Vatican Museums & Sistine Chapel Early Morning or After-Hours Skip-the-Line Tour

The visit was enjoyable, our guide knew a lot and despite everything we saw, she kept our attention throughout the visit. We were left wanting to go back to the museum, there is so much to see and obviously on a general tour like that there was not time for everything. Skipping the lines at the Sistine Chapel and the cathedral is a plus.

Nothing positive except for the entrance which was quick. Entering after closing is a lie, we didn't even have space to see anything it was packed with people a vomitorium. The guide good, but the organization wasted our time waiting for latecomers and I find it unfair to those who were on time. Worst money spent in my life don't believe the story about the entrance after closing is a mountain of lies!!!

Phenomenal! Guido did an impeccable and commendable job. Not only his treatment and kindness, but also his complete and detailed explanations made the 2 hours seem like minutes.

The tour guide Jessica was incredible!! Super enthusiastic, such a nice person and you can tell she is so knowledgeable on the subject. She's excellent!

Ticketing was good and our guide made the experience as he was very knowledgable

We paid double the regular entry price only for our tour guide to spend 45 minutes showing us a plastic sign outside the Vatican and then she rushed us through the museums so we could make it through before closing. But with an "after hours tour" the whole point was to go in after closing time. If we had bought regular tickets and gone on our own at 4pm I would have had a MUCH better time. Our guide completely ruined the experience and to call it an "after hours tour" is false advertising and a huge lie.

The experience was GREAT! I enjoyed the frescoes and the history of the Vatican! I was amazed at the Sistine Chapel!

The guide was knowledgeable, focus and engaging.

Very knowledgeable guide, she was wonderfully telling us plenty of interesting stories about artists and exhibitions.

The very knowledgeable guide and the fact that you can stay in the Sistine Chapel until the closing

Positive: to make the visit with less people around. Negative: the guide didn't show much interest in explaining the wonders we were going to see: on the explanations panel you couldn't see it and she didn't bother to turn on the flashlight.

Our tour guide knew a ton about the Vatican and it made it an enjoyable experience. It was easy to locate the guide and they took great steps to get our entire group through the ticketing and security. It should be noted, this is a WALKING tour - no problem for me but there were some folks in my group (had cane/mobility issues) who seemed surprised by that and weren't able to complete the tour. The walking was about 1.5-2 hours total.

Stefano was engaging, knowledgable, passionate and I found his dry sense of humour funny. It was amazing to be literally the last people on n the chapel. I can only imagine what it must be like to be in the middle of a daytime crowd.

my tour guide was AMAZING (i cant remember the spelling, but it was yazmina?). she was so knowledgable, super energetic, had great interesting stories and facts to share. It was a very rainy day, but that didnt stop us from having an amazing time. She made sure all members of the group were accounted for, enjoying themselves and had plenty of time to experience, ask questions and enjoy the amazing vatican!

The guide was very knowledgeable but there were issues getting started. Not sure if it was because of the crowds. I don't know that it was anything within the guides control but the tour ended up being very riushed and she had tot all really fast to get us through so that we had 5 minutes in the sistene chapel before it closed.

I think everything was rushed and the guide lost track of me twice and finally completely and I was on my own I was expecting more original statues not fake things over all the best was RYAN and the Saint Petersburg Basilica that was awesome answering the pope which I did do the following day. I thought my ticket was supposed to include a guided tour that was not a big deal. The guide was very friendly. and knowledgeable. I would not take that away from her, except for she lost me within the first five minutes I heard her speaking, the German speaking man on the radio and then it cut out later on in the visit she found me and lo and behold she lost me again, and I finished the tour on my own, but I did turn in my headphones and speaker device with my hand so I'm sure you received it back so please do not charge me for it. I did honorable thing and did return it.

Guido, our guide, was absolutely superb. He was knowlegeable, funny and pitched the information he was delivering at just the right level for the group.

It was too long and I was hoping to see St Peter's Basillica.
