Reviews for Papal Audience with Pope Francis in Vatican City
Great Guide
Angela_P
Our guide was very knowledgeable and spoke very good English. Beautiful May weather and of course to see the Argentinian Pope was a once in a lifetime experience.
Papal Audience done right!
Eleonora_R
This once in a lifetime experience was unforgettable! Our guide was awesome. She knew exactly where to place us in St.Peters Square to see the Pope 2 times as he drove by. We were in the second section from the stage in front of St.Peters Basilica. 100% recommend this beautiful experience!
Awesome Experience

Great experience - one every Catholic should make. Our guide was professional, while also knowing the ins and outs of navigating the rush of the Papal Audience.
Terrific tour guide, terrific tour!

We went on an English-speaking tour/papal audience on Wednesday May 22nd and our tour guide was wonderful! She had a thorough knowledge of all things Vatican City and knew the perfect place to sit so that we were able to be perfectly placed to see Pope Francis as he greeted the crowd. She then invited us to walk with her around the square after the audience to share even more about the Vatican. She was friendly and warm and incredibly knowledgeable, we would highly recommend this tour!!
Wonderful Papal experience

Monica was an excellent guide. She gave a lot of good history even things I did not hear on my Vatican tour. Really appreciate her attentiveness to all our questions. We were less than 20 feet from the Pope when he came by on his entrance.
