Must book this amazing Vatican tour

We had an incredible experience on our Vatican tour and we cant say enough good things about our guide Monica She was so kind knowledgeable and attentive throughout the entire tour My boyfriend and I brought my grandmother along on this trip to Italy and this particular tour meant the world to her Since she uses a wheelchair due to the amount of walking involved we were initially worried about accessibilitybut Monica went above and beyond to make sure my grandmother felt included every step of the way She never once let her feel left behind or overlooked and that care made all the difference for us The storytelling the history and the immersive atmosphere made it such a special experience for our whole family I cant recommend this tour enoughespecially the skiptheline feature which saved us so much time and stress Truly a mustbook if youre visiting the Vatican
