It was very nice to forgo standing in line and get right into the Vatican Museums. Our guide was very knowledgeable and the use of the audio receivers was very helpful. It was good to be picked up at our hotel, although it could have been later as we stood around aimlessly for about 45 minutes until the tour began.

I really enjoyed the overall experience and learning so much from the tour guide. The one shame was it didn't last longer.

The English-speaking tour guide was brilliant; she obviously loved her subject and was very good at explaining everything. She was very calm with the American lady who continually wanted the "restroom" even though there wasn't one!

Transportation from hotel to Vatican was on time and in a nice air-conditioned van. Skipped very long line, but the guide was the best part of the tour. She was very knowledgeable, bright and had a sense of humor. Worth every penny!

Excellent service; they picked us up on time from the hotel, the guide was kind and knowledgeable, and we did avoid the lines to enter.

A must for any tourist in Rome. Unfortunately no pictures or video allowed in the Sistine Chapel so just sit back and take in the atmosphere of a truly memorable place. Guide was very good, knowledgeable and allowed time for questions and pictures, where allowed. Pick up from hotel was prompt and organisation of tour very punctual.

Perfect! Enlightening and will always remember this tour. Your tour guide was amazing. From the stories to the historical knowledge. All I can say was WOW and don't loose her.

The guide was so informative and knew the history of everything that we saw at the museum and the chapel. My children learned so much through your tour. I would be amazed if all the other tours had a guide as good as ours. When we left we saw the line of people waiting for the museum, which we honestly never saw the end. If you plan to see the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel this tour is the only way to go. The lunch at the cafe was really good and the atmosphere was just what we wanted. The guide for the afternoon tour to the Catacombs and area churches was even better. She truly was engaging. My daughters were captivated by her. She made the tour of the churches the highlight of our trip.

Outstanding tour, it's so much better having a guide to tell you what you're looking at and to show you the best of the best. You can spend all day at the museum, but we saw the main sights in 3 hours. Wonderful guide. The Sistine Chapel was amazing, especially after it's been renovated, too bad you can't take pictures inside. The hotel pick-up was so convenient! We stayed behind after the tour to see St. Peter's Basilica on our own, I wish they had the option to include it with the tour. Then we took a taxi into town for dinner about 10 euro, not bad. Overall this was one of my favorite tours we did in Italy!
