Vatican Family Tour (vip entrance) Story Telling guides
Description
18 yrs of highly rated reviews means your with the right guy, I take care of my guests and know your needs. You need to skip the lines, you need small groups with a historian story telling guides who speaks excellent English. I focus on smart timing so we can not just skip lines but avoid crowds, and I make sure that we are kid friendly too. My tour is extensive we visit in a short period the major points, The Sistine Chapel, Raphael Rooms, The Vatican Museums, now thats a lot. we can give guided tours in other languages please ask in advance with Angel Tours your not with a large agency your with a small outfit with a single owner who cares.

The Vatican is huge if I loose you there you wont be seen again ever. But I never do that unless.... I start our tour by entering real quick skipping the lines, then we walk towards the Sistine Chapel but along the way we see ancient Roman relics. Egyptian art, Papal art, The Raphael Rooms and then The Sistine Chapel. After that we skip the line to St Peters Basilica which is an amazing visit too, many find this to be the highlight of our tour. We show you St Peters Square but do leave you inside the Basilica to wander around, maybe climb the dome or go to see the Tombs of the Popes. This experience is great for younger folks because I know how to keep them interested
The must see of every Vatican tour of course

Valeria was a great guide for us! This was our third Vatican museum trip with Angel Tours (over the course of 20 years!), and she delivered new details about the art and architecture. She also was great at engaging our very jet-lagged teenager!
20 years thats brilliant I am glad you got Valeria as your guide she loves her job and Rome. Make sure to look us up in other cities too thanks for the lovely review Sean T
Angel Tours is a serious, responsible, and highly professional agency. Their guides are absolutely amazing: knowledgeable, punctual, respectful, and passionate. They made our trip truly unforgettable. Highly recommended! Five stars without hesitation.

Sherry I really do appreciate your review thanks Sean T
We were sooo tired by the Vatican tour, it was our last day in Rome and we had to tell our guide, Valeria to cut it short because my sister was having a migraine. She was so kind and rushed us thru still showing us all the beautiful artworks and main things to look at! Thank you to all your guides and for all ur help planning. We will be back!
we are going 10 plus years with Valeria she is fantastic and the type of historian that I can just hand my guests over too no stress and it seems that with her that nothing is too much we love Valeria thanks for writing about her I do appreciate it a lot Sean T
This was a great tour and we had a very knowledgeable tour guide. We had Valeria, as a guide, and she did a fantastic job. She provided lots of history behind all the artifacts and pieces in the museum. Thank you for the wonderful tour and experience.
there we go, Valeria again why? because she loves her job and everyone can see it thanks for the review Sean T
A fabulous tour. Our historian, Lara, was so knowledgeable and made the experience so much more memorable. Booking process was very easy. Sean and Angela were beyond helpful. Highly recommend.
Oh its very nice of you to mention me and Angela, most folk forget us once the tour is over. But I am glad that you and Lara had a nice time at the Vatican. its a very interesting time to be in Rome as our good Pope has passed on. thanks for the review Sean T
Just finished a truly unforgettable afternoon with Angel Tours at the Vatican, and we can’t recommend them highly enough! Our guide, Valaria, was exceptional,so knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the history and beauty of the Vatican Museums, the Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter’s Basilica. She brought everything to life with such clarity and warmth, making the entire experience feel both meaningful and enjoyable. We even had the privilege of walking through the Holy Door at St. Peter’san incredibly moving moment to end a perfect tour. A Huge thanks to Angel Tours and especially to Valaria. If you’re planning a visit to Rome, do yourself a favour and book with them,you won’t regret it! #AngelTours #VaticanTour #RomeTravel #HolyDoor #ValariaWasBrilliant #HighlyRecommended
Indeed Valeria is a fantastic guide, who loves her job. She has been with us for many years now and is also well known at the Vatican. This review and its details are very much appreciated by me and Valeria thanks Sean T
We visited the Vatican a couple of times on our own. It was great but having a personal tour guide through Angel Tours made the visit amazing. The communication with Angel Tours and our guide Valeria was easy and always prompt. They simplified navigation into the Vatican Museums which can be complex. Valeria was knowledgeable on the Vatican and history in general. She was happy to share shared that knowledge with and tailored the tour to our interests. Her tour was enjoyable, engaging, fun, and educational. We have used Angel Tours for other events and will continue. We recommend Valeria as a tour guide. You won’t be disappointed.
Hi Kathy yes indeed Valeria does do a great job , and she loves the history and stories of the Vatican. Her patience and deep thinking bring that whole tour to life. Next time do book one of my guides in Florence or Pompeii, London or Barcelona. Thanks Sean T
Our tour guide, Rosa was awesome! She was very knowledgeable about the Vatican & Rome. Rosa was very kind & caring with my husband who had some mobility issues. She helped him navigate all the stairs & found short cuts for us to take. She even made sure we were able to find a taxi on the pouring rain to get back to our hotel safely. I highly recommend Angel Tours & ask for Roda as your guide!
Rosa really is special and I am glad that I have her on board. Thanks for this lovely review and make sure to book with me in other cities too. Thanks again Sean T
Our angel tours tour of the Vatican with our tremendously knowledgeable and dedicated guide Valeria was a period of time in our lifetimes we will never ever forget. Her knowledge and devotion to her craft made our tour out of this world.. I cried twice, completely overwhelmed by the experience of what we were witness to and her delivery of the experience made our tour profoundly special and super enjoyable! Valeria is a guide of extraordinary knowledge and passion for the history that the Vatican City is rich with .. and we can’t forget her kindness in leading us to an amazing gelato spot for a delicious treat! We can recommend the angel tours tour experience.. the guides are unreal!! Valeria you are a blessing and complete treasure to anyone lucky enough to enjoy a tour with you!
