Our guide was great, and got us to the front where we had a close up view of the Pope. Would recommend this tour.

Viator VIP: Sistine Chapel Private Viewing and Small-Group Tour of the Vatican's Secret Rooms
Rome, Italy
My Rating

This is a very expensive tour and it was great being in a small group but I wondered if the secret rooms are really worth the money. However the experience of being in the Sistine Chapel when everyone else had left was a wonderful feeling and we were allowed to take photos.

Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum Half-Day Trip from Krakow
Krakow, Poland
My Rating

The tour guide was a bit casual and couldn't get the DVD player to work so we were unable to watch the film on the way there which was a pity but they did play it on the way home. We did the afternoon tour and there were not huge crowds of people. The guide at Auschwitz was a local lady who made the whole experience so real and emotional. It is an amazing place, although sad, and well worth the visit, I recommend doing the 3 pm tour as it is not rushed and the camp at Birkenau took on a very eerie feeling as the sun was setting.

Cesky Krumlov Day Trip from Prague
Prague, Czech Republic
My Rating

What a lovely day we had travelling through the countryside, we chose to go on a Tuesday as recommended by other reviews that it is too busy on the roads on Sundays. The guide gave us information about the country, farming etc on the way and was happy to answer any questions we had. Cesky Krumlov is an amazing place and certainly worth the long bus trip.

Werfen Ice Caves Tour from Salzburg
Salzburg, Austria
My Rating

You really do need a certain levle of fitness as it is a long walk uphill to the entrance to the cave and then lots of steps inside, but providing you are fit enough it is certainly well worth the visit. The views over the country side from the mountain are beautiful.

Salzburg Super Saver: Bavarian Mountains including Eagle's Nest and Salt Mines
Salzburg, Austria
My Rating

The trip to Eagles Nest was a bit dissapointing in that Hitler really did nothing there, and there isn't that much to see especially if it is a cloudy day. Otherwise I guess the view would have been great. But we did have a great time doing the salt mine tour, it was interesting to see how they mine the salt there and we enjoyed sliding down the wooden slides.
