Vatican overload

The Vatican is overwhelming to be honest The volume of things to see number of people there and we went on a weekday and the history is incredible Our guide was Doriana and she was amazing 5 stars Not often to get a PhD as a guide and she both knows so much and is enthusiastic and funny

Brilliant tour

The queues were enormous so we were glad we had booked the Skip the line tour Eddy reckoned it wasnt that busy and showed us photos of busy days and we could see what he meant Brilliant tour Eddy was great very informative and with a sense of humour It was a smallish group which was a positive and meant Eddy could spend more time explaining stuff to us

Worthwhile tour and skipping the line

The tour was all around great from check in to the museum Sistine chapel and direction to the basilica Rosa was a fantastic tour guide extremely knowledgeable and entertaining It is definitely worth it to do a tour to get more information on the history and context of the artwork and sculptures of the Vatican Be prepared for a bit of a long day as we didnt have much energy to explore Vatican City after the tour and dealing with lines and crowds

The best art tour in Rome

Jeannette is an amazing tour guide her knowledge of art history is extensive She masterfully discussed the differences between the Baroque early mid and late Renaissance As we approached a painting Jeannette would ask what drew us into the canvas and how the characters directed us to the next part of the story the artist was portraying She also addressed a painters lack of knowledge about the human anatomy with awkward proportions or by using the same face for all the figures in the painting It was incredible to learn that boys as young as 6 were training as an apprentice With the sculptures she showed how the artist added depth to each piece by the way a persons skin was conveyed and how to tell if the subject was young adult or elderly Historical tidbits about the Cardinals buying art on the cheap and using poor grade marble for his statuary added to the charm of the program An incredible afternoon at the Borghese Gallery
