Doing what: Skip the Line: Vatican Museums Walking Tour including Sistine Chapel, Raphael's Rooms and St Peter's
This is a definite must if you are going to the Vatican or St. Peter's. Honestly, any time you're in Rome, this is a must see! So much information is given, it will boggle your mind, plus the amount of beauty and art and history you will see will overwhelm you. Skipping the line will save you hours and lets you enjoy that time viewing more things. Our guide was from the US and was an art major, so she knew her stuff and made the tour even more fun.

Doing what: Skip the Line: Vatican Museums Walking Tour including Sistine Chapel, Raphael's Rooms and St Peter's
Rome is now one of my favorite places in the world, thanks to this amazing tour and tour guide. Our guide, whose praises are just deserved in the reviews by many others, was totally brilliant, witty, and funny. We skipped the entry queue, which was very long, and received a briefing and headsets to hear the guide. The only downside was that there was not enough time available to stop off everywhere, which isn't possible in a day anyway. However, we covered all the major works of art by Raphael, Michelangelo, and other sculptures in the Vatican. Then we were free to explore St. Peter's. Do not book any tour that will skip the Sistine Chapel - it is a must see, once in a lifetime, piece of work! Totally recommended and one hundred percent satisfied!

Doing what: Skip the Line: Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel and St Peter's Basilica Half-Day Walking Tour
We loved the tour. The group met exactly on time at the newsstand. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. She went above and beyond, regarding history of the museum. I would recommend bringing an umbrella for the long lines and drinks. Don't be intimidated by the long line, as it moves fast. My only recommendation would be to have at least twenty minutes to view the Sistine Chapel. It felt like we spent too much time in the other parts of the Vatican and not enough time in the Sistine. Overall, it was still a great tour. We would use Viator again for any other Rome tour.
