To do with skip the line St Peter's Basilica - The visit also included a. Skip the line for St Peter's Basilica. Our guide was very interesting, we were able to enjoy the main rooms with the Raphaels, the Sistine Chapel and especially access without queuing to the basilica. It's incredible because no photo captures the immensity of the places and the richness of the collections.

Good tour, but hard to understand guide. - Good tour, very thorough. Took the tour with an English speaking tour guide and you could tell that he was extremely knowledgeable, however his Italian accent was super thick so unfortunately it was difficult to understand a lot of what he was saying.
