V horkém počasí doporučuji dostatek tekutin i nějaké jídlo s sebou. V areálu jsme našli jeden automat s nápoji a keksy a dvě fontány s pitnou vodou a rozhodně pokrývku hlavy. V areálu Fórum Romanum není v slunečném počasí skoro žádný stín.

Choosing Headout made the entry process to the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel very easy, in what could be a bewildering and stressful situation. The meeting point is really close to the entrance but away from the queues and crowds. Getting the entry to the Pantheon as part of the same ticket combo is a great idea too.

Admission went quickly and smoothly. Unfortunately, the signage for the Headout staff isn't very clear, so they're not easy to find. The tour of the Pantheon was very impressive.

Overall, the tour was really wonderful. The best part was the view from the basilica of St. Peter's Square and Rome. The climb up the dome is also quite extraordinary, as it takes you along the inside of the dome.
