“I chose this option for the wider entrance time window, 12-6pm and it worked perfectly. The palace has so much to see that you could be overwhelmed, it might have worth researching the must see things prior to the visit. That said, it is excellent.”
Review of the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter’s Basilica tour, with advice on crowds, guides, timing, value, and practical limits.
“I was really looking forward to visiting the Vatican Museums, but unfortunately, the guided tour was a huge letdown. While the guide provided a lot of information, there was hardly any time to explore the museum itself. For example, we barely spent any time in the statue room—just stood at the entrance, listened to another long explanation, and then quickly moved on to the next area without even getting the chance to properly admire the statues.

“We struggled a little to find the location but other than that, this was an excellent experience. Our tour guide shared a lot of great insights and was really funny too. I would not recommend it for claustrophobes. The passages became very narrow. However, if you’re not claustrophobic, I highly recommend this. It was awesome!”
Review of a full-day Tuscany tour from Florence to Siena, San Gimignano, Pisa, and a Chianti winery lunch with wine tasting.
“The day was great! Our tour guide was absolutely amazing! He even helped me find my phone when it went missing! The tour is perfectly described on the Viator app as to what you will do for the day. Personally all in our group said if we did it again we wouldn’t go to Pisa and would have really wanted to stay longer in the other two towns. The wine tasting and lunch is an absolute must!!”

Prior to the tour, we had mixed up our days, and the company sorted it out without a hitch, even telling us which trains to catch (Napoli trains are a nightmare!!)”
