Valentine's Day in Rome

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

Buying tickets through Hedout is your best bet. The lines to get into the museum are huge, and it’s all very chaotic. It’s important to arrive 20 minutes before your scheduled time. If you’re visiting with family, plan to arrive 30 minutes early.

A very interesting tour, for interesting guidance and interesting personal views of the guide. For every recommendation.

It was very busy because of Easter weekend, but my guide took it in stride and extended the tour length so we got the full experience. I saw many things that someone walking around alone wouldn't think to look at, and that enhanced the experience.

We had a fantastic guided tour of St. Peter’s Basilica today. Even while we were waiting in line, we learned so much interesting information that the wait seemed to fly by. There is so much to see inside the basilica that it’s almost impossible to take it all in without a guide. We would book this tour again in a heartbeat and highly recommend it.

Everything was excellent—from the ticket arrangements to the explanations and exhibits. Thanks to our guide, Marcia

Just a short train ride from Rome's Termini station, Castel Gondolfo & the quaint village surrounding it is worth the time. The Castel is filled with history and expertly presented. The grounds are spectacular. Several lovely shops, artisans & restaurants available to round out you time there.

I'm glad I booked through Headout. The guide was great and professional—he led us past the lines and helped us navigate the crowds inside the Vatican Museum! Highly recommended!
