Our tour guide was lovely. She made sure everyone was safe and accounted for at all times, during a very very busy and hectic time at the Vatican. She not only told us all the history, but she learnt which countries every single person in her tour group was from and had anecdotes for each person. Ours was the lapis in the floor, and that the pope gifted the queen a piece and she brought some whisky. A Belgian couple got a comprehensive talk on the tapestries. She allowed for breaks, photo opportunities and was very friendly. The only thing that would have made it 10/10 was a tour of the basicila included, as we lost our guide immediately after entry and just wandered and ended up walking through the tombs of the popes to the exit. It’s a long day but worth it to see everything. It was also frustrating to see it being sold for £30-40 when we paid much more than that.

Such a great tour! Worth all the money, we walked by the regular ticket entrance and that line was at least 2 hours long in 90f degree heat! Our guide was so lovely, explaining all the museum and giving us info before entering the Sistine chapel, since you can’t talk or take pictures inside. The extra bonus of having entry into St Peter’s Basillica and not having to wait in another very long line was a game changer! It was crowded, obviously! But even so our tour guide was conscious of everyone on the tour and courteous enough to make sure we could stand in the shade when able or find water fountains to fill up our bottles! I’ve heard nightmares of trying to visit the Vatican, we did so with such ease I would do it again in a heartbeat! Even to go to the top of the dome (not included in this tour) was easy once we were inside the Basillica! Amazing

Really well organised with headset which made it very easy to listen when it was so busy. Helpful, friendly guide who answered all of our questions. Tour is about 3 hours but it doesn’t feel too long as it was really interesting and beautiful. We have already recommended family members to attend.
