Great Experience - Maximo was charming, knowledgeable & wonderful! He moved us through the line efficiently and left us in the perfect spot to see the Pope. Thank you Maximo, all the best to you.

A must if you’re in Rome - It was fantastic and our guide was superb. We got to our meeting point an hour early and enjoyed the people coming, the set up of souvenirs and even the street cleaners. It was a pleasure being a part of the service and seeing the Pope.

Good Shepherding Inside the Vatican - Massimo and another woman were the ones who met us in front of Caffe San Pietro. Their task was really to just gather us outside, get us in line and through the security, and gesture to the row of seats where we could sit. Besides entry to the Vatican, they provided a free ticket for a one-day hop-on-the-bus tour with their company, as well as a discount coupon at a local souvenir shop where there was a bathroom. Other than this, we were on our own after the papal audience.

Save your money - This tour was a rip-off. The tickets to see the Pope are free. You can get them from the Vatican. If you get there early enough you can get a great seat. We were quite a distance from the steps but the Pope-mobile did go right past us so we did get to see the Pope. The second part of the "tour" included a hop-on, hop-off bus ride, but there was no bus stop anywhere near the Vatican and it was too far to walk to get one so we didn't get to use what we actually paid for. It was very difficult to find our guide in the morning as he had no sign and was not at the indicated meeting place. He never introduced himself to us either.
Greenline Tours are definitely not worth it - save your money by not buying this.

Disappointed! Use a different company! - This tour company is very poorly organized and operated. The station that you meet at is really just a restaurant. There was no one to meet us until after we contacted th e company. Our date was a meet with the the new pope. Security was in place. No coach tour was available. Another employee rushed us over to our guide who simply introduced himself, stood inline with the guests, handed us our tickets to the venue, then disappeared. We contacted the company and were told this was normal. This is not the way other tour companies operate. Everyone stays together and are guided through the venue. We are extremely disappointed in their service. Thankfully, the papal Wed. Mass was extremely full and wonderful.

Terrible experience! - The guide did not show up at the event and kept me waiting for hours at the place that I was instructed to go and meet. I had to walk a lot to get there, and then a no-show. This is not what is expected when you pay for an event that is free!
