Extremely Informative and Helpful Tour

Adriano was an amazing tour guidereally knowledgeable and helped us navigate the large crowds with ease We got to spend a fair amount of time in each of the highlights and we could hear everything really well through the provided audio headsets Two tips 1 initially when entering the Vatican Museum there are lines but they move quicklythis is not the line you are paying to skip You are going to be very happy that you went on this tour and skipped the line to enter the Vatican itself You will see a long line of tourists waiting in St Peters Square toward the end of the tour waiting to get into the cathedral By going on this tour you get to avoid all of that 2 There are a couple of spots where the audio might cut out if you get too separated from the guidethis is unavoidable because of the amount of concrete between you If this happens just hasten to catch up to the guide If memory serves this was going through the rooms just prior to the Sistine Chapel

Great Guide at the Vatican Museum matters

We enjoyed seeing the Vatican Museum so much more with our tour guide Marcello His knowledge was priceless as the museum can be overwhelming with all there is to see and the crowds The meeting point was easy to find You definitely want a great guide at the Vatican Museum and Marcello with EcoArt was ours
