Amazing tour of Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel

Amazing tour of the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel We got to skip the lines for tickets and entry learned a lot of interesting history of the museum pieces in a way that was engaging and not boring and we got to walk through the Sistine Chapel at the end The tour ended in Saint Peters Square just outside of the Basilica My tour did not include your access of the Basilica However my party and I were able to go into the Basilica ourselves with no trouble received the sacrament of confession walked through the holy doors and attended a mass A really wonderful experience

Amazing experience

Nicoletta was our tour guide and she was amazing Shes so knowledgeable and delivers information with passion making the stories come to life so you can imagine what time was like back when history was being made Nicoletta made the tour interesting by engaging with the group and making sure everyone was included taking water breaks and shade breaks for the hot summer day as well as giving us time to take photos and ask questions too

Long but amazing tour

Our tour guide was very friendly The tour is very long about 25 hours with the guide plus whatever time we wanted to spend in the basilica without the tour guide Our guide was very knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions that were asked of her The tour was very hot with very little moving air so plan accordingly along with following the guidelines set by the church There is a lot to see and there isnt time to stop and see everything Our guide told us that to stop and actually look at every piece of art for a minute in the museum it would take over a year to do All in all we were very happy with our experience and with our guide
