I expected the tour to go into art history and detail. Our guide was very polite but only went through the Sistine but no stanze, said goodbye half an hour !!!!earlier. It was booked for 2.5 hours and not just 2 hours

The guide (Marco) was invaluable in helping me discover the museum and the chapel. A great experience. Too bad it's so crowded in the Sistine Chapel, it spoils the magic of the place...

Ticket purchase online was easy and straightforward. Meeting point and time was also clear. Check-in person relatively cool and indifferent. Although Vatican website clearly states no backpacks, tour guide told us this differs day to day but no warning was provided by tour agency. On this day, all backpacks were allowed. The best part of our tour was our tour guide, Tijana, who spoked very good English without the heavy Italian accent. Even though trying to listen to the explanations of the highlights and taking photos was nearly impossible due to the outrageous massive crowds, going on this small size group tour and avoiding the ridiculously long lines is still the way to go.

Roberta was the best! Very knowledgeable and so sweet. Easy meet up and flow throughout the Vatican museum, Sistine Chapel, and St Peter's Bascilia / Square. We came during Easter weekend and was lucky to snag these tickets! 100% worth it to skip the line and have a small group tour :)

The Tour was Great but the amount of Information and pieces of Art is just too much for one tour, so it was rushed the whole way through.

The guide from Carpe Diem tours, Daniele, was very informative regarding the history and art related to the Vatican museum, he has a pleasant and gently amusing manner that I really liked. I learned a great deal and enjoyed the tour very much. The website was easy to use and informative, thanks!

All very well, but you should start demanding the Vatican to reduce the number of visitors per day, since it is impossible with the number of people visiting these places, all this would benefit the tourists and the guides who end up physically and mentally worn out with so many people.

We enjoyed the tour and the easy access it provided. Our guide was average. He has good knowledge but lacks the passion to share it with his audience. So it became tedious and boring.

We booked a 2.5hr tour as did one other couple. When we arrived at our meeting place we found the tour guide was there to do a 5 hr tour. We were told to either ring the company or stay with them and leave the tour early. We had to tour the Sistine Chapel by ourselves, even though we had booked a guided tour. We only had a guide for one hour.

The venue was interesting with some fabulous paintings and sculptures. Headout was one of the easiest sites to make a last minute booking.
