ガイド付きバチカン美術館＆システィーナ礼拝堂スキップ・ザ・ラインツアー

Enzo was a phenomenal guide and made the tour significantly better than it would have been otherwise. The sistine chapel is obviously the highlight, there are amazing roman sculptures and mosaic floors on the way there. What i wasn't expecting was a fairly extensive collection of modern art right before you arrive at the sistine chapel ... Sketches & vestments by matisse, paintings by Picasso, Dali etc.

First of all, ridiculously expensive. Once inside the Vatican our Tour Guide rattled off 'facts' like a machine gun. No option to stop and look at exhibits, sometimes taking a photo was difficult. Knowledgable but often seemed like a race. Over the ear headset was a 'joke', spent more time off than on. Came away really disappointed, this was to be the highlight of our tours, ended up the worst, by a long way!

Our guide was very knowledgeable and I would have liked to do a small group tour with her. No complaints whatsoever with her. My issues were with how the tour was presented and the "skip-the-line" billing by Viator. We didn't skip the line and waited outside in pouring rain for 20-25 minutes. While other groups were in longer lines, we didn't "skip-the-line". We were also disappointed that it didn't seem that we got the comprehensive look at the museum as advertised. We were hustled through the museum pretty quickly. For example, one of the big draws for us was the Stanza della Segnatura and the opportunity to see the School of Athens and the surrounding frescos. We were told that was not on the itinerary and we had to split off from the group to see it. For the price we paid for this tour, this shouldn't have happened. I'm not sure that I'd recommend this tour to others, but would recommend the guide.

I booked a Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel & Basilica: Skip The Line Entry + Guided Tour more than a month before arriving in Rome. Two days before the scheduled tour, the company apparently tried to call me — but of course we were already traveling internationally. The next day they finally reached me and informed me they had canceled the tour because the guide had been injured in an auto accident. First, I sincerely hope the guide is okay. But from a customer service standpoint, I asked what many people would ask: in a city like Rome, with countless tour guides, was there really no backup option available? No answer. No alternative guide. No replacement tour. Just cancellation. To make matters worse, I even booked a hotel specifically down the block from the meeting location for this tour company so we could easily make the tour without transportation issues. This wasn't simply a canceled activity — decisions and expenses were made around their commitment. When people plan international travel, they often build entire days, reservations, and lodging arrangements around prepaid tours. Companies taking bookings months in advance need contingency plans when unexpected situations happen. They say a refund is coming, and I’ll keep everyone posted on whether that actually happens. Travelers deserve better planning, better communication, and better customer service.

We arrived at the tour office early to ask whether there would be a restroom stop during the tour as it was said to be 3 hours. Was told we would have a chance to go at the beginning once inside. Several others asked this when they arrived. Tour began and there is still a substantial line to get inside even with a “skip the line” ticket. While waiting, our guide (Mariel?), asked who needed to use restroom, and we raised our hands. We got inside, and through a chaotic security process. Warning: don’t put anything small through scanner or you’ll never see it again. She then shuffled us outside to start the tour. I had to ask for the chance to use the restroom before we started as we had just walked past them and she was quite put out by the request. Didn’t appreciate that. The tour itself was about 2 1/2 hours with the Sistine Chapel at the end. There were a lot of rude people who disregarded both the dress code and rules against photographs. Guards didn’t care. Overall, a bit of a disappointment.

I found it very hard to enjoy due to our tour guides anti-Catholic rhetoric. She may have been an archaeologist but she most definitely is not a theologian. I do not recommend this tour.

Altough I had already visited the Vaticans, I wanted to go again and this was an amazing tour! Jeb, our guide was able to keep the attention high through the whole lenght of the tour, with his stories about the artists that worked here, the Popes, their personalities, the techniques and many other nice and educational stories! Highly reccomended!

Amazing and passionate tour guide can’t recommend enough! Gave me so much appreciation and seemed so enthusiastic and genuine about sharing her knowledge. 10/10.

This is our first time to Italy and of course you have to see the Vatican just cause. Our tour guide was great and very informative. We learned a lot about the artwork and history of the Vatican and the church, of course; each of the buildings are there for a different purpose, and the Sistine chapel is truly worth seeing; the artwork and detail is really unbelievable and hard to believe a human could actually paint with such precision and detail. If you’ve never been, it’s worth going at least once and this was a great tour. Definitely wear comfortable shoes. It’s a lot of walking as it’s a huge place. Thankfully, we did the after hours tour and it was still crowded. I could not imagine going earlier in the day. Carry light as you don’t want to be carrying a lot of stuff and you do need to go through security Interestingly enough, this is a Jubilee year and we were concerned it would be excessively crowded but every tour guide has told us that people are staying away because they were worried about the crowds this year. So if you’re thinking about making a last-minute trip do it ….it’s just not that crowded

Our guide was brilliant. He distilled the Vatican Museums into a manageable, yet powerful presentation and then focused on people's questions and interests. He had the knowledge to answer every question in depth. Very impressive.
