So many steps, no Sistine Chapel

Karen_G, Aug 2023

The tour guide was amazing and the tour itself was good, but be warned, there is a very narrow passageway of 310 steps to get to the top (after taking an elevator to the roof). This should have been in the description. I never would have booked this tour. In addition, it does not include admission to the Sistine Chapel, which requires an additional ticket and long wait times.

Worst tour eveslr

Naji_Z, Aug 2023

I would not advise you to book this tour through Viator. I am actually going to ask for a refund for the worst service ever. The timing changed and we were not informed then we were let in but the guide was terrible. Not at all worth the whole thing. You could have bought the tickets by urself
