Wonderful Delightful and informative guide

This is a dont miss tour on your first visit to Rome The beauty of the works in the Vatican museums is beyond words and the grounds are breathtaking I loved that we were able to tour St Peters Basilica at the end at no extra charge The very best part of the tour was our guide Ursus He was so kind and knowledgeable and clearly loved sharing information about the history of the Vatican and details about the beautiful paintings and sculptures we were seeing The tour was crowded and many tourists were less respectful than I would have liked of the sacredness of the place especially in the Sistine Chapel but that was not something our guide could control Ursus was so patient and pleasant and did a great job of keeping everyone together and making sure everyone could hear him through small radio earbud sets I highly recommend this tour

Wonderful tour

Loreley had so much great information to share It was well worth the money to have a guide versus going through the Vatican museum on your own It was also great to go right into St Peters Basilica without waiting in the long line
