Excellent

This is a unique tour, it was sensational being only a few to wander through the Vatican museums with the Key Masters unlocking doors then turning on the lights to witness their unsurpassed glory without the crowds. Worth every cent and highly recommended!

It would have been nice to sit down on the benches in the Sistine Chapel to look at the frescoes while the guide talked.

It was so wonderful to see the Vatican Museums without all the crowds. Being the only people in there and helping unlock the doors was an awesome experience.
