Outstanding private tour

Kurt_S, May 2024

Giusi was outstanding! So pleasant and informative the entire tour. Never felt like we were just a number at the end of a line trying to find someone with a flag. Very personable and attentive.

Amazing tour from start to finish.

Professor Jason was a great tour guide, very knowledgeable & made the tour fun too. We would highly recommend Jason & wish him all the best.

Insightful tour

The tour was wonderful and Marchello was very knowledgeable about the artifacts in the museum. We highly recommend this tour and Marchello.

Meh

Stacy_L, Apr 2024

Guide was late, started about 45 minutes late, then through the lines and interior wasn’t much to get to see. Tout also ended early. Guide was nice, but basic info. Have been on several tours this week and this was the least informative, but also given the timing not sure what elder we could have seen. For the price and only chance to see the Vatican in Rome very disappointed.

Lifetime memories - Excellent Tour

Tour guide Maria was FANTASTIC. Maria was bilingual, and enabled to keep our family together on a single tour. Maria quickly queued us through all the checkpoints, and rapidly got us to the areas where more explanations were needed. Maria took her time to explain so much of the museum, sistine ch, and the religious historical known facts surrounding the compound. Maria was excellent, and gave us some tips on where to eat after the lengthy walking tour that morning. We had a blast.... lifetime memories. Thanks so much Maria. Thanks so much

Superb Coloseum Adventure!!

Sarah was superb; excellent. Sarah quickly gathered our small group through the lines, and arranged special transport up and down elevators. Sarah was certain to understand our specific needs, and was flexible for our group’s needs. We were so satisfied with our first visit to Rome & Coloseum. A fantastic adventure, and highly recommend Viator booking!!! We will use again

Vatican private tour exceeded our expectations!

RobertClayton_R, Nov 2023

My wife and I toured the whole campus with Kiera (not sure of the spelling). She was an absolute wealth of knowledge! I feel bad because we had to cut the tour short to make our Coliseum tour, even though we had already gone over out Vatican tour time. She has been doing this for 20 years and you can tell. She knows all the other tour guides who often gave her first crack at particular sights. She even knew all the security guards. She upheld the rules and etiquette of viewing the chapel which really showed her respect for the sacred place. Definitely worth a private tour with her and I would highly recommend anyone to her.

Fantastic Tour!

FloydC_A, Jun 2023

We had a wonderful guide, Margarite. What a wonderful wealth of knowledge that she is so willing to share. This was a very special tour for us. We learned things we had not known before and some really cool things on perspective inside the museum. I hope to one day to come back and be able to stay longer. Thank you, Tonja & David

A great tour well worth the money

Lenora_D, Mar 2023

Our guide was fantastic she was very knowledgeable and interested in the things she described. She was very considerate of my mother who walked very slowly and found stairs challenging she gave us plenty of time to look.

Great knowledgeable guide

lauren_k, Oct 2022

Our guide was great! He was very knowledgeable and kind and funny! It was hard to find them at first from our location getting off the cruise ship. But once we did, it was well worth it!!! An intimate group of 4 private tour

Our guide Silvio was the...

DERICK_M, Sep 2022

Our guide Silvio was the absolute bed. He taught us so much. We would definitely do it again and I highly recommend Viators

Exactly what we wanted

Maura_Y, Sep 2022

Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. He did a great job taking us through the Vatican and providing us with interesting information. He was also very accommodating to my mother’s difficulty managing all the steps. It was a very streamlined tour bypassing the long lines and as much of the crowds as possible-exactly what we wanted!

The tour guide was excellent

Mitch_M, Jul 2022

The tour guide was excellent. She made our day special. I highly recommend this tour. She was very informative.
