We would have been completely lost without our tour guide. She provided incredible details all throughout the Museum and was easy to follow around. She was kind and courteous to our group, other groups and the Museum staff. Great experience overall and I cannot stress enough : PURCHASE A TOUR. Even on a slow day the lines were very long and the amount of stuff in the Museum is overwhelming.
Absolutely fabulous

My family and I took a tour of the Vatican and the Sistine Chapel. It was so informative and made the whole experience more interesting. In a place like the Vatican it can get overwhelming with how much there is to see. This tour allowed you to see and learn about so much but did not overwhelm us. We walked away with so many great stories and slot of information that will stay with us. Thank you for this experience.

The Vatican museum and Sistine Chapel tour was great! So much to see, you almost have to do the tour twice to really take it all in. Our tour guide Rosella was amazing! She was fun, knowledgeable, and ready to answer any questions we had. I would highly recommend The Roman tour guy tour, especially if Rosella is your guide!
Tour was great!

Our tour guide Jon did a great job! He pointed out highlights, gave history and fun stories but did it in a clear and concise manner. Many other people we talked to said their guides with other companies were overwhelming them with information. Jon was awesome and I would recommend this tour.

Jon was an excellent guide for our tour. We chose the Privileged Entrance Vatican Tour with the Sistine Chapel). We hit all the highlights, and Jon gave great background information with an emphasis on why it was important. Jon encouraged questions. And ably answered them. Two of our group really appreciated that Jon procured over ear headphones to accommodate our hearing aids. We highly recommend this tour and you would be lucky if Jon were your guide!
Awesome experience!
