Amazing tour by Fabio - We had the best experience yesterday, when on tour with our hilarious and extremely knowledgeable tour guide Fabio. Travelling all the way from Australia he was such a joy and made the tour of the Vatican & Sistine chapel so easy to navigate around the amazing landmarks. It was such a beautiful day and I recommend the tour and Fabio’s tours!

Amazing self guided tour - This ticket was easy to book. We found the check-in location easily and enjoyed the visit to the museum at our own pace. A beautiful experience.

Skip the line - Purchasing the skip the line ticket was well worth it especially if you do not have the patience to queue up a very long line. The meet up place was easy to find and they guided us to the skip the line entrance gate. The museum itself was magnificent. The only thing I did not like was when we reached the Sistine Chapel, the chapel/museum staffs were just basically rushing us to exit the place, we did not even had the time to pray inside. The chapel was small and packed with tourists, this was probably the reason why they were basically shooing us to the exit. Nevertheless, the ticket providers were great.

Exactly as Expected - The experience was just as expected! We picked up our tickets in the Piazza described. We chose to walk to the entrance ourselves rather than waiting for the other people who booked the self-guided tour but the guide told us exactly what to do then we were free to wonder the many rooms of the Vatican museum

Guided tour to recommend. - During our stay in Rome we took a guided tour of the Vatican Museums and Saint Peter's Basilica. Note that it was a great moment thanks to our guide Fabio L who overwhelmed us with his knowledge, his professionalism, his enthusiasm and his great availability. Thanks again to him.

A must see site when in rome - What a fantastic day . The Vatican was spectacular and very interesting. The skip the line option was great . The normal lines can be massive.

SCAM ALERT! - SCAM! Do not book with Gray Line. They advertised €41 they charged €65.90 per ticket. Then we met our guide, she walked us a very short distance from door to Vatican. She handed us tickets, which were the €25 tickets, same as ones you buy just inside, gave zero information, I asked her who I should talk to about my incorrect charges and she said just contact gray line, so no help there whatsoever. They she drops everyone off at line to Vatican. No instructions, no nothing. You can buy ungraded skip the line tickets just inside for €25. What you get for your money: walked across the street for a € 40 fee in addition to your regular ticket. Honestly this Gypsy scam practice should be illegal. I will be reporting them to anyone who will listen and also having to dispute incorrect website pricing to our credit card company.
