Knowledgeable Guide and Great Tour

Overall we really enjoyed this excursion Our tour guide was friendly knowledgeable and did an excellent job explaining the history and significance of the Vatican Museums the Sistine Chapel and St Peters Basilica Her enthusiasm and expertise made the experience much more enjoyable The only drawback was the meeting location The instructions for where to meet the tour group were not clearly explained and it was difficult to find the correct meeting point More detailed directions a map or recognizable landmarks would make the start of the excursion much less stressful Once we found the group everything went smoothly and we had a wonderful experience I would recommend this excursion

Must see in Rome

The tour was very informative and Vincenza was a great guide We found it to be about an hour too long Half of our group bailed after the Colosseum portion The security was a little over the top to get in compared to other attractions we visited in Rome so be prepared
