Great tourShame about the other 17000 people

Adriano is a really nice guy He was very informative However i do think he needs to slow down a little as it was difficult to understand him at times I also found the Vatican extremely busy and as with all guides you can hear the crowds on the guides microphone This is not the fault of the guide but maybe the fault of the Vatican who allow between 17000 and 20000 people a day through the city However taking all that into consideration the Sistine Chapel is just unbelievableThanks

Mustsee place to visit

I understand the challenges of moving a group around in a crowded area however our tour guide did an excellent job keeping us together adjusting wherever possible to allow us to take in the beauty of the place This will be on my list of place to go back to when Im in Rome again

Essential experience

This was a wellorganised experience with a passionate and knowledgeable Guide Macello who kept us engaged throughout The Vatican can feel overwhelming there is so much to see and it was very busy Being with a Guide meant we navigated this stressfree with all the fascinating context and information about what we were looking at Would absolutely recommend
