A Great First Look at the Vatican

The tour company were very well organised and spoke excellent English This included our tour guide Marcello who was very knowledgable with a great sense of humour The tour is 25 hours on your feet so be prepared for a lot of walking However its a great way to get a first taste of this huge museum The Sistine Chapel is spectacular and Marcello explained it well before our entry We were also able to get Skip the Line entry to St Peters at the end of the tour Highly recommended

Moet je gezien hebben in Rome

Sixtijnse kapel en St Pieters basiliek Om de Sixtijnse kapel te zien moet je eerst een gang door at bestaat uit meerdere musea Ook al een hele mooie ervaring op zich Na de Sixtijnse kapel kun je de ST Pieters basiliek bezoeken Neem vooral de skip the Line kaartjes Anders sta je tenminste 2 x 3 uur in de rij om te wachten om binnen te komen bij beiden Sixtijnse kapel kan ook alleen met gids dus boek deze er ook meteen bij Kost wat maar is het geld waard
