Lovely tour and guide. Will want to visit Rome again, but just did one day and the tour.

Was a super PACKED day trying to see everything but it was definitely worth it! If you want to spend time actually getting to look at everything in the Vatican at your own pace I would recommend splitting up the tour because this one felt a little rushed but otherwise if you’re short on time this is perfect for getting to see everything in one day.

Great experience. Very well organized and great value for money. Brilliant guide (Monica). Very enthusiastic, knowledgeable and friendly. Covered all the sites Rome has to offer in a limited time. If we were to do it again I would probably split this experience over 2 days rather than all in 1 day, as everything was worth seeing and spending time to experience. It was a lot to try and do in a limited time, but overall definitely a fantastic day and worth the money
