Beautiful art from floor to ceiling! We were unable to visit St. Peter's Basilica, but visited other museums in instead (not tour guide's fault). Crowded, lots of stairs. Tour guide was very knowledgeable and patient with everyone. Not to be missed!

Really well organized and a great way to see the museum. Alysia was great and kept us on schedule. A small suggestion is to allow for short breaks in your tour and encourage the group to ask questions.

An amazing place to visit. However, very very crowded and not an overall satisfying experience. I wouldn’t do it again.
