We visited Rome as the last port of our European Cruise. Our travel agent suggested we book our tour of the Vatican through privatetour.com. We booked the skip the Line tour and had an EXCELLENT tour guide. She knew every fact about everything at the Vatican Museums, Saint Peter's and the Sistine Chapel. She answered every question, offered additional information about places or items, was very detailed and was very cordial and kind. I think we were very lucky to have such a friendly and knowledgeable guide. After our tour, I felt like a specialist on the Vatican. You could tell she is serious about what she does and believes in maintaining and sharing her love for the Vatican. I highly recommend this tour when you visit Rome. You will not regret it.

The tour was helpful for the Vatican museums which are extremely crowded. There are many exhibits and having a tour guide is helpful in knowing which are important.

All of the stops listed on this tour are amazing to see and I would highly recommend going on this tour. It allows you to see many sites altogether in a reasonable amount of time. Obviously, with these sites being very popular tourist attractions, you expect large crowds of people and this doesn't disappoint. The skip-the-line feature absolutely is worth it because otherwise, we would have waited in an atrociously long line just to get in. I would just recommend being aware that these places will all be very crowded so don't stray too far from your guide and you will be fine.

The Vatican museums were breathtaking and a must see. The Basilica has been one of the most majestic churches I have ever seen. The tour guide was excellent and very knowledgeable and made the tour interesting to all in our group. Definitely recommend.

When we arrived at the Vatican to start this tour, it was a ZOO as far as eyes could see. Our tour guide was very good. She helped us traverse the crowded Vatican, St. Peter's Basilica and Sistine Chapel. These places are uber-crowded. Skip the lines saved us at least 3 hours standing in the heat. Well worth it.

This was a great tour. Our guide was the best and knew so much about the Vatican museum. We learned so much! This tour is an absolute must. You would miss so much without a guide plus the skip the line was worth so much.
