Avoid the crowds on this peaceful afternoon Vatican and Sistine Chapel tour

Excellent
Loved our tour of the Vatican Museums. But what made it special was our tour guide Alessia. She was very informative and very friendly. We couldn’t have had a better guide.

The guide (Marta at our late afternoon visit) was very knowledgeable. It would have been interesting to hear more about the various exhibits. Unfortunately, the general crowdedness (and the sheer size of the Vatican museum exhibits) prevents more in-depth introductions and presentations. A bit pricey for a family of four, but efficient use of the time and minimal queing.

Anna was an excellent guide! Very clear, very educational, answered all of our questions and did not feel rushed at all. This tour was worth every penny and for such an expansive tour I felt like I got to see most of everything.

Amazing tour. Our guide was amazing, very knowledgeable and humorous. The Vatican and Sistine were sensational. Meeting point was easy to find and a few minutes walk from Cipro train station which was easily accessible to get to from Rome Termini. Wear comfortable shoes! Highly recommend.
