This is my second visit to the Vatican Museums, and our guide, Marinella, was fantastic! Her explanations of the art and history all around us made us appreciate the beauty of the museums ten times more! A special shout-out to Marinella, who even got the kids excited—there were several in the group—and kept them curious and engaged throughout the tour (after two and a half hours of the guided tour, they wanted to explore the remaining areas just as she had recommended!) The skip-the-line option included with the guided tour was convenient, and as always, everything was super organized and punctual!

Actually, to begin with the tour guide Gabriella, she explained all essential information and events about vatican history and provided different and special perspective by pointing out details, illustrations and stories of sculptures, arts, and artist Michalengo which is master of Renaissance period in Europe. She also highlighted dome in the Pantheon and Florence which affects the shape of Vatican City as well. She is good teacher and flawless tour guide.

It was an experience to have once-in-a-lifetime, in spite of the crowds and frenzy, we were happy to have seen the Vatican museums and the Sistine Chapel. The guide Elizabeth was also very proficient and kind. The only thing was, we wished we could have spent more time admiring the various rooms instead of being driven like lambs. In this manner, the individual non-group customers probably had an advantage/

Our guide was excellent and we had enough time to enjoy the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel. He showed us pictures of the important paintings we were about to see in the Sistine Chapel which really helped to understand what we were seeing once we entered the Chapel. He managed the logistics well.

Our tour guide Jessica was amazing. An archeologist by trainng she provided excllent insight. We had small children with us and she could not have been nicer. Additionally we had bit of a hiccup at the start as we had the wrong time and they made sure it was all ironed out. Would highly recommend
    • Wander the marble halls of the Vatican Museum with statues, onto Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel, where a painted ceiling with biblical figures greets you.

    • Delve into paintings like the artist Raphael's "School of Athens" with enrobed gods, and Michelangelo's life-like La Pieta with Mary cradling baby Jesus.

    • Get a tour of Rome’s eerie underground catacombs and learn how they were places of worship for the first Christians.

    • Listen to your guide narrate the history of the dark, 2000-year-old skull-filled tunnels and choose from 5 languages.

    • Fun fact: Even Roman pets were buried in the catacombs, hinting at a deeper bond between them and their owners!
