The guide was friendly. I was here before so i know the we did not see all the art, in fact we skipped a lot of the best paintings. Its an amazing collection but too many people.. the tour took the stress out of the visit by organizing everything.

Just the right amount of information with free time. Very knowledgeable guide. Great experience! Skip the line worked really well and saved a lot of time. Only downside was they cancelled the tour last minute and offered us an earlier tour so was a bit of a rush.

St. Peter's Basilica and square were beautiful. Equally memorable were the long-lines where you were unable to move, breathe or stay with your group at the Vatican museum. the tour also had far too much time on the art vs. the history, the popes, Catholicism, etc. I saw far too many old relics, jars, etc. that were the same. the main treasures were amazing, the secondary items and the quantity of them was far too much.

Magdalena_S

It didn't start well as it was a busy day and we were delayed by an hour. However, when it started it was great. Our tour guide (a Russian lady with excellent English, Lydia?) was extremely knowledgeable about Vatican, Rome and the overall history. She knew all the tricks how to make the most of your tour and managed to get us into the Sixtine Chapel pretty quickly. I truly recommend her as a guide. It was an amazing experience.

The sites, themselves, are the experience. One doesn’t need a guide as I did not have one when I saw the Colosseum and Roman Forum years ago but it is interesting to learn more as you walk through. HOWEVER!! Our tour guide, Luneta (Elena) Ignat is so knowledgeable that she unfortunately speaks very quickly and almost droned on & on with facts that it was difficult to keep up/understand so she lost some of us earlier than the experience ended. We were “done” listening to the incessant sound in our ear - it became like a hum. I asked her two questions during the 2 1/2 hours and it was difficult to try and get a word in to ask her in the first place. She is adorable, though!

Very informative. Loved my tour guide. Second time to the vatican and chapel and it was like being there again for the first time. Thank you for the experience. I will consider your company next time we visit.

You could spend days in the Vatican going through the history and displays. Absolutely beautiful. And the Sistine Chapel - wow. Although a bit crowded, it is worth the time.
