The guide was fantastic, and her enthusiasm was clearly evident. Our group numbered only 6, so it was extremely personal. We enjoyed the Sistine Chapel even though you can't take photos. We had to wait in the chapel for an important visitor who was holding a meeting with the pope. Didn't see the pope but did see his personal guards. Great tour which I highly recommend. Without the insight given by the guide, the sights themselves would still have been marvellous, but with the added information it was truly magnificent.

My husband and I loved the tour and for my husband to like a tour is very rare. We found our tour guide to be very informative and if it is your first time it is almost a must to take a tour. We were in the Vatican museum within a half an hour, skipping the line was nice. Even in the winter time it is still crowded and people looked to be waiting online for hours. Our guide was American so that made it easy to understand her and she definitely knew her stuff. Honestly this was the highlight of our trip and we highly recommend this tour to anyone.

It was absolutely the best way to get to the museum and the Sistine Chapel. Our very knowledgeable guide was great. It definitely made a difference to be there with her guidance. She only took us to the door of the basilica, no information about the inside.

This tour was absolutely amazing. Our tour guide is an archaeologist, and her knowledge astounded us. We especially liked having our own earphones so we wouldn't miss a thing that she said. This was the best part of our entire Italian vacation.

This was the highlight of our holiday. Do not do Vatican City without this tour! We learnt so much from our guide, and her knowledge and passion really bought the history alive. Easy to locate meeting points, and runs to time. Great!!!

Tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and thorough in her explanations. Since my group was on a particularly tight schedule in order to meet a bus, I wish we had left our meeting place on time rather than wait for missing parties. Otherwise, it was excellent.
