What are people saying about Rome

Rome: Skip the Line Vatican, Sistine Chapel, St Peter Small Group

Nicole_F, Apr 2026

Great small group experience

We highly recommend this tour to hit the highlights of the Vatican Museum & Sistine Chapel. Unfortunately, we were unable to get into St. Peter’s. Our tour guide, Samuel’s (Sam) was great. He navigated our small group (-12) through all the major areas of interest and did a great job of avoiding the crowds. We learned so much. Our tour ended right at the Chapel - allowing us the ability to take our time.

Skip the Line Vatican Sistine Chapel & St. Peter's | Small Group

Joey_H, Apr 2026

Great tour with smaller...

Great tour with smaller group and the tour guide took their time as well and didn't rush through everything. So much to see and they did a wonderful job of pointing out important and interesting pieces. It was excellent having this tour as well because it skipped the line to get into the museums but then also the Basilica.

Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel Skip-the-Line Tickets

Kate_E, Apr 2026

I recommend

This was great purchase. Found the guide easily and they took us though security and tickets in quick skip the line area then once inside we were left to our own so look and move along at our own pace. Having a guide talk to us though the museum for few hours was not what we wanted so this was prefect. I recommend.

Skip the Line: Vatican Museums & Sistine Chapel Tour + Basilica

Megan_C, Apr 2026

A good tour

We had a fabulous tour guide Martina who was very easy going and knowledgeable. It was a great company to book through and we do recommend this to others. The tour itself we enjoyed but weren't overally blown away by it, even the sistine chapel surprisingly. Huge crowds also made the experience a little unpleasant unfortunately.

Betty_R, Apr 2026

Don’t miss this!!

We toured the gallery with grandparents, parent and kids. It was amazing…a must see!! Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and wove stories around the statues and paintings. An extremely beautiful building filled with unique art pieces. After the tour we ate in the cafeteria. I highly recommend this stop as well. Very tasty food!

VATICAN: Vatican Museum and Sistine Chapel Skip The Line Tickets

Melanie_A, Apr 2026

Skip the line is the best!!😂🙈

The tour company was great, found them easily got our tickets… gave very good directions, and we headed off to the museum to meet our tour guide, but the Vatican was completely full and very unsafe as far as maximum capacity… Nothing to do with this company specifically the Vatican is at fault but we did enjoy the tour and the guides were great.

Jacque_M, Apr 2026

Highly recommended if you can’t get tickets through the official site

Super easy to book and meet the guide in front of the Caffe Vaticano right across from the entrance lines to the museums. Get there early to grab a coffee. This is not a guided tour, but you can download audio guides to listen to while you walk through the museums and Sistine Chapel.

Very communicative and kind company!

We didn’t get to experience due to travel changes but this company was very understanding. Will definitely book through them when we return. They send messages with all the necessary information via WhatsApp so make sure you have that downloaded for communication with them.

Vatican Museums & Sistine Chapel Skip-the-Line Tickets

andrew_W, Mar 2026

Enjoyed the experience

Be aware the Vatican is very popular and queuing can be long and and perhaps you should consider buying a ticket that jumps the queue I did this and I think it’s worth it The tour is worth it although there is a lot of information to take in you are free to roam afterwards at your own pace

Small Group Colosseum, Roman Forum & Palatine Hill Tour

rosemarie_d, Mar 2026

The way to go to see the archeological sites.

The guide really knew about Rome and especially these sites. Without him, we wouldnt have had such a full experience, understanding their meaning and archeological facts. He brought the Colliseum to life, and did not overlook its purpose and did not rush us.

Our tour started not as...

Our tour started not as planned due to nasty rainy weather. However, our tourguide made sure that despite the weather, it’s going to go as planned. We were also the only people who showed up, so this turned into a private tour. We are so thankful to our guide who provided so much valuable info and shared so much knowledge with us!

Megan_F, Aug 2025

Serena is the best!

Serena was absolutely incredible to tour the colosseum and forum with. She was very thoughtful about our experience, answered all of our questions and was extremely knowledgeable. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience (except that we wish we booked more time and places!). Thank you Serena.
