Our tour guide, Cosimo,...
Our tour guide, Cosimo, was outstanding. His insights into the Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel, and St Peter’s Basilica made our day very memorable. We definitely got in easier with the skip the line tour than standing in the long line for general admission.

Private tour of Vatican museums, Sistine Chapel & St. Peter’s Basilica
Our private tour of Vatican Museums, St. Peter’s and Sistine Chapel with Deny and Maya Tours was nothing short of exceptional. She was friendly, engaging, and kept us all wanting to learn more (even the teens). Highly recommend Deny.

An Unforgettable Tour
We toured the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter's Basilica with Luigi. He was a wealth of knowledge, personable, and so polite! As an archeologist he explained everything in a way that helped us understand everything we were seeing. We learned so much! I would highly recommend touring with Luigi, you won't be sorry! He made us feel like VIP's.

Wonderful Guides
A very informative tour led by knowledgeable and friendly guides, Giada for the Vatican Museums and Susanna for the Basilica.
The agency was very responsive and helpful in providing a wheelchair rental that made the tour possible.

Great tour!!
Ambre was an outstanding guide for the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter’s Basilica! City Wonders makes the meeting point to start extremely easy!! Ambre was very knowledgeable, took care to make certain all of the group were together throughout the tour (these spaces are VERY crowded), she hit all the highlights, made sure everyone took advantage of water refill stations & bathrooms. City Wonders and Ambre get an A+.
