2.00Rome Your Way: guide was Tatiana. Could not understand most of what she said and she left the main group to go back to find one couple who said that they weren't enjoying the tour. We knew that St Peter's wasn't available. The others in our group were unpleasantly surprised.
Beautiful

2.00Tour guide made us wait 40 minutes to guess who were late. We Wikipedia over a lot of things which is understandable being how large the museum was but the headphone situation sucked we could barely hear her. She also wasn’t great at special awareness she would have the group stop as soon as we entered a section of the museum and repeated herself a lot.
Going above and beyond!

5.00We were late, Rome traffic!, for the meeting. The group had gone and were in the Vatican. We called the office on our arrival and somehow they got somebody to find us, crash the queues, and catch up with the group. Unless, you have experienced the crowds you won’t appreciate how well they did! Oh yes, the tour and guide were also great!👍👍
Really depends...

3.00I think maybe the worthiness of this experience would depend on your your guide and whether or not you're interested in the history of Rome and the Vatican. Our guide went into that A LOT and it sorta got to the point that I just wanted to see St. Peter's already. She spent too much time talking about the map room and the tapestries. I just wanted to keep moving. Again, I think your enjoyment would depend on your tour guide.
Fascinating well-guided tour

5.00Excellent knowledgeable guide. So much better to do a skip the line tour WITH a live guide as there is so much you might miss especially when it is very busy.
Bad organization,

3.00The first guide did not show up and did not speak French. The second guide didn't talk much more. Late! We could not finish the tour because Basilica was closed due to the late hour. Failed activity!!!!
Tour left without us

3.00Well we found out to read instructions carefully. Our tour start time was at 0845. We arrived at the meeting point at 0840 and our tour was nowhere to be found. Then we read that you are supposed to be there 15 minutes early. We were disappointed about missing our tour. Giving 3 starts because customer service had no issue giving us a refund.
Our best tour ever
