Efficient but very informative tour

Oxana was a great tour guide It was my second time at the Vatican City and learnedenjoyed a lot finally She had a great sense of humor and was very knowledgable to be able to answer our questions There were a lot of things to look and information to digest so be prepared to ask questions as some may not be covered due to the limited tour time 253hrs Note It will require you to walk a lot Wear a comfy pair of shoes bring a bottle of water and a smalllight bag

Excellent Tour

Tour length and content was perfect and delivered everything listed in the description Our tour guide Pasquino was very informative and obviously experienced in navigating Vatican City We were able to enter the museums at our scheduled time with very little time spent in lines Pasquino was able to lead us through the museums and the Sistine Chapel efficiently while spending adequate time pointing out and describing the main highlights I cant imagine trying to negotiate the crowds without the help of an experienced guide We were also able to enter St Pauls Cathedral without waiting in the normal line

ABSOLUTELY Book this Tour

I cannot say enough great things about this tour with Catalina She was absolutely AMAZING Her knowledge and personality were just incredible and we had a blast We could have talked with her for an entire day and this was even my 17 year olds opinion as well I would absolutely hands down do this trip over with Catalina as the guide Cant speak for the others but you will love this tour if you want to understand the history of Rome and the Vatican
