We did the Forum and Coloseum tour

We did the Forum and Coloseum tour I was happy with it overall The tour guide was very knowledgeable I wouldnt have known what any of the stuff in the Forum was without the tour Her presentation tone leaned a bit secular at times specificially when discussing anything involving Christianity but overall remained largely factual and neutral I would have liked maybe a bit more free time to explore though

The Vatican with Eddy

Eddy was awesome He was sooo informative like walking Wikipedia He made the tour very interesting with little tidbits of information not found in history books and added humor to the tour as well He was also considerate and courteous of the extra time I needed when walking due to my walking handicap Even though he had a wonderful Italian accent he always made sure to ask the group if we understood him or had any questions Highly recommend Eddy

Skip the line is a must

I cant say enough about how much we enjoyed Ricardo and the skip the line tour to the Vatican When you end your tour and see the endless line in St Peters Square you truly appreciate the convenience of skipping the line and knowledge of your tour guide

Skip the queue and guides are a must have

The Vatican is beautiful and very busy It is paramount that you book the Skip The Queue My partner and I walked the entire city before finding our tour and the line for Vatican spanned the entire length of the city I would also suggest getting a guide there isnt an awful amount of information displayed on plaques so its easier to be guided by someone who was knowledgeable We were provided with headsets The Vatican is very busy so it was extremely valuable to have these so we could hear our guide at all times 2 main tips The Vatican is a holy place its importable to read up on the dress code and respect the holy areas When we went into the Sistine Chapel it was very loud with other tourists which took away from the experience The Vatican Museums are fine to speak openly The Vatican museums Sistine Chapel and the Bascillica do not have air conditioning take this into consideration when youre choosing to what time of year you go We went early July and the heat was hard to stand The guide was extremely helpful and knowledgeable and they will make you appreciate everything a lot more
