Allen_G, Apr 2026

Well organized tour. The tour guide was informative and kind, took special care of group member that walked either a cane. Really enjoyed the tour. , A lot of walking, wear comfortable shoes!

Decent opportunity to see...

Amanda_M, Dec 2025

Decent opportunity to see everything. It was a bit rushed and we spent a fair amount of time in lines. Guide was pleasant and knowledgeable

Tour Operator never canceled experience

Ricardo_T, Dec 2025

Horrible tour experience. Tour operator never informed me that he cancelled the experience. I travelled specifically to visit The Vatican and We couldn’t go. Very poor guest experience from Vatican Hill Tours. 7 minutes prior to my tour they call me to cancel. Never again.

Must do in Rome

Joshua_D, Oct 2025

Our tour guide was very engaging and hilarious. He was personal with everyone in the group and knew tons about every part of our tour. He kept tabs on everyone at all times. He was not afraid to push past or weasel his way around other tours/guides to get to the best viewpoints for us. He even directed us on good places to see even after he released us into St. Peter’s Basilica on our own. All of these places were incredible and I wouldn’t pass on any of them. Would definitely recommend!

Vatican Tour

Francisco was very informative and navigated us through each part of the tour quickly, yet stopped to point out important things and shared information. He was friendly and very accommodating.

Good tour

Kimberlee_S, Oct 2025

Busy but our guide was very good at getting us through in a timely manner. Great descriptions of the paintings, I would recommend this tour.

Felt rushed

Anna_R, Oct 2025

Showed up at the meeting place early and was rudely turned away. When I came back, they were swamped with people checking in for my tour and booking other tours. Our guide Alex seemed tired and was annoyed at several times during the tour. He was knowledgeable on dates, names, and had interesting facts about the art but had a few critical comments about the Catholic Church and its teachings. The tour felt rushed. Will make it a point to go back on my own to actually enjoy the Vatican.

Great day

ROSE_S, Sep 2025

I visited the Vatican museum on my birthday had a great time. The tour was amazing I would do it, and recommend it

Vatican tour

Joy_M, Aug 2025

Great guide and experience. Super knowledgeable! Thinking about taking a tour or seeing it on your own? Get a guide? First off, skipping the lines, learning so many key details about the sites which could have easily been overlooked.

Rome…Vatican, Sistine Chapel and Basilica

Bridget_P, Jul 2025

This is a very thorough tour and the guide was amazing! So knowledgeable and accommodating. It was the hottest day of the year and he was able to keep us moving through the tour interested in more.
