the skip the line tickets helped us get in in about 15-20 minutes, including the security check, which made everything a pleasant experience. the whole tour we did, a little rushed, took about 2.5 hours. we initially wanted to stay longer in certain museums and skip others, but we didn't know that to get to the Sistine Chapel for example, you have to go through all the museums, because you enter from one to the other, but somehow at the end of the day this was a good thing, because we saw (I think) everything. inside it wasn't overly crowded, except for the moments when we suddenly met 2-3 groups. we ate at the museum restaurant and the food was good and at an ok price. it was a superb museum and made our day wonderful

Elizabeth our tour guide was amazing, so knowledgeable and passionate. The tour package was well worth it especially when getting to the Colosseum which was chaotic. We did need ID which so far was the only time we did but photos of ID was sufficient.

I had an amazing experience visiting Pompeii with Headout! The entry process was smooth and hassle-free, which made the start of the trip very enjoyable. Exploring Pompeii was absolutely fascinating — walking through the ancient streets and seeing the preserved ruins felt like stepping back in time. The organization was great, and everything went exactly as expected. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a memorable and well-organized visit. Thank you for such a seamless experience!

I booked a 48-hour pass, which was perfect for me! My favorite spot was Castel Sant'Angelo in Vatican City. I was lucky enough to stay at a hotel right next to the Basilica of Santa Maria Maggiore, and there was also a bus stop right there. I also found my way to the Pantheon, thanks to the bus ride.
