Worth It for the Experience but Be Ready for a Fast Pace

I highly recommend buying your ticket online in advance otherwise you may end up waiting in line for quite a while If you are considering a guided tour we had Martina who is very knowledgeable and genuinely funny I really appreciated that she didnt just focus on sharing information but also brought a sense of lightness to the whole experience She is very attentive to everyone and makes sure no one falls behind The Vatican Museums are huge There is so much to see that you could easily spend hours there If you prefer to explore at your own pace without feeling pressured to keep up with a group then a guided tour might not be the best option However I really enjoyed hearing the history and seeing everything come to life in front of me That said it is impossible to take everything in especially since guided tours run on a schedule and are timesensitive
