Our personal tour guide was not only very knowledgeable, but also very enthusiastic. He shared info on key pieces in a logical, concise fashion and kept our attention for over 3 hours. Skipping the LINE is worth the money it was an experience of a lifetime and I've traveled and been to many museums!

It was well worth the money to take the private tour. We skipped all the lines, and the guide was fantastic in his knowledge of the different art.

I have to thank you for arranging an absolute "wow" experience. After an initial misunderstanding where we were nearly placed in the general group, we met our guide, who was really well informed and made us feel relaxed. It made all the difference to have someone with knowledge taking us around without having to try and consult guide books for information. I would have gone again the next morning too!

What a treat! Our guide presented us with a wealth of information as she brought history alive for us all from age 10 to 52!

At times, it seemed my tour guide was more interested in trying to crack lame jokes and gushing over Barack Obama than in the tour. When I am touring the Vatican, the last thing I want to hear about is Bill Clinton and a cigar.

Had a lovely tour guide. Her tour company would not have charged us over 450.00 US to do this tour. The Viator fees are over the top expensive. Otherwise, the tour was good.

Our guide was an art history major, perfectly suited for this particular tour. However, the tour took longer than we anticipated, and we began to lose interest. Unless you're really into historical art big time, you might want to consider the alternative tours.

This is the way to see the Vatican Museums. We went straight to the front of the line, and it was a long line. The tour guide was friendly and very knowledgeable and pointed out all of the interesting things to see in the museums, and shared the history and facts about the artifacts. We truly enjoyed our tour!

Our guide was excellent, but our admission was delayed for an hour because of a mix-up between Viator and the Vactican staff. Although we skipped the line, we entered at the same time as the general public.
