Whilst the tour guide Rudi was great the whole thing is too rushed and just way too many people in the place. You really feel like cattle being moved around and it really makes the experience disappointing
Breathtaking experience
Laura_G, Oct 2023
The place is breathtaking! The Vatican museums and chapel sixtine wonderful. The guide was very nice . The only issue is that it was hard to hear through the head phone set , which are provided by the Vatican so is more on their side to check that.
A blur.

Tour guide spent too much time telling us stories about the history of how the Vatican became to be and once inside he was going quite too fast. We also didn’t get to see the front of the Vatican. My wife and I are thinking of doing it all over again, but on our own.
EXCELLENT PLACE TO STAY

great to skip the line and see this amazing place
well worth paying the little extra cost especially in the hot humid weather
Terrible and awful tour and guide
Kateryna_K, Sep 2023
It was a terrible tour. First of all, I note that the guide does not speak English at all - the story is just a set of words, from which it is very difficult to catch any essence, since the pronunciation is so ear-splitting that the meaning of the words is simply lost. In general, it's just buying up tickets and then reselling them four times more expensive under the sauce of a guided tour. If you, like us, buy tickets at the last minute, just arrange to go on your own or take an audio guide, because he at least speaks English
