St. Peter's Basilica on my own! - Each step was easily spelled out, and I loved that the history of each part of the Basilica was described. I was able to go at my own pace and not have to deal with a group of other people. It was like having my own personal tour guide for a fraction of the cost!

Saving time - My experience with the GetYourGuide self-guided tour was amazing - we saved a lot of time by entering the Basilica via a dedicated entrance. Everything worked perfectly, I fully recommend it.
