Best views of Rome - Awesome history and views. Loved the models showing the variations throughout the centuries. Highly recommend. The self guided audio guide worked best for us so we could go at our own pace.

Interesting history of this Castle and St. Michael’s role,and great views of St Peter’s . - Quick access. No long line. The Castle is across from St. Peter’s at the Vatican, so you get excellent views of St Peter’s. The Castle has an interesting story around St Michael the Archangel. You also get great views of the Tiber River.

Athens to Rome 2026 - The tour meeting place and time were great. The rep helped set-up my phone but the use of phones were a bit cumbersome. The castle was excellent.

Best place to view the Vatican and Tiber River - An amazing view, the audio guide is ok, just a little pricey for not having to get a ticket the standard way.
