Wonderful

Our guide Oxanna was absolutely wonderful She shared so much rich information about the history and art of the Vatican and she was kind and engaging in her interactions with the group The tour was an ideal length in that we learned a ton without being overwhelmed and that includes our teenage daughters Five stars all around

Use skip the line option or youll be sorry

Our guide Riccardo was extremely knowledgeable and friendly I wish I could retain a small Percentage of all he knows The 4 out of 5 stars is no reflection on him He was outstanding My rating is just the crowds Omg the crowds We had a skip the line tour and I cannot even imagine doing it any other way or we would have spent another 2 hours just waiting in lines It was like Christian Disney

The Vatican Experience

The tour was highly informative and our guide moved us through the very busy crowds pretty well She spoke with an Italian accent in English but I was able to understand her Her knowledge of the Vatican its museums were impeccable It can be a bit overwhelming but even if you retain 10 if it youll take away something you didnt have before you saw it
