The tour guides were very friendly and went out of their way to help us after our other tour company lost our tickets and we had a reservation. He then brought us to his fav coffee shop while we waited for our tour to start
Ashique Arif, perfect service! Fast communication and everything well organized. Thank you for your tickets to the Vatican Museums!

Interesting and unforgettable excursion, special gratitude to the owner Ashique Arif, who quickly and comfortably organized everything
He made an excellent recommendation to enter the Vatican museum. I recommend it because thanks to them we could see everything.
It was best to get you in our Tourism Industry with Family. Thank you that your appreciation is our main Goal.
This was more than just a tour — it felt like exploring Italy with a friend who genuinely loves sharing its history. Our guide Mr. Ashique was kind, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable. The Vatican Museum was overwhelming in the best way, and their explanations helped us really understand and appreciate what we were seeing. I’m so grateful for this experience and would recommend them to anyone visiting Italy.
Visiting the Vatican Museums was an absolutely unforgettable experience, and our tour with Explore Italy Today made it even better! The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient, helping us navigate the museum and highlighting the must-see masterpieces. The artwork, sculptures, and historical exhibits are breathtaking, and the Sistine Chapel left me completely speechless. Our guide’s insights brought the stories behind Michelangelo, Raphael, and other artists to life, making the visit much more meaningful.
This was not meant to be a tour you run thru the Vatican. Our guide was not good. She wanted to be done with it. We could hardly keep up. Too expensive to be treated like this. I do not re commend this to anyone that travels hundreds of miles to have this experience. It made me sad.
The Tour included through the museums all the way sisteen chapel. As we have been doing for ling years to give the best services through Italy. But we need to remember this year is JUBILEE. WE ARE TRYING OUR BEST FIR UPCOMING TRIPS. THANK YOU
Our guide was informative and good. Only problem we had was that we were told it was a 2 hour tour and turned out to be 3+ hours - just be aware of this when planning.
Better, second to none. It was the very professional guide, with ample knowledge and attentive to the concerns of visitors
