Paola made our experience at The Vatican Museums something truly special - Paola was EXCEPTIONAL in every way. Her personality is warm and welcome and she immediately connected with us, before we even approached the gates. Inside she was extremely knowledgeable, interested and passionate about her job. We asked many questions and she always had an answer. It was as if she was discovering the museum for the first time with us. We so appreciated her demeanor and her ability to explore with us and see the museum through our eyes. If there is any criticism at all, it would be that we wanted more time with her and yet we were on a very strict schedule in order to get through… Which is understandable. My wife and I enjoyed Paola so much. We wish we could request her for every tour. I would be remiss not to mention the fact that LivTours also made things extremely easy for us. It was a wonderful experience all around. Grazi Mille!

A truly wonderful experience thanks to Giovanni - We booked a private tour and Giovanni was so personable, knowledgeable, kind, and went above and beyond for references for after our tour. During our tour he took the time to educate us about the important details throughout the museum that made the experience truly unique.

Beyond Words - The experience of being in the Sistine Chapel with a small group can not be expressed in words! Must see it for yourself.

Giovanni knows his stuff. Book it now. - This was a great tour! I would take another next time we are in Rome. The wealth of knowledge was mind blowing. It was worth every penny and the length fit our evening schedule perfect. An added bonus was a recommendation for a local non tourist restaurant for dinner.

Oksana was the best guide! - This tour was perfect for us since it wasn’t as long as the day tour but we still got to see the highlights of the Vatican & Sistine Chapel. Oksana was the best guide we could ever ask for. She was very knowledgeable and kind, and answered every question we had without issue. Would 100% recommend her for anyone else going on this tour!

Laura Sensj is the best tour guide in Rome!! - Our tour with Laura Sensi was exceptional from start to finish. Laura’s expert knowledge of the Vatican, Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter’s Basilica brought history and art to life in a way that was both fascinating and easy to understand. Every explanation was clear, insightful, and delivered with genuine passion. Beyond expertise, Laura was incredibly kind and attentive, making sure everyone felt comfortable and engaged throughout the tour. The pacing was perfect, and all questions were answered thoughtfully. This experience was truly unforgettable thanks to Laura’s professionalism and warmth. Highly recommend Laura to anyone looking for a top-tier Vatican experience!!
