Excellent

This tour was excellent! We had a total of 20 people that were broken down into 2 groups, each with a guide. Walking thru the empty halls and rooms was perfect as I was able to take in the whole feel/experience versus bumping into people. Our guide, Rose was knowledgeable and provided just enough info without coming across as being in a boring history class. Rose was engaging with the group.

Great

Wonderful experience. The early admittance, ability to unlock a Vatican door, access to areas off limits to the regular public and the small group is great.

Excellent

Excellent opportunity to go before the public and beat the crowds. Felt a bit rushed in some spots and not everyone got to open a door since there was 2 tour groups for a total of about 35 people. A bit overpriced in my opinion since we were a family of 4, but to sit in the Sistine Chapel and admire the artwork was amazing with no crowds. Would definitely book again!
