5.00We had Sabrina as our tour guide and she got us a front row seat to see the Pope drive right in front of us! An experience of a lifetime! It was a hot one and waited from 7am till 10am for the Pope to come out. Make sure to not book a 10:30am tour or you’ll miss it!
Once in a lifetime experience, highly recommend

5.00Julia was a wonderful guide - personable, professional, and warm. She helped us through security and the lines, and we ended up with wonderful seats just a few over from the center row. She kept us entertained right up until the audience began. A fantastic experience - highly recommend.

4.00There is still a tremendous amount of waiting even though you book these tickets. It is an EARLY morning with waiting in multiple lines. The guide was able to secure excellent seats for us. I would suggest bringing a book or something as you will have hours to fill before the audience begins. The headphones they give you to hear your guide as you walk to/get in to St Peter's square were not working (lots of static) which was frustrating. Overall though it was the easiest way to get to experience this and they made the lines as short as possible and guided us to the best seats which I would never have otherwise known.
A memorable experience

Perfect Papal Audience

5.00Papal Audience was amazing the location of our seats allowed us to be very close to the Pope when he drives by the crowd. We were settled in early and able to use restrooms. Our guide was amazing and gave us an overview of what to expect and how to see everything. I would definitely recommend this experience with this company.

5.00Best experience ever. I got referred to the company by a friend of mine who used this service for her travel to Italy. I was not disappointed - all of my questions and concerns were answered promptly. The tour guide was not only on time, friendly and full of knowledge, he was extremely charismatic, funny and full of great jokes and stories.
Fantastic Tour!

5.00Great Tour! Highly recommend! Our guide Anna was extremely knowledgeable and funny. She kept us laughing and well informed the history and about everything around us. The Basilica is gorgeous! We also paid to do the Dome which had amazing views but A LOT OF STEPS, (hundreds) even if you take the elevator, as it only goes about half way up. Keep in mind, this is not a “skip the line” tour. You wait in the regular line to get in just like any other visitor. We were there on a Wednesday and waited about an hour and a half to get inside the Basilica.
