Excellent - This was our 4th visit to the Vatican. It was the best by far! Because of our tour guide’Fabio’. His knowledge, patience and concern for members of our group with mobility problems were outstanding!

Amazing tour with Fabio! - Absolutely amazing experience; Fabio, the guide, was very knowledgeable, funny and helpful. We spend an afternoon visiting Vatican museum, the Sistine Chapel and the St Peter Basilica. The only minus was the excessive noise in the Sistine Chapel, did not felt like a place to pray and worship. Definitely worth it, it’s by far an unique experience.

Great way to see and experience the Vatican - Very knowledgeable and pure interest in the art work. We were in a small group and I think this option (without knowing standard tours) was the best option. We did see most areas with our tour guide, after the St. Peter church we left for our own exploration of the top Dome & Grotto’s All in all 3-4h well spent.

Fantastic - We loved the visit with Carolina. From the first moment he hooked us with his explanations full of wisdom and sweetness. He is a person who enjoys his work and knew how to convey the greatness of the time and place we were visiting. Thank you for sharing your passion for history with us, it has been a magnificent tour.

Visit the Vatican with guide Carolina - Excellent visit to the Vatican: museums, the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica with Carolina's guide. Very professional, taking the time necessary to explain and tell curiosities. It was very interesting and with a calm pace in that sea of people. Small group, highly recommended.

Passion and knowledge of guide is the key! - This was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Easy to book and well organised. Roberta was our guide and her knowledge, experience and, above all, passion for the artwork at the sites was the highlight. We felt like we were following a TV documentary around the Vatican. Thanks for a great experience.

Great guide and good tour despite crowds and time-constraints - Mara was a very good guide. Her English was excellent. Our group was mostly 50+, from what it appeared, and she progressed at an appropriate pace. Mara was pleasant and seemed to want to make sure all of us were doing ok during the tour. The tour itself was good despite tremendous crowds. We appreciated being able to spend more time in the basilica after the tour.
