Reviews for Rome Papal Audience & Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel Group Tour
Faithful

As a catholic being present for the papal audience was the highlight of my time here in Rome. It was emotional for me and had a light to give thanks and praise for and needed this connection. It did not disappoint.
Misleading but like the skip-the-line access to the Vatican Museum

While we were fortunate enough to see the Pope upclose, we did it ourselves without guidance or a tourguide to let us know which seats. They led us 1 street before the entrance and pointed us on where the security line is.
Second, the tour of the Vatican Museum and Sistine Chapel were fantastic!However, our guide didn’t guide us to the Basilica. We were left before entering the Sistine Chapel. This tour is very misleading.
Best tour...

I loved our guide Dora. She had a quite acknowledge of the place and was very open to our questions. She was kind enough to wait a family of 6 take their photos and eternize their moment
I think I wouldn’t do a guide into Vatican Museum unless ir was a Vatican official guide
