• Vatican Museums
  "Good experience..."
  "Interesting museums, but could not appreciate completely, as things got rushed with the kids being with us. One can easily spend a few hours at each museum if kids aren't a factor, as some things for kids become repetitive and boring. Would have like to take a guided tour, but this would have meant ..."being tied to the guided tour and spending longer hours, and this was impossible with the kids. Certainly if planning to visit in the morning, buy tickets online (a little bit more expensive) to avoid long lines. Afternoons are the best, as hardly any lines exist, and one can almost directly show up at the ticket counter. Avoid bringing bags etc. with you , as at the entrance one has to pass though metal detectors, and security check of person and belongings, quite similar to airports. " More >
• What a Life Tours
  "Great tour"
  "We took a tour of the Vatican with What a Life tours and we thought it was truly excellent. You could easily spend a year in the Vatican and still not see it all. Seeing it without a guide would be hard - it's vast. Our guide, Angelo, was just excellent. He was lively, fun, organised and had a great..." sense of drama. He clearly loved his art and his enthusiasm came across in the tour. This is a good value for money, well organised, tour and if you are thinking of doing the Vatican/other key sights (and let's face it, you are in Rome....) you should use these guys. " More >
• St. Peter's Basilica
  "Amazing, but expensive"
  "Nothing more to say really! The most impressive church in the world. Its so big and detailed, it doesn't even look real. It cost us 90 euros for the museum, Cicstene Chapel and Basilica, which wasn't easy to accept, but was worth it. Try to research the quietest times to go and if you're doing the..." museum tour, go when its sunny, as the gardens and squares look beautiful. " More >
