Highly recommend joining a guided tour in Colosseum Not only does it save you time from waiting in long lines but the guide also takes you to the best photo spots

Highly recommend joining a guided tour in Colosseum Not only does it save you time from waiting in long lines but the guide also takes you to the best photo spots We were lucky to have Maria Luisa as our guideshe was incredibly patient and attentive She often checked in to see if we had any questions and her explanations paired with visual comparisons really helped us imagine what everything looked like in the past It was absolutely worth the money The experience made us want to come back again to relive the history of Rome It was truly an unforgettable and impressive experience

Vatican Museum St Peters Basilica

Absolute not a reflection on the guide Ricciardo who was awesome The tour was very good but the museum is so large and busy during the summer that you have to move through it fairly quickly and deal with large crowds with not as much time to admire things as you might like That said despite being busy we did have ample time in the Sistine Chapel and St Peters Basilica which were clearly the highlights of the tour Definitely worth doing just have reasonable expectations about what is possible in three hours in the busy summer season

Vatican tour is amazing but there is a catch

Amazing experience Excellent guide who made everything very interesting St Peters basilica and square opens at 1pm so if you dont want to wait just outside the Sistene Chapel you can go to the cafe which we did We were told you have to then reenter the Vatican and go through for a second time but we could go through short cuts That turned out to be wrong We had to work our way through large crowds in hot conditions and guards were rude when we asked about the short cuts They simply let too many people in But once through St Peters was worth doing but it tests your patience
