This was very well planned. We arrived at a very good time and got very good seats. We had the chance to see the Pope very close up.

A great experience. It was a surprise 50th birthday present for my husband. Everything went perfect, bus was on time and the tour guide was very informative and friendly and I recommend taking a hat to wear and a cold drink as it was very hot. We both loved the visit. We were in Rome for 4 days and this tour was definitely our best day out.

I'd definitely do this tour again. The bus trip was a bit boring and the tour guide was interesting, but he seemed bored with himself. We got to Vatican City late because the car agency hired to pick us up at the hotel was forty five minutes late. Being in the same vicinity of the Pope is a great experience, but being close enough for him to wave at my kids was something totally unexpected and thrilling. That made the tour worthwhile. If you want to see the Pope up close, you won't do it sitting where the tour seats you. Make sure you sit next to the barricade as the Popemobile drives right by. Also, bring lots of water and an umbrella. It was very hot. All in all, a great experience. I'd do it again.

What a brilliant trip! It was a very special day for my husband and me, our pearl anniversary. The atmosphere was very informal and happy. There were people from all over the world. When the pope came out onto the stage, the crowd treated him as a superstar. It was a very moving experience. We had brought a family photo collage, along with some artifacts, for the pope to bless. It would have been nice to be nearer to the front, but in the end it didn't really matter. The experience will stay with us for the rest of our lives.
