С билетами на смартфоне все получилось, и очереди на входе не было. Немного тесновато на охране, но в остальном все нормально. В музее было достаточно места, но в Сикстинской капелле было очень много людей. Хорошо, что мы были здесь не в высокий сезон.
Мы провели в музеях более четырех часов, осмотрев все - от Пинакотеки до Сикстинской капеллы. Однако наибольшее впечатление на нас произвела "Афинская школа" Рафаэля. Мы оценили меньшее количество посетителей.
В нем собраны великолепные произведения искусства. Покупать билеты онлайн очень удобно, потому что это сэкономило много времени, не нужно стоять в очереди, чтобы попасть в музей
Действительно великолепная архитектура....... Единственным минусом для меня было то, что здесь было очень, очень много народу.
Место впечатляет, но немного меньше, чем я себе представляю. Было не слишком много народу. Пропускной билет, на мой взгляд, был лишним. В некоторых местах без света трудно читать информацию, но в целом впечатление очень впечатляющее, и это важно сделать, как только вы приедете в Рим.
Главной причиной визита была Сикстинская капелла. Чтобы добраться до нее, пришлось совершить множество "объездов". Однако с билетом все сложилось как нельзя лучше.
Мы занимались самостоятельно. Мы купили аудиогид, который объяснил все о номере, выставленном с помощью символа наушников.
Да, но Сикстинская капелла была закрыта для публики, хотя наши билеты давали нам доступ туда. Нас могли бы предупредить заранее!
удивительный музей, уникальный!!!! Однако жаль, что в музее нет записанных экскурсий на греческом языке, хотя греки посещают музей каждый день!!!!.
Многие экспонаты были плохо переведены на английский или не переведены вовсе, и не смогли дать нам представления. Из-за большого количества людей должно быть больше "свободного пространства" для передвижения, а не просто определенный маршрут. Многие люди хотели пропустить некоторые части, но не смогли, и поэтому местами было более тесно. Объяснения могли бы быть более историческими, потому что многим людям не нужны подробности, но они хотят узнать об истории, изображенной на картинке!
Мы были поражены всей древней информацией об ацтеках и мини-интересными предметами до нашей эры. Все картины, гобелены и потолочные фрески были потрясающими.
Идеальное время и день, чтобы избежать чрезмерной очереди, система перепрыгивания очереди работала отлично
Очень хороший опыт, много всего интересного, и вы легко можете провести более 3 часов, созерцая все вокруг.
Посещение прошло хорошо, но у меня возникли проблемы с получением билета! Мне пришлось скачать приложение! Тогда я не понимаю, почему цена была 40 евро, когда цена за вход в музеи Ватикана составляет 25 евро. Спасибо
Я добрался до места встречи вовремя, из-за задержки рейса, но мне повезло, группа еще не улетела: меня проводил до входа в Музеи Ватикана (всего 5 минут) очень любезный и дружелюбный человек, и мы сразу же вошли внутрь. Мой визит был без гида, но у меня были все необходимые инструкции о том, как управлять входом. Превосходный опыт
Не смогли посетить музей. Пришли на место встречи, а в ресторане все время говорили, что придет гид. Никто так и не появился. Из приобретенного комбинированного билета удалось посетить только Сикстинскую капеллу.
Нам не пришлось ждать, мы сразу вошли внутрь, что было замечательно, нас не беспокоили толпы людей, и это прекрасное место. Мы не смогли увидеть все.
Процесс поступления был хаотичным, а сотрудники службы поддержки давали противоречивые советы. Мы не нашли для себя гида. Вместо этого мы бродили по городу самостоятельно, используя аудиогид, и это было незабываемо.
Забронировав билет заранее, нам не пришлось стоять в очереди в музей! За 2 минуты мы оказались внутри. Музей и Сикстинская капелла впечатляют. Мы получили огромное удовольствие от всего увиденного!
Мы нашли время, когда здесь было немноголюдно. Маршрут хорошо обозначен. Отличное наблюдение за художественным наследием. Мы погрузились в вечные произведения. Мы также смогли сделать небольшую паузу, чтобы помедитировать над ними.
Наш гид был чрезвычайно осведомлен и очень мил. Нам понравилось, что здесь было не так много народу, как обычно. Мы бы хотели, чтобы нам не приходилось спешить по всему музею, но мы прекрасно понимаем, что на это не хватает времени.
Все было великолепно, охранники были очень полезны, милы😁, они сделали мой визит по-настоящему незабываемым, и я захочу вернуться.
Мы посетили Ватикан без гида, но даже это было очень приятно. Мы были очарованы всем богатством коллекции, чудесным искусством и всем, что очень хорошо сохранилось.
Избегайте очередей, насчет гида ничего не могу сказать, потому что он ушел за дверь, возможно, было бы лучше, если бы гид оставался на время посещения.
Это был хороший опыт. Однако предоставленная карта была не самой лучшей. Я видел материалы, предоставленные другими агентствами, и они были лучше. Кроме того, они получили дополнительную информацию и советы. Например, были бы полезны предложения посетить другие выставки, такие как автомобильный зал Ватикана. Я имею в виду, что немного больше взаимодействия с покупателями очень помогло бы.

Bring comfortable shoes. Bring a scarf to cover your shoulders in the church. Remember to buy a bus ticket before entering the bus to the Vatican.

I went to Clementina restaurant. It was great and not filled with tourists. Also the prices were fair. I had cacio e pepe, really good.

Такой замечательный тур по Ватикану. Замечательный гид, Козимо, очень знающий и в то же время увлекательный. Он добавил много впечатлений, и я бы очень рекомендовал его.
Марко, наш франкоговорящий гид, провел для нас замечательную экскурсию с хорошо проработанными комментариями и всегда был готов выслушать вопросы своей группы.
Экскурсия была полна истории и очень хороша. Единственное, мы не попали на экскурсию в Базилику. Определенно, базилика - замечательное место.
Все. Все, что касается экскурсии, было первоклассным. Лаура из City Wonders EUR была лучшим гидом. Она так хорошо все объясняла, а ее английский просто фантастический. Ее знания о Ватикане и обо всем, что он может предложить, просто потрясающие. Мы очень рады, что приняли решение заказать эту экскурсию.
Гид у нас был замечательный, очень интересный, знающий и терпеливо отвечающий на все наши вопросы.
лучшее решение поехать с экскурсией в ватикан. наш гид маурицио (если я правильно расслышал), хорошо все объяснял и всегда помнил, чтобы не оставить ни одного человека в нашей группе позади. определенно рекомендую! Мы поехали в начале декабря, и народу было еще достаточно, наш гид сказал, что в это время низкий сезон и народу не так много.
Мы хотели бы поблагодарить Дарио от всего сердца, из-за проблем с поездом Frecciarossa мы прибыли на три часа позже, он сразу же пересадил нас на другую группу, так что мы смогли увидеть музеи Ватикана. мы обязательно вернемся, чтобы снова воспользоваться услугами Headout. увидимся в следующий раз.
Это был лучший выбор для нашей поездки, экскурсия была идеальной! Гид был великолепен, и мы даже смогли увидеть мессу в базилике!
У нас был невероятно знающий и любящий искусство гид. Я получил хороший опыт и значительно расширил свои знания. Купить билет было легко.
Вчера, 4 декабря, мы участвовали в экскурсии с Альбой по Ватиканскому музею и Сикстинской капелле. Это была очень познавательная экскурсия. Видно было, что Альба очень хорошо осведомлена и может объяснить особые аспекты. Для нас особым событием стало посещение гобелена и прилегающего к нему зала с итальянскими пейзажами со всей Италии. Лично мы, возможно, заменили бы зал со скульптурами животных на углубленное знакомство с современной частью Ватиканского музея. Другими словами, 20-го века. Мы безоговорочно рекомендуем "Альбу". Организация также была очень хорошей.
Очень понравилась наш гид Натлиана (думаю, это правильное написание). Место завораживает, но она действительно добавила впечатлений.
Женщина, которая проводила экскурсию, Елена, прекрасно информировала нас о многих исторических особенностях во время экскурсии. Она дала нам возможность осмотреться и изучить комнату, в которой мы находились, что было замечательно, так как моя семья хотела сделать как можно больше фотографий. В целом, экскурсия была замечательной.
Наш гид Фабрицио был с историческим образованием, местный парень, который получил свои знания непосредственно в Ватикане во время учебы. Очень интересные факты, которые он рассказывал, не были известны моему другу, который уже дважды посещал Ватикан. Поэтому я очень ценю его экскурсию и его самого как веселого интересного и умного гида. О туре было все вовремя, хорошо организовано, и в рамках заявленного тура, как на сайте. Очень рекомендую
Наш гид Рита провела нас мимо длинных очередей и прямо ко входу. Она была очень осведомлена и показала нам больше, чем мы увидели бы сами.
Четверо из нас, "впервые побывавших" в Риме, заказали этот тур по музеям Ватикана, Сикстинской капелле и базилике Святого Петра 2 недели назад. Наш гид был потрясающим! Я не могу вспомнить ее имя (потому что я ужасно разбираюсь в именах), но она родилась в Америке и жила в Италии 18 лет или около того. Она была чрезвычайно осведомлена, она знала так много об искусстве и маленьких нюансах о каждом художнике. У нее были длинные темные волосы и желтое перо! Она была великолепна! Мы выбрали идеальный сезон для посещения Рима... толпы людей не было, погода была идеальной, и даже несмотря на то, что они готовятся к юбилею, я не чувствовал, что мы что-то пропустили! Я определенно буду заказывать билеты у Headout снова! Их было очень легко найти, они были дружелюбны и хорошо осведомлены! Цены также были отличными! Чао до следующего визита!!!
Наш гид была великолепна. Она хорошо общалась с каждым из членов нашей группы и была очень терпелива с нами. Она была невероятно информативна и в то же время привлекала наше внимание и заставляла нас смеяться! В целом было очень весело и радостно!
Гид был хорошо подготовлен, с большим количеством информации, но это действительно слишком дорого для того, что это.... В конце концов, вы можете провести экскурсию самостоятельно, это просто.
Это был очень интересный опыт, очень профессиональный гид погрузил нас в историю Ватикана и его замечательных произведений.
Помимо потрясающих достопримечательностей, Клаудия, наш гид, хорошо владеющая английским языком, сделала нашу экскурсию в музей Ватикана и Сикстинскую капеллу незабываемой и захватывающей.
История создания произведений искусства была подробно описана, что позволило нам глубже понять художников и их работы.
Гид Фернинандо был великолепен! Очень дружелюбный и отлично объясняет, особенно хороший гид для интерпретации Сикстинской капеллы.
Найти место встречи было несложно, была небольшая задержка в 5 минут (но было очень тихо), мы были относительно небольшой группой, и это очень помогло в общении с гидом, в том числе потому, что гид был очень добрым, отзывчивым и дружелюбным и показал хороший уровень знаний по представленным темам.
Несмотря на отсутствие клиентов, агентство не отказалось от посещения и провело для нас индивидуальную экскурсию. Очень профессионально. Большое спасибо Джонатану
Гид "Фред" был таким знающим и интересным. Темп был как раз подходящим для меня (70 лет), а оборудование было простым в использовании.
Кристина была очень милой и информативной. Она знала все об искусстве и вела экскурсию в хорошем темпе. Нам с дочерью понравилась каждая минута! Спасибо!

Мы видели длинные очереди и были рады, что нам не пришлось стоять в них. Наш гид смог провести нас мимо всех очередей, и это было здорово. Нам также понравился наш гид. Она была очень информативна и отлично провела нас через толпу.

Гид Фернинандо был великолепен! Очень дружелюбный и отлично объясняет, особенно хороший гид для интерпретации Сикстинской капеллы.
Мы увидели основные моменты, но гид, казалось, была больше сосредоточена на том, чтобы не потерять аудиофрагменты, чем на предоставлении информации. Она была не очень увлекательной
Мы хотели бы поблагодарить нашего гида Яна за прекрасное время, проведенное с ней. Благодаря его увлеченности этот визит был самым запоминающимся, и мы сохраним о нем очень хорошие воспоминания. Малика
Наш дружелюбный гид была очень знающей и вежливой. Она уделила время объяснению деталей и сделала экскурсию интересной. Отличное место для посещения!
Невероятные впечатления не только от музея Ватикана как такового, но и от экскурсии с Паолой Лоччи. Если у вас будет возможность попасть к ней на экскурсию, вы узнаете много нового об истории искусства, Ватикане, симбологии..... Большое спасибо за все.
Клаудия была приятной и чрезвычайно, я имею в виду чрезвычайно осведомленной. Гораздо проще, когда гид объясняет все академические и исторические вещи, чем бродить по музею, гуглить все подряд и упускать все остальные смыслы экспонатов. Клаудия изучала экспонаты и историю, и это определенно проявилось в ее энтузиазме и качестве презентации. Единственное, что я бы посоветовала, - это делать перерывы, так как экскурсия была насыщенной и напряженной. Сикстинская капелла огромна и оставила нас в полной тишине, там не было места, чтобы отдохнуть и погрузиться в ее красоту. В целом мы очень рады, что взяли этот тур, и очень рекомендуем его. И браво Клаудии!
Гид Джессика была невероятна! Супер энтузиаст, такой приятный человек, и вы можете сказать, что она так хорошо разбирается в теме. Она превосходна!
Такой богатый музей нельзя посетить в одиночку. Экскурсия с гидом - обязательное условие, если вы хотите познакомиться с богатством хранящегося здесь наследия. Наш гид Валерия была особенным человеком, который знал, как дать нам правильные направления и достаточно информации, чтобы насладиться чудесами, которые мы увидели. Никаких проблем на входе и очень быстрые очереди.
Гид предоставил очень важную информацию. У меня было бы немного больше времени для посещения музея Ватикана. Покупка прошла быстро и без проблем
Мы ездили в ноябре, поэтому толпа была меньше, чем обычно, но все равно очень многолюдно! Так хорошо, что мы забронировали Сикстинскую капеллу + Ватиканский музей + Базилику Святого Петра вместе! Благодаря этому мы смогли пропустить все очереди с гидом! Бронирование тура гораздо более впечатляющее, чем аудиогид! Гиды так увлеченно и подробно рассказывают!
С такими профессионалами, как Лаура в Колизее и Франческа в Ватикане, опыт был идеальным. Дружелюбные, добрые, с большим количеством информации в приятной и динамичной манере. Большое спасибо им обеим.
Гид была очень информативна, а ее контакты с сотрудниками музея повысили нашу признательность за экскурсию по закулисью.
Этот тур - отличный выбор! Гид Марко был знатоком, энтузиастом, добрым и внимательным к каждому. Он сделал тур по Ватикану действительно замечательным! Очень рекомендую. Пропустить длинные очереди с этим туром - бесценно.
Четкие указания места встречи. Легко найти гида. Отличная экскурсия с хорошим англоговорящим гидом (Роберта). Вовремя начали и закончили.
Невероятный опыт под руководством Кармело, музеи огромны, и вы видите только работы на пути к Сикстинской капелле - это реальность, вы не можете посетить больше. Но гид объясняет вам это с самого начала, и вы получаете огромное удовольствие, и если вы хотите остаться дольше, вы можете это сделать. Однако вы упускаете возможность быстро попасть в базилику Святого Петра и насладиться ею так, как вам нравится. Это потрясающе, и спасибо Кармело за объяснения и историю, а также за смех.
Моя жена хотела приехать в Рим на свой день рождения и попрактиковаться в итальянском языке. В предыдущей поездке 40 лет назад она была на публичной аудиенции папы, но не посещала Ватиканский музей и Сикстинскую капеллу. От них просто захватывало дух, и это был потрясающий опыт, который еще больше усилился благодаря нашему замечательному гиду Марко из Maya Tours. Он был так хорошо осведомлен и увлечен всем, что сделало весь визит намного более приятным. Моя жена не была готова к раннему старту из-за англоязычного гида, поэтому экскурсия была на французском, которым она владеет свободно! Я мог следить за многим из того, что он говорил, но Марко также говорил по-английски, который он иногда использовал для меня. Это очень помогло. Нас было всего 9 человек в группе, что было идеальным количеством. Просто чудесный день закончился в базилике Святого Петра.
Стоимость билета была добавлена для того, чтобы два парня, которые едва говорили с нами, проводили нас в здание, а затем оставили нас с одним из официальных гидов Ватикана. Мы могли бы просто заплатить за это сами за гораздо меньшие деньги. Это было похоже на мошенничество.
Спасибо Марку за этот необычный визит! По-настоящему увлекательный, нежный тур. Это был наш лучший визит во время нашего пребывания в Риме 🙏🏼
Оба гида были великолепны! Они были знающими, дружелюбными, терпеливыми и сделали все посещения необычными благодаря своим знаниям и проницательности.
Галина была великолепна! Она рассказывала очень увлеченно и заинтересованно. Экскурсия была очень интересной, несмотря на большое количество посетителей, ей удалось обогатить нашу группу множеством знаний.
Экскурсия для небольшой группы до 15 человек, что позволяет больше общаться и уделять внимание.

Необыкновенный гид, который превратил формальный визит в увлекательную историю. Французский язык Марка был безупречен.
Наш гид Ольга была великолепна. Мы оценили ее энтузиазм, страсть и знания о музеях Ватикана, Сикстинской капелле и базилике Святого Петра. Во время части посещения было очень многолюдно, но Ольге удалось сориентировать нас и распределить по группам, так что мы смогли насладиться каждой изюминкой и оценить красоту и историю. Ольга общалась с каждым из нас на протяжении всей экскурсии, что сделало ее очень индивидуальной. Спасибо!
Это было познавательно. Без гида я бы потерялся. Мне понравился Ватикан. Не забудьте отправить письмо с почты Ватикана, когда гид закончит работу.
Ватикан - это место, которое стоит увидеть. Гид был хорошим, он поделился своими знаниями о Ватикане и Сикстинской капелле, пока мы проводили экскурсию. Он четко говорил по-французски, рассказывая нам, как много значат для него эти экскурсии на французском языке.
Guide (Jaber) was an absolute joy, so knowledgeable, engaging, kind and well organised. He really bought the Vatican to life with so much care, passion and enthusiasm. He had countless stories and explanations to share and really understood, appreciated and respected his subject matter. We thoroughly enjoyed having him as our guide.
We waren met een kleine groep van 8 personen en we hebben niet in de lange rijen gestaan. Dit was dus zeer aangenaam. Onze gids Sylvia was in 1 woord geweldig. Ze nam ons mee terug in de tijd en vertelde ons over de belangrijkste zaken uit de rijke geschiedenis. De tour was in het Engels en zeer goed te volgen middels het oordopje.
The tour guide made the visit more enjoyable, the deep level of information along with her lively character, Elle ensured that we were engaged and entertained all the time which was a great experience.
In general it was good. Only thing that could be done better is that the tour should be longer in the museum in order to see all of the rooms.
Very crowded but our guide and tickets kept us moving with little or no waiting....He was super informative, fun, wonderful to listen to and ask questions. We aren't Catholic, but we are believers and are so thrilled to have visited the Vatican. May God continue to bless the Vatican and all those who visit!
We were in Italy for a wedding, and it was my wife’s first trip to Italy. For obvious reasons, I wanted her to see the Vatican. As an Architect for more than 3 decades, I was really looking forward to walking the Vatican with her. Our tour guide was Debora Diego, and she was amazing on so many levels. She knew her details, she choreographed the tour with precision. She knew every security guard, and was able to elevate our tour to a true VIP level. She advised us what to look for, what to take pictures of, and what to consider. Even after the tour was over, she advised us what to do and see, while we were on our own. Not only was she a highly trained tour guide, she held a level of professionalism that is hard to put into words. I have many favorite memories of the trip; however, spending time with Debora was a true highlight. Thank you for making our experience exceptional.
Sarah was amazing. Very informative and easy to enjoy. My whole family thought she was amazing. Great English. Knew her stuff. Enjoys her work. Took us throughout the Vatican and showed us everything. Great excursion.
Notre guide Marco Tritto, qui parlait français a fait des exposés clairs et très explicites. Très agréable, il a su capter toute notre attention sur la splendeur de l'art du Vatican et sur son histoire. Nous recommanderons tout particulièrement l'organisme Maya Tours a tous nos amis et connaissances.
Goede gids die ons met veel enthousiasme begeleidde . Wij vonden de tour iets te lang . Misschien omdat het te warm was ... heel veel informatie en indrukken en toch ook wel veel volk om rustig alles te bekijken .
Our experience was the best of our lives, especially the experience from our guide, she was polite clear whit her message, Thank you for your service Samuel Orrego
Excellent professional tour Easily found meeting point skip the line small group was perfect for us Tour guy so knowledgeable ☺️
Our guide, Stephan was fantastic. His knowledge of Art and Art History greatly enhanced our experience. Fantastic!! Thank you!
Our tour guide was fabulous! Easy to understand, well informed. He was able to answer questions and was very pleasant! He also was able to navigate us through the big crowds...all of this made the tour a very memorable one! Thank you!
Nous avons passé une merveilleuse visite en compagnie de Marco notre guide Il nous a captivé l organisatiion etait parfaite
Marc est un guide agréable, érudit et bon communicant. Il a su nous faire découvrir le musée de Vatican, la Chapelle Sixtine et la basilique Saint Pierre en s'adaptant à la composition du groupe et a été bienveillant et patient avec nos enfants en bas âge (6, 7 et 10 ans).
The meeting point was easy to find an well organised. Our guides English was excellent and she was very attentive. The booking allowed us to skip the very very long queues.
We had amazing guide, who gave us a lot of information. It was my third visit in Vatican Museums and I still managed to learn something more.

Наше посещение Колизея стало поистине незабываемым событием, и во многом мы обязаны этому нашему гиду Розарио. Благодаря ее знаниям и страсти к истории каждая деталь Флавианского амфитеатра и богатой истории Рима ожила уникальным образом. Она перенесла нас в прошлое благодаря своим ясным и увлекательным объяснениям, что позволило нам еще больше оценить великолепие этого культового места. Мы настоятельно рекомендуем этот тур всем, кто хочет получить полный и насыщенный опыт. Это был не просто визит, это был урок истории и культуры, и нам не терпится вернуться и открыть для себя еще больше этого удивительного города!
Это был первый раз, когда мы взяли экскурсию с гидом, и благодаря нашему гиду Мириам мы были в восторге и хотим повторить. Мы обязательно вернемся в Рим с моими детьми и снова закажем у них экскурсию и, надеюсь, вернемся к Мириам.
Гиды были превосходны Гид по Колизею Андрада и гид по Ватикану Дебра были великолепны. Я даю 5 /5 им обоим. На экскурсии по Ватикану не было наушников. Это было некомфортно. Экскурсия в Колизей была с наушниками, и было легко понять нашего гида.
Мы хотели бы поблагодарить Дарио от всего сердца, из-за проблем с поездом Frecciarossa мы прибыли на три часа позже, он сразу же пересадил нас на другую группу, так что мы смогли увидеть музеи Ватикана. мы обязательно вернемся, чтобы снова воспользоваться услугами Headout. увидимся в следующий раз.
Мы начали с Древнего форума, затем отправились на Палатинские холмы и закончили в Колизее! Наш гид Джордж рассказывал нам о каждой мелочи. Детали, которые мы не смогли бы найти без труда. А поскольку я люблю историю, я узнал много нового! Я бы рекомендовала это в любое время! Возьмите экскурсию и насладитесь прогулкой по Древнему Риму и его истории!
У нас был замечательный гид, Мария, которая дала нам много информации и подробностей о том, что мы видели и переживали. Она была понятна и увлекательна. В то время, когда мы отправились в поездку, толпы людей не было, и наша группа была относительно небольшой. Инструкции по встрече были четкими, а аудиозапись работала хорошо.
У нас был гид, который пришел вовремя в оговоренное время и точку. Гид умел увлеченно рассказывать и сумел хорошо увлечь участников экскурсии.
Вчера, 4 декабря, мы участвовали в экскурсии с Альбой по Ватиканскому музею и Сикстинской капелле. Это была очень познавательная экскурсия. Видно было, что Альба очень хорошо осведомлена и может объяснить особые аспекты. Для нас особым событием стало посещение гобелена и прилегающего к нему зала с итальянскими пейзажами со всей Италии. Лично мы, возможно, заменили бы зал со скульптурами животных на углубленное знакомство с современной частью Ватиканского музея. Другими словами, 20-го века. Мы безоговорочно рекомендуем "Альбу". Организация также была очень хорошей.
Экскурсия приятная, и вы узнаете все или почти все, что попадается на глаза. Я рекомендую совершить этот тур с гидом, чтобы получить максимум впечатлений и понять контекст многих вещей, это определенно хорошо потраченные деньги.
Мне очень понравилась вся информация, которую они нам предоставили, время, проведенное там, пролетело очень быстро, потому что все было очень интересно. В качестве улучшения, они могли бы дать нам наушники лучшего качества, потому что звук был очень плохим, а у меня было только одно ухо.
Наш гид Фабрицио был с историческим образованием, местный парень, который получил свои знания непосредственно в Ватикане во время учебы. Очень интересные факты, которые он рассказывал, не были известны моему другу, который уже дважды посещал Ватикан. Поэтому я очень ценю его экскурсию и его самого как веселого интересного и умного гида. О туре было все вовремя, хорошо организовано, и в рамках заявленного тура, как на сайте. Очень рекомендую
Гид Мириам была великолепна, ясна, лаконична и, самое главное, очень увлекательна и весела, мы бы повторили экскурсию без колебаний, зная, что это именно она.
Мне очень понравилось посещать это место, но экскурсия показалась торопливой. Нам не дали много времени, чтобы вникнуть во все аспекты того, о чем рассказывал гид, и сделать фотографии.
Помимо потрясающих достопримечательностей, Клаудия, наш гид, хорошо владеющая английским языком, сделала нашу экскурсию в музей Ватикана и Сикстинскую капеллу незабываемой и захватывающей.
Наш гид Мария замечательно объяснила нам историю Колизея, Римского форума и Палатина. Это был незабываемый опыт, который мы настоятельно рекомендуем.
Гид Фернинандо был великолепен! Очень дружелюбный и отлично объясняет, особенно хороший гид для интерпретации Сикстинской капеллы.
Мы увидели основные моменты, но гид, казалось, была больше сосредоточена на том, чтобы не потерять аудиофрагменты, чем на предоставлении информации. Она была не очень увлекательной
Мы хотели бы поблагодарить нашего гида Яна за прекрасное время, проведенное с ней. Благодаря его увлеченности этот визит был самым запоминающимся, и мы сохраним о нем очень хорошие воспоминания. Малика
Общий опыт был потрясающим. Серджио был очень любезен и ответил на все наши вопросы. Погода была хорошей, во время экскурсии начался дождь, но Серджио спас нас, отправив в Колизей, чтобы уберечься от дождя. 5/5
Карлота - необыкновенный гид. Она необычным образом справилась с наплывом туристов и посетителей и сопровождала экскурсию очень хорошо продуманным рассказом, подкрепленным дополнительными материалами. Очень хорошо.
Наш дружелюбный гид была очень знающей и вежливой. Она уделила время объяснению деталей и сделала экскурсию интересной. Отличное место для посещения!
Я прекрасно провела время. Наш гид, Розелла, давала нам информацию в приятной форме, так что мы не чувствовали себя перегруженными! Ее дружелюбный характер и улыбка - настоящая изюминка. Она даже помогла нам сделать несколько фотографий! Экскурсия была проведена в соответствии с информацией на сайте, и хотя было много туристов, Розелла всегда заботилась о том, чтобы у нас было тихое место и мы могли слушать информацию, которую она давала нам в приятной манере. Спасибо, что присоединились к нам.
Невероятные впечатления не только от музея Ватикана как такового, но и от экскурсии с Паолой Лоччи. Если у вас будет возможность попасть к ней на экскурсию, вы узнаете много нового об истории искусства, Ватикане, симбологии..... Большое спасибо за все.
Илария, наш римский гид, была очень приятной и гостеприимной. Она знала свою работу досконально и была полна анекдотов, которые сделали посещение очень увлекательным. Я очень рекомендую эту экскурсию по Колизею, Палатину и Римскому форуму.
Регистрация прошла без проблем, так как многие группы отправлялись одновременно. Экскурсовод Эжени была знающей и дружелюбной.

The guide Rita was very good. The ability to 'skip the line' in both the Vatican & St Peters was awesome. What we didnt like was not being able to go back into the Vatican to explore more of it after the tour as there was more to see. Also I think the tour should finish in St Peters so we could see more of it in our own time. I felt the limited time in each place meant we didnt get great value for the money we spent.

In the past we have always done our own thing , but the guided tour option was a good choice that enabled quicker access to the colosseum, but more impotantly gave us so much information on the tour from an expert (Maria) than you couldn't possibly have gleened any other way.

In the past we have always done our own thing , but the guided tour option was a good choice that enabled quicker access to the colosseum, but more impotantly gave us so much information on the tour from an expert (Maria) than you couldn't possibly have gleened any other way.

We were lucky that the tour guided by Marco C.. Marco took care about whole group, counted us frequently, so noone was lost. We hear very interesting stories about creation of the artworks and different theories, which kept all time our interest and made a tour very individual and not as you can expect from academic explanation. @Marco thank you very much, you made extraordinarry job.

Buy your ticket online to skip the queues. Maybe choose a time when the Vatican Museums aren't as busy. We went at 3pm and there were so many people there. Get to your meeting point in plenty of time and use their bathroom before going on the tour. Ask your guide to show you the door into St Peter's at the end of the tour. You can spend plenty of time there. We actually happened on a Mass under the Dome at 6pm, beautiful music, very special.

Our commute from Termini Roma was diabolical as we hadn't planned carefully, didn't have the use of WiFi and spent ages queuing for Metro tickets because we couldn't access the information given by Headout on our phone.

The tickets were very expensive. We booked tickets with the intent of entering the basilica in case our own Trafalgar tour was unable to due to time restrictions by waiting in lines.. As it turns out, we were able to enter the day prior to this guided tour with Trafalgar. The waiting line is not bad at all. We then used these tickets for Vatican museum entry only because the tour lasted more than the 3 hours advertised and we were pressed for time. As a result, we did not make it back to the basics with this guided tour. Too expensive!

Make sure to use the app first to purchase your tickets. Plan to get to your meeting spot or destination at least 30 minutes before. So leave early! When we were in Rome we encountered a city bus transit strike. Found out 24 hours in advance and a kind front desk person at the coliseum hotel gave us detailed walking instructions to Vatican city. Even though you may not encounter the same situation, just give yourself enough time for minor delays.

We went early and had been told by others. This was the quiet time however, this was not true. There were tons of people there all in tours. This did make it very difficult to keep up with our group. It was very Noisy making it hard to hear the guide over the earphones.

You should have a good rest before you make the tour:) Visit the vatican museum website to decide which parts you should spend more time. The Sistina Shapel was so crowded; so do not expect more although you think you will feel awesome there; but St.Peter's basilica was worthy of the tour.
Jure Krnic

We booked this because we wanted guided tour of Vatican museum and both basilica's, but guid did not enter in St.Petar with us, so it was little disappointing.
Paul Chesek

You will get an earpiece at the Vatican so will better be able to hear your guide as they talk and detail the many things you will be seeing.

1. Determine in advance what it is you wish to see, and what you are willing to skip. 2. Make sure you check if there are special rules for the places you visit. 3. Arrive in advance of the agreed time; this allows for any last-minute issues to be addressed.

Wear clothes that cover your shoulders, or take a lighter scarf with you, otherwise there might be a possibility that you cant go inside the Chapel or Basilica.

1. Give yourself plenty of time to get to the meeting place for your tour. Be prepared for any unexpected delays. 2. Make sure there is good communication between you & the tour company. ( if changes in the times etc.). 3. Purchase your tickets prior to your trip.
Kevin Smith

Make sure that the guide has asked if the hearing technology is working satisfactorily. Ours didn't and everyone had scratchy sound. One of our group checked with others and the poor sound was the same for all. When guide was told this as we were just entering she got new devices that worked reasonably well. Guide needed a strong voice to be heard properly
Deborah Saunders
Sep 2024
Always book well in advance to avoid disappointment. Guided tours are well worth the money as you are given so much information by a very experienced guide.

I planed only one visit per day, in the morning...because it's too hot in the afternoon (in the summer) and after lunch we would rest to regain strenght for the evening walk trough the streets of Rome.
Delvael Vanessa

Be on time to avoid any late stress so if you take public transportation like a bus in a big known city take them on time; there is always the possibility of traffic. Read the instructions provided by the company and the guide; they are useful!
Alison Mearns
Sep 2024
Also book a skip the line experience - the cues in the hot sun to the Vatican and St Peters is ridiculous

Wear comfortable shoes. Make sure you note the moving on instructions - especially before the chapel.
Debbie Johnson

1. Arrive 1/2 early to take into consideration getting lost. 2. Never lose sight of the tour guide. 3. Book tour at least 2-days in advance to lock in your preferred date and time slot.

We took a taxi he dropped us off right down the street from the cafe meeting point. It was 3 minute walk and easy to find the tour guide. Bring a water bottle.
Tessa Warmuth

Find the meeting spot early and enjoy some breakfast from the restaurants close by the meeting point to be on time. Food nearby was great! One of the best tours we've been on so far! Soooo much great information and our tour guide was hilarious and relatable. Couldn't be happier.
Dana Smith
Sep 2024
Arrive in Vatican City early. It's crazy there. Eat prior to arrival. Dress cool enough to handle the heat while still covering shoulders, knees, chest and back. It's hot inside! Practice patience as there is a lot going on and many people.
Blanca Teresa Camacho Chiquin
Sep 2024
Book in advance. Read the cancellation and refund terms and conditions as after a certain time there are no refunds. Be there on time.
Gillian Coleman
Sep 2024
Definitely book a tour. You miss all the queuing and have a lot more fun and it's so informative. Decide if you want to do the St Peter's done tour before paying for it. You have to pay extra - not much - but there were I think 550 steps or 300 if you paid for the elevator part way.
Jarrod McCarroll

Request Celina. She worked at the Vatican for 2 years and is full of insight. She's a pleasure to spend the time with. Go to the bathroom before you enter. It's a 2.5 hour commitment once inside.

It is a long tour, and it was still quite hot at the end of August! Bring water, a personal fan, and good shoes.

Plan in advance, I do recommend this company, but if you buy in advance, the tickets will be cheaper. They get more expensive the less lead time is provided.

Any place you want to see it is best if you stay close to them. I was in walking distance and no more than 30 minutes from everything like the Vatican, Colosseum, Trevi fountain and Pantheon if these are the places you want to visit.
Indie Saunders

1. read all information available to you, ours was texted via WhatsApp 2. communicate with your tour guide whenever possible, we found Silvia to be very helpful 3. order a taxi in advance if needed as it can be extremely busy around the entrance
Cassidy DeVrieze

Be prepared to walk, book with a tour that has a smaller group, return to the location if there is ore you want to see that your tour didn't cover, it's worth it!
David Sibbald
Aug 2024
It's hot in August. Bring water, hat at least til you get inside. My phone overheated and wouldn't take pictures for a while. Plan to want to come back early the next day to spend more time in museum and gardens. Check The Pope's schedule to see if you can get reservation free for audience.
Guy Salter
Aug 2024
If you are thinking of visiting the Vatican, it's worth booking via a registered tour guide so you are guaranteed entry into your chosen places. Lots of street vendors appear to offer tickets but are just criminals working in groups to scam people. Always have valid photo ID with you to pass security checks similar to airports when entering historic buildings. It's okay to wear shorts & tee shirts into these places even though the dress code stated with tour guides says otherwise. Temperatures during the summer months make for thirsty work getting around so being comfortable matters
Gerard McCarthy
Aug 2024
Book a skip the line tour. Take a hop on hop off bus as u will be tired after your visit DO NOT sit down for coffee in cafe Vaticano. Bring plenty of water during summer months.
Devina Parhar
Aug 2024
If you are visiting in August I recommend you bring some sort of battery powered fan as it gets very hot and the tour is 3 hours long.
Christopher Howell
Aug 2024
Make sure you bring lots to drink and maybe a fan, as there is no air conditioning in most parts of the museum.
Isabelle Zammit

I highly recommend this tour. We were only 10 people. We could see that the other tours were way bigger groups.
Line Lindgreen Eriksen

Bring comfortable shoes. Bring a scarf to cover your shoulders in the church. Remember to buy a bus ticket before entering the bus to the Vatican.
David Marabello

Be sure to get dropped off on the correct side of the vatican. We walked at least 10 minutes from the taxi's drop off point. Be sure to mention the address of the restuarant.

The metro system in Rome is easy to figure out if you can read maps to take you to interesting places. If you are lucky to stay at a hotel that provides information about tourism in the area. Don't hesitate to ask the staff.. we visted a few places after the Vatican tour

We did the St. Peter's and Basilicca tour. Our guide Claudia was the best! So knowledgeable about the history and art, it was such an educational and enriching experience! In the Sistine Chapel she found us a quiet corner where we stayed for about 15 minutes to absorb the beauty. Any time we asked a question, she always had a thoughtful answer.

We arrived at 11 am from our cruise, checked in to our hotel across from the Colosseum and toured the Colosseum, time to shower and have a quick snack then off by taxi to The Vatican City to tour the museum and the Sistine Chapel. Taxied back to the hotel for a nice dinner then got ready for our early am trip to the airport. It was a rushed day but we managed to get in the two most important sites that everyone wanted to see. My suggestion would be to spend two days if you have the extra time after a cruise. Ricardo our tour guide was so passionate about giving us all of the history. You could tell just how much he loves doing what he does. Thank you so much for sharing your passion! Molto bene, Grazie! Ciao.

We accomplished the 2 1/2 hour tour easily, at 2pm to avoid the peak heat hours, as well as a self-guided explore of the Basilica, a few hours downtime in our hotel, and a 3 hour meal/drink in the evening. We opted for a more relaxing day.

Yes, I had lunch in Trastevere in Impicientta Ristorante - I recomend it, specially for carbonara, but all the dishes that I tried were very good and the staff were very attentive and friendly. I would like to do also a recomendation of another restaurant that I went to and that I repeated, as I really liked all the dishes that I tasted and also the service. It is Sampietrino - l'osteria di San Giovanni. Lastly, I can't help but mention the pizzeria 50 Kalò di Ciro Salvo. The pizzas are very good. The difficulty is to book a table. You need to go there, give your name to a list and wait at the door until they call you. It took me about half an hour to get in, but it was worth it.

I advise you to go in the morning and as early as possible. Always remember that you have to watch everything carfully, but with respect for other visitors. Finally, if you have the opportunity to read some information in advance, do so, because on site, although there are good explanations, it becomes difficult to read everything and absorb so much information.

Get your tickets in time, maybe not at the Colosseum, but rather in the other entry (Roman Forum entry). Keep in mind, that you have to get the free tickets for the children in advance too (different booth, only for the free tickets), so you'll have to wait in 2 queues. The 2nd floor of the Colosseum is often too crowded and a bit chaotic...

Be careful of pick-pockets. They prey on the weak and elderly. Keep your items well concealed. Don't be afraid to start later in the day. You are on vacation. Book your events for noon...that still gives you several hours. Use your credit cards. The exchange banks charge a 20 percent commission. Location, location, location. Book a hotel in the center or next to your favorite place to visit.

We spent about 2 hours at the Vatican. We didn't line up to see the Pope. Our start time was 1:00pm, we we could plan an easy walk to and from the Vatican museum. Basically it is a file through visit so there are not many alternate options. Probably the main one was whether to take the fastrack to the Sistine Chapel or not. We didn't and we still had plenty of time to see it. We possibly would have missed a lot if we had shorttracked it.

Visited in October at 2pm on a Wednesday and were in there for almost 4 hours. You don't have much choice about where you go as you follow the visit route but you can miss out rooms or go through them swiftly. Take the time in the chapel to wait for a seat on the side benches and do both sides for the best views. It saves your neck as well as you can lean your head back while you gaze upwards

1. Plan to walk. its great exercise and you will stumble across worthwhile places to visit 2. Plan your toilet stops and have the necessary coins. 3. Go a different way each time. 4. Food is very much the same everywhere. Don't accept invitations by the spruikers before checking the menu and the reviews. 5. We had no problem with pickpockets and little from husslers. We did come across a pile of discarded wallets and purses, some with id cards scattered around so have a strategy to keep your phone and wallet safe. We both use small one shoulder carry packs that could be worn easily on the front or side. I also had a thin wallet tied to my belt and kept in a front trouser pocket. 6. Don't shake anyone's had or high five them. (I suggest practise avoiding it because it can be natural to shake an offered hand.) 6. Get to your location early and ask staff for confirmation of location, entrances and times. It is easy to go to the wrong place.

That morning, we saw the Colosseum and spent three hours there prior to getting to the Vatican museum and Sistine Chapel. We found that to be very interesting unfortunately, the experienced a very rude host who felt the need to let us know that we were visitors in his country and that we should behave our self accordingly. We were told to walk around railings until we saw the people checking tickets and then to enter at that point. We did so then we saw two people scanning tickets rather than walk an extra hundred yards to the end of the railing. We clicked and opened a door on the railing and stepped back into line, not cutting off anyone and started walking back towards the people, checking tickets and at that point, somebody very aggressively approached us and chastised us significantly for entering an extra hundred yards to the end of the line, even though there was nobody in line.. I had significant damage to both knees and it's very difficult for me to walk long distances so any opportunity I can't to cut the steps down I do because it results in me being able to go longer during the day. I sincerely apologize to the gentleman, but he felt the need to make sure I knew that, visiting Rome and being in his city was a privilege and that I should not abuse that privilege .

We were walking to St Sebastians's Catacombs. Also a recommended viisit. We came across a number of lesser monuments, needles, columns and arches including those of Constantine the Great, Marcus Aurelius, Hadrian.

Because of time we grabbed a ciabatta sandwich in the cafe just along from the meeting point, which was as mistake as it cost us almost as much as some evening meals we had during our stay! Give yourself time to go one or two streets across so you don't get ripped off. £31 for two sandwiches and two soft drinks was an ouch moment but that was our fault really!

Watch out there are a few cafes out to get you (€70+ for three coffees and 2 bits of cake) with hidden pricing, so be careful where you go. The cafes in the museum were really good and better prices than outside.

Fungerede fint med billetter på smartphone, og ingen kø ved indgang . Lidt masende ved security, men ellers ok. I museet var der fin plads men i det sixtinske kapel var der virkelig mange mennesker. Glad for, at vi ikke var her i højsæsonen.

We spent over four hours in the museums, exploring everything from the Pinacoteca to the Sistine Chapel. However, we were most impressed by Raphael's School of Athens. We appreciated the smaller number of visitors.

The place is impressive, but a bit smaller than I imagine. There was not too much crowd. The skip ticket was unnecessary in my eyes. Some of the places without light is making hard to read the information but overall experience is really impressive and important to do once you come to Rome.

Everything was amazing, the Sistine Chapel is an incredible work of art and the museum had so many interesting things to see. The only downside is the crowd, but it’s inevitable because Rome is a world-famous destination.

It was a nice experience. However, the provided map was not the best. I saw the material provided by other agencies and they were better. In addition, they recieved extra information and tips. For instance, suggestions like visiting other exhibitions like the Vatican's car hall could be useful. I mean, a little more of interaction with the costumers will help a lot.

All, only problem that headout informed us that entry hours are until 8 pm but we were kicked off:) at 7 pm, which made us sad. Knowing this, we would prefere entry at earlier hour. Thanks

We walked about 90 minutes from our hotel. Got there 30 minutes early and we at the front of the queue. The previous queue was long but nothing like the two hours I've been told to expect. We were there in November. Probably the most difficult part of the trip was finding publick toilets on the walk there and back. There was a steady pace of people but it wasn't overly crowded. Interal toilets had queues. There was plenty to see and plenty of time to see it.
Ginger Sumner

I'm an artist, so visiting the impressive Vatican Museum and Sistine Chapel was "a must!" It was a beautiful experience, and the Headout people were very helpful, friendly, and informative, about meeting location and time. I didn't have to wait in long lines. But be prepared to walk LONG distances, within the path of halls and galleries, with lots of other visitors, and without options to shorten your visit, if you become very tired. This was the Museum's method of "crowd control" and not Headout's.

Skip the line tickets guarantee entry at a specific time only. Museums have so many beautiful artefacts that it's quite overwhelming. Museums were very busy... can't imagine what it must be like in summer

The visit was good but I would say the time that Headout suggestedb it should take to get round the Vatican was not nearly long enough. We didnt get to see everything and didnt make it to st peters

Finally after 70 years I got to see the Masterpieces of the Sistine Chapel. I also loved seeing the different forms of art through the millenia. The most overwhelming part of the visit was the great crowd that filled the hallways and rooms of the museum.

the organisation was perfect. We scipped the line and there was nearly nothing to wait, standing in a row. But I can not recommend to visit the museum - on the way to the the sixtinische Kappelle (s. photo) we were treated to move on - avanti, avanti... not really the way to look at art. There are too many people who wants to see the exponates. If you just want to have been there, it´s ok - if you expect to get touched by the pieces of art, then you will be dissapointed

Treffpunkt war einfach zu finden und Schnelleinlass hat gut funktioniert. Haben im Museum noch Audioguide geliehen. Den Audioguide für Kinder (5 €) fanden wir empfehlenswert, war lebendig beschrieben, weckte Interesse an Kunst. Den Audioguide für Erwachsene (8 €) hingegen fanden wir wenig lebendig, war eher reine Wissensübermittlung. Für unseren 17-jährigen nicht anmutend. Konnten wir nachvollziehen. Kurz vor der Sixtinischen Kapelle gibt es noch die Möglichkeit in eine Cafeteria zu gehen. Das haben wir genutzt, da der Gang durch die Museen lange und eindrücklich war. Wir mussten mal unsere Füße ausruhen. Als wir nach ca. 5 Stunden wieder draußen waren, war es bereits dunkel. Wir hatten gar nicht bemerkt, wie viel Zeit wir in den Museen verbracht haben. Es gibt unheimlich viel zu sehen, letztlich läuft man nur mit dem Strom der Besucher mit. Es ist ein Ort, wo man mit Sicherheit viele Male hingehen kann, da es so viel Kunst zu bewundern gibt.

Treffpunkt war einfach zu finden. Wir wurden von einem Mann, mit recht zügigen Gang, zum Museumseingang geführt für einen Schnelleinlass. Wir waren mit unseren 3 Kindern in den Vatikanischen Museen und Sixtinische Kapelle (ohne Führung). Für die Kinder haben wir im Museum noch einen Kinder – Audioguide (5 €) ausgeliehen, der sehr schön und lebendig gesprochen wurde. Der Audioguide für Erwachsene (8 €) fanden wir hingegen nicht als empfehlenswert, recht monoton, trockene Wissensübermittlung. Die Beschreibung von Kunst könnte man so viel schöner, anmutender und lebendiger beschreiben. War für einen 17-jährigen nicht anmutend. Kunst könnte man wirklich schöner übermitteln! Zu beachten ist, dass man für die Museen viel Zeit einplanen sollte. Letztlich waren wir ca. 5 Stunden durchgegangen. Da waren wir selbst erstaunt, es gibt so viel zu sehen. letztlich läuft man ja mit dem Strom der Besucher mit und kann auch nicht abbiegen. Es sind letztlich verschiedenste Museen in einem ganzen Komplex. Riesig! Zwischenzeitlich mussten wir mal in der Cafeteria (es gibt eine kurz vor der Sixtinischen Kapelle) uns hinsetzen. War schon ganz schön anspruchsvoll für Augen und Füße. Aber auf alle Fälle sehenswert!

This really worked exactly as described. The guide arrived promptly, explained everything clearly and then took us to the fast track queue and in we went. Perfect service. The Museums were delightful and we saw many wonders. It is probably heresy though when I say that I preferred the Raphael galleries to the Sistine chapel. Other wonderful places included the Animal Room and the map room.
Ian Haig Spanton

The highlights of The Vatican museum visit were the Map Gallery and the Sistine Chapel. Both were jaw dropping and although it was shoulder to shoulder in the Chapel we managed to sit on the side benches and soak in the frescoes. The whole experience was awesome but wear comfy footwear as you put in a lot of steps! The only slight downside is the number of tour groups you have to negotiate and they often barge through but if you wait, you get moments where you can savour what you're seeing. Ticket collection from Headout was so straightforward once we found the meeting point, which is directly opposite the Museum entrance and it was definitely worth having a beat-the-queue ticket as we walked straight in avoiding a long queue and wait. All in all the best way to see popular sights was through Headout.

Hat alles wunderbar funktioniert. Die Tickets für Erwachsene kosten regulär 25 Euro - der Mehrpreis bei Headout ist dafür dass einen der Guide an der Warteschlange vorbei schleust. Insgesamt ein guter Deal wenn man 2 Stunden warten sparen möchte.

I would suggest to add more information about registration when arriving to the meeting point (that we must checkin in buro ant to get sticker). We saw that other visitors were also not aware of that, one person went to ask in buro about the visit, got sticker than others did as this first person :)
John Miller

Found the meeting point easily and checked in. 'Guide' took us into the museum and explained how everything worked, where to go, what to do and see. He checked us through the entrance avoiding the queues passed security and showed us the inner entrance where we scanned though a second time into the museum. As stated there is no guides tour. Just an really well executed lead through to the start. We were then left to our own devices to see what we wanted at our pace ( fast). Bit pricey compared to stadrd entrance fee but worth it to book early before travelling and guarantee entrance minimising queues. The Cysteine chapel was amazing. The rest of the museum was great if you like that kind of thing... Lots of amazing artworks (just not everyone's cup of tea.

We followed the path we were told to and the crowds were significant in parts. If we go again we would plan to go at a less busy time. Great experience though and some amazing features. Some directions were confusing so we missed the Cafe but then when trying to get back we had passed through an exit and were told we couldn't get back to the Cafe which was a disappointment.

I loved the museum, and the statues were really beautiful. It felt like I was living in that time, and everything seemed real—I could almost sense them. However, the visit was really long, and honestly, by the end, I couldn’t walk anymore and just wanted to sit. But it was worth it!

It was more crowded than we ever expected. But we liked at the beginning our guide who got us through the streets and crowds and was with good sense of humour. Until the chappel the crowd was crazy and slow, lot of groups stucking the way. Some idiots filmed their whole way to the chappel! Just walk and admire! After the chappel we finally started to enjoy the rest of museum as well. I think they should organize it a bit differently. Fast track to the chappel and then the rest. Otherwise you miss most of the museum as the madding crowd just pisses you off :-D

Felemelő érzés volt bent lenni. Sajnálom hogy a tömeg sodort bennünket, nem tudtam igazán elmélyülni a látványba. Ennek ellenére felejthetetlen élmény ez nekünk. Az meg hogy soron kívül bejutottunk, az mindennél többet ért, hisz így több időnk volt Róma felfedezésére.

Absolutely loved our tour guide Francesca! She was knowledgeable and pointed out small details that you would never know if you did the tour alone. Being in the same place that historic figures were in was simply breathtaking. What we did not like was the initial starting point. We were told to meet at a location (nearby cafe). The meetup guide was late. They took one group in and then we never saw them. They then came back to get the rest of the group. As contractors, their job was to get everyone together for the tour guide.

We went through all the museums easily because there weren't so many people since we booked our visit at 8:00 a.m. The only disappointment was we weren't let to St. Peter's cathedral straight after the Sistine chapel and we had to go out of the Vatican and then to head to the Cathedral. Unfortunately there was a huge queue so we quited.

The service was good. Katya ( the guide) was helpful, patient and nice. In the Vatican itself there were too many people, like always I guess. Be prepared to walk a lot( have comfortable shoes) and be carried by the flow of tourists like a boat in the ocean. Prices in the inside cafe are moderated so if you are hungry you can afford something to eat and drink.

The sistine chapel is the end through a long walk in the vatican museum. Theres plenty of art objects from many epochs.

The Vatican museum was wonderful, filled with so many historic pieces and stunning rooms to look at. It was a feast for the eyes! My only disappointment was how unorganized the process was to get in. Only 2 staff members directing people on to the correct lines to stand on, no signs, very confusing!
