Amazing experience at the Vatican Tour - We did the Vatican tour and we loved it! Our guide Sevada made it so fun for us, and she was so knowledgeable! She shared all the stories, was thorough with all parts of the basilica! Amazing tour and even better tour guide. In addition we wanna say a special thank you because the lines were huge and we were gonna miss the tour. But Sevada still found a way to give us the tour later in the day, going above and beyond for our group of 5! Highly recommend!! Amazing experience!!

Memorable trip to magnificent St. Peter’s Basillica - Our guide Sevada did a wonderful job. She gave all intricate details with beautiful anecdotes. My family, including my daughters, enjoyed the tour thoroughly. Inspite of heavy rush, we completed the tour with ease because of her skills.

Don’t go through the Holy Door without booking these guys!! - We had the most incredible experience with Alessandro, our guide. He was funny. He was very knowledgeable and he helped is navigate St. Peter’s square so well. He answered all our questions with much patience and he was so kind and helpful to my 13 year old daughter who asked many questions. English is his first language which made it easy for us to communicate. At the start of the tour, we were having trouble locating the meeting spot. With 5 mi ties before the tour started I was still trying to find the place. I got a phone call from Mike who added Alessandro on FaceTime who could see where we were in our video and he came to get us. For the geographically challenged family, with 2 kids, we were especially grateful for this support!!! Also, I’d like to note that we booked this tour the night before, in June of the Jubilee year and there was no issue with availability which I was grateful for. A few months back we had booked with another tour for who cancelled on us unexpectedly . These guys will go above and beyond to make sure you have an incredible experience. Book them !!!!
