Overall we really enjoyed this excursion Our tour guide was friendly knowledgeable and did an excellent job explaining the history and significance of the Vatican Museums the Sistine Chapel and St Peters Basilica Her enthusiasm and expertise made the experience much more enjoyable The only drawback was the meeting location The instructions for where to meet the tour group were not clearly explained and it was difficult to find the correct meeting point More detailed directions a map or recognizable landmarks would make the start of the excursion much less stressful Once we found the group everything went smoothly and we had a wonderful experience I would recommend this excursion
