Wonderful tour fantastic guide terrible conditions in the museum

Sabrina was an incredible guide Her knowledge was outstanding and she did an excellent job explaining everything She is a 5 star guide Our reason for the 4 star rating is 1 We had upgraded our tour to small group in this case and unfortunately this meant 10 people making it impossible to go at the speed our children needed 2 The Vatican museums are beautiful but insanely hot unairconditioned for 90 and shouldertoshoulder busy There is no place to stop and get water and you are not permitted to sit anywhere This makes it really difficult to take any time to appreciate the art and all of us returned home feeling dehydrated and with headache after the tour even through we had brought 1 litre of water per person This had nothing to do with EcoArt or Sabrina

Best way to see the Vatican

Our tour guide Maria was amazing I dont know how she kept the group of 12 people together but she was very professional and made sure no one got separated from our tour The Vatican was extremely crowded but Maria made the experience an enjoyable onedespite how busy it was The tour included The Sistine Chapel and St Peters Basilica which was awe inspiring I highly recommend Skip the Line as not having booked this tour we would have been with the hundreds of people waiting in 90 degree weather for hours just to get in Literally wrapped around the building Book the tour

Great way to get inside

Met at business address and was taken directly to inside the Vatican museum buy English speaking guide Considering the 1000s of people i really can not see a more efficient way of getting in to the Vatican especially when the temp was 40c on the day we visited My advise is not to but a scarf from the street sellers as they are provided outside the basilica where they are required We saw lots of people in short shorts and open shoulders and none of them were refused entry
