It was lovely but I didn’t realize what skip the line meant. We still stood in line as it was very crowded, however our line was super fast compared to those who had to wait in line without a guide. So worth it. There are no words to describe the beauty of the art work. Would do this tour again. Thank you Nadia for your guidance and explanation.

The tour was fantastic! Our guide even helped us get tickets to walk up the dome, which was a great highlight of visiting the Vatican. Highly recommend!

It was a good tour but the headset wasn't great. That was provided by the Vatican.

We enjoyed our tour with Nadya of the Vatican Museums, Vatacombs, and St. Peter's Basilica. Nadya was very knowledgeable and kind. Thank you!

So knowledgeable and was so sweet when our 7 yr old would ask more questions to keep learning. We enjoyed every moment. Thank you again

This was an excellent tour and needed for the crowds. Loved our tour guide but feel terrible I cannot remember her name now. She was very knowledgeable and made sure we got to see the great pieces of art and basilica. At the end she directed us on how to do the Jubilee door and again it was quick and easy without a wait. That was a bonus I was not expecting with all the crowds.
