Tour guide was very knowledgeable and great about keeping the tour moving through the exhibits and making sure we caught the pieces that were truly significant. She was great at explaining the exhibits and their meanings. There were a few thousand people flowing through the museum, but I never felt lost in the madness. It would have been great to stay and explore more after the tour was over but our time, my son 's and mine, was already tight.

We booked the skip the line guided tour and Marta was our guide. She was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly and welcoming. There is so much to see at the Vatican, it is impossible to do it all in one day. I would also recommend climbing the top of St Peters Basilica (this is an extra charge of 10 euros if you don't mind climbing the 500+ steps or 15 euros if you want to get the lift and cut out the first 200 steps. )

Una visita guiada que fue de provecho y deleite. La Dama que nos acompañó: culta, preparada, amenísima, impecable en el control del tiempo para evitar agobios con tanto por ver; y en un grato idioma español con velado y musical acento italiano ¡Bravo! La gestión por Headout, su app y los email: excelentes, eficaces y eficientes. ¡Gracias por ser los mejores! ¡Repetiremos!

Definitely worth booking ahead! I saved so much time by skipping a ticket line that looked more than 100 people long. Our guide was knowledgeable and shared fascinating details about the history of the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel. The tour was both entertaining and educational. I highly recommend it!

It was a very well organized guided tour. Antonella was a very knowledgeable guide. The only thing which was a bit disappointing was the radio (microphone) which cracked all the time.

I booked the guided tour for the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel through Headout, and everything went perfectly. The meeting point was easy to find, and the staff was very welcoming. The biggest advantage was the Skip-the-Line access — the regular queues outside were massive, but we got inside very quickly.Our local guide was exceptional: passionate, fluent, and full of engaging stories about the history behind the Gallery of Maps and the Belvedere Courtyard. The tour concluded in the spectacular Sistine Chapel, where the explanations we received beforehand helped us truly appreciate Michelangelo's genius. I highly recommend Headout for a stress-free visit to the Vatican!

Esperienza fantastica e da fare almeno una volta nella vita. Il biglietto del tour ti permette di saltare la fila ed accedere ai musei rapidamente. La ns guida, Susanna, preparatissima, ci ha fatto appassionare ancora di più a tutta la bellezza vista all' interno dei musei Vaticani oltre ad averci spiegato benissimo la cappella Sistina. La cappella Sistina lascia senza fiato, è una meraviglia. Consiglio vivamente

Es war sehr beeindruckend. Wir freuten uns über den schnellen Einlass. Die Führung war sehr reizend, auch wenn man ihr Englisch nicht immer voll verstand. Ich rate allen sich nach der Führung noch viel Zeit für eigene Entdeckungen zu nehmen, dass hatten wir nicht. Ansonsten ist es gut über die App zu buchen, man hat alles gut im Überblick.
