FANTASTIC TOUR WITH FELIX

We took this tour and loved it! Meeting place was easy to find. The tour started on time and skip the line is a must! We cleared security and got out head sets and were off on our adventure. Felix was incredibly knowledgeable and able to answer any question. The museums are amazing. The Sistine chapel is breathtaking. Saint Peters Bascilica is equally breathtaking! We had ample time for pictures and questions throughout. The tour ends in Saint Peters Square. This tour was well organized and worth the time and money. Loved it!

Outstanding Tour of Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel

Eddy was our tour guide. Eddy was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, interested, and caring. He gave us extra information to emphasize the points he wanted to share with us. He gave us time to think, to revel in the magnificent artwork of the Vatican. He was friendly and caring about our time with him. He engaged us to ask questions, to understand the points he was making. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Eddy. He was the best!! Thank you, Eddy.

Amazing tour! Highlight of our trip! Look no further than Eco Art Travel!

Could not recommend Eco Art Travel more! Made the mistake of going with a much larger tour group the first time we visited Rome, the Vatican and the Basilica. Our tour guide Chiara so charming, full of knowledge and information! She truly made our visit to the Vatican one we will never forget! We even booked skip the line tickets for the Coliseum and forum. I was very surprised when we could use the Colosseum tickets for one day and visit the forum the following day... if you have the extra time in the Rome I would highly recommend this. From the time we booked our tickets online, we had such a personal service from Guillaume. He answered all our questions before we arrived in Rome and made it very easy for us to navigate the tickets and locations.

Feedback for guide

Tour of Vatican museum, included opportunity to see transport used by Popes in the past and present. Sistine Chapel and Pieta personal favourites, made better with good explanations. Francesca was an excellent guide - knowledgable, patient and open. Much appreciated.

Excellent - highly recommend

Booked this tour via Expedia and couldn’t have asked for better - our guide Jeanette was excellent - knowledgeable, enthusiastic and very engaging- not easy to keep 2 teenage boys engaged for a 3 hr history tour but Jeanette managed it effortlessly and everyone in our party of 6 thought the tour and guide were excellent
