A Coloradan’s Perspective - Barbara was an excellent guide with extensive knowledge about all things Vatican. Skipping the lines and having a pro to help moves us through the chaos of lots of people in small spaces and lots of turns to navigate was very helpful. For a guy and his wife from Colorado, it was a great tour. Lots of walking - you’ll appreciate a good lunch afterwards

Perfect tour for those who don’t like ‘tours’!!! - A nice tour! Our second with this company. Each guide is different but still gives wonderful, brief information that is useful for the experience. You get an ear headphone that the guide uses to speak into. I suggest bringing a foam earplug to place in the other ear to block out ambient noise…if that is needed. Remember to tip your tour guide! They do appreciate it!!!

Go it alone. Waste of precious visiting time. - You will go through 3 hours of intense detail of things in which perhaps you have no interest before visiting the Chapel or the Basilica. Almost a soulless experience. It's better to do a self guided tour and move freely to where you want to go. The tour keeps you isolated to the whims of the guide. I am a devout catholic who was greatly disappointed in the experience. Should have done it myself.
