Totally an awesome experience. Because of booking a tour, we had great seats and skipped the long lines. I couldn't imagine trying to have this experience without a guide.

Very close to the route of the Pope on his entrance in the popemobile. Very hot and, unfortunately, too many people having disregard for others by standing on the chairs blocking the view.

Absolutely fabulous!! Took several pictures of Pope Benedict XVI in his Pope Mobile when he was just 6-7 feet away. I am anxious to develop the film. God Bless Everyone.

Was absolutely fab. Well worth the money. Was great to skip the queues. Atmosphere was fantastic. Great honour to see the Pope in St Peter's Square.

Lucky us, instead of the Papal Audience, Pope Benedict celebrated Mass as it was Pope John Paul's 3rd anniversary. The tour took the hassle out it and we had great seats. It was an extremely moving experience.

It was the Wednesday after Easter and raining, but it was wonderful as seats were close, and getting through lines was worth the tour. Did not like being taken to buy in the store where we stopped, as prices were much higher than the Vatican. The tour operator pushed shopping on every tour that we booked with them.

I would just like to say it was well worth doing. The audience with the Pope was just superb. I just can't believe I was with the Holy Father. There were 5000 people in the hall and because we booked with Viator we were almost at the front, so we had a fantastic view of the Pope. For the people at the back they had to look at the big screen, so thank you for making our trip a very well remembered one.

The pickup, transfer and tour were great. We got an excellent view of the Pope and were allowed to stay afterwards. Thank you!

A wonderful experience enhanced by our tour guide, plus the courteous way we could be dropped off anywhere in the city after the audience was GREAT.
