Sistine Chapel with Giuliano at Crown Tours is 5 Stars! - Our guide was very knowledgeable, kept up with the group as to not lose any one, it can be incredibly crowded, he was also accommodating for ppl who needed a break, it’s a lot of walking and the stairs can be taxing. The tour was 3 hours and the history this guide knew was incredible. Crown Tours is great and Giuliano Armini is a gem!! The tour was, Vatican Museum, St. Peter’s Basilica, Sistine Chapel.
