Reviews for Vatican & Sistine Chapel Tour With Access To St. Peter’s Basilica
A great way to tour the Vatican
Patricia
Julianna was an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable which made our trip all the more interesting. The tour tour over 3 hours and it would be difficult for those with limited mobility.
Everything I wanted in a Vatican tour
Naomi_S
This tour surpassed my every expectation! Julianna is an amazing tour guide, kind and informative, extremely professional and with a clear love of the subject matter. She was also great at navigating through crowds so I never felt like a sardine in a can and was always able to find good sight lines. I learned so much and definitely wouldn’t have gotten the same experience had I gone without a guide. Skipping the line was worth it, and entering the museum was extremely smooth. One thing to note is while the tour advertises itself as being two hours, it’s more like four - and that’s without the time you’ll spend exploring St. Peter’s Basilica on your own! So budget 4-5 hours for this. I’d describe the pace of the tour as slow but steady - it felt like we were constantly moving but weren’t rushed. Overall, a great experience!
Excellent Tour Guide
Brent_S
Deny, our tour guide, was excellent. Very knowledgeable and shared stories about famous characters that took it to another level. Highly recommend her!!
Boring because I couldn’t hear
Sharon_C
I’m hearing impaired, so I couldn’t hear the guide for the most part. You should caution visitors so they are aware.
Definitely recommend
