Extensive tour of the Vatican Museum. This was extended due to the Sistine Chapel door being closed. Finally entered the Sistine Chapel. This was the highlight of the tour. Expected to see the Basilica but didn’t get to see that.

The English-speaking tour guide spoke with such a thick Italian accent, spoke very, very, lowly, and spoke very, very fast. The entire group were unable to understand nearly all of the explanations. She was kind, but unable to comprehend that WE were unable to comprehend (and really didn't seem to notice or care).

Our guide Sylvia was very entertaining and knowledgeable. She made the experience interesting, and showed us the important pieces, which was just as well because it was heaving with people. Just be aware that 'skip the queue means that you join a shorter queue of the other 'skip the queue groups'

This tour was absolutely terrible. We spent hundreds of dollars to see this. Got to our meeting point at the time on the ticket. Our tour guide was great but told us the St. Peter’s basilica didn’t open until 2 pm. The guide took her time. After 5 hours we were over the tour and my husband just wanted to leave. So needless to say I never saw what we paid for. It was absolutely ridiculous. And nothing but a waste of time. I was so pissed off when we left the tour.

Our guide was amazing with the depth of her knowledge and passion for the Vatican. This had to be the best way to see and experience the Vatican. Skipped the line to.

Comprehensive and informative. Suggest to start on time, ran a bit late in the end and everyone was visibly tired. Overall would recommend.
