5.00Sevada knows her history! We took the museum and Sistine Chapel tour and it was just one incredible exhibit after another. Sevada had all the background information and context to keep everything in perspective. Her stories of ancient lore made the whole experience a fantastic time for our teenage girls , Audrey probably took a thousand pictures! Thank you Sevada for a remarkable time.
Amazing and actually interesting vatican museum tour avoiding the crowds.

5.00Mike gave us an outstanding tour of the Vatican Museum and Sistine Chapel! His storytelling made history come alive — suddenly, those ancient treasures weren’t just artifacts, they were part of an epic tale. He showed us hidden details we never would’ve noticed (yes, those eyes and stone really does follow you 👀💎). One of the best tours we’ve ever taken. We highly, enthusiastically, and joyfully recommend touring with Mike — you’ll love every minute!
OK but not great

3.00Asked to arrive at a set time but didn't get into the museum for about 45mins. All seemed a bit chaotic. Guide was OK but took ages to get going. Gave a lot more information when asked questions. I'm not sure I'd recomend this tour.
Great Short Tour

4.00This was a great intro tour. Mike was a good tour guide and funny. It started late which limited how much time we had in the Sistine Chapel but overall I appreciated the tour.
Never a dull moment

3.00Was suppose to start at 5 pm. Got changed to 5:30 pm. Didn’t arrive to the museum until 6 pm. We were suppose to have 30 min in Sistine Chapel and 2 hrs in museum. We were rushed out as everything was closing. We were in taxi coming back to hotel by 8 pm. Not really what they advertised.

5.00We booked two tours with NotBoringTours and we were very happy with both! The team is great and the owner is very responsive and helpful. You will get the VIP treatment. Our guide for the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel tour was Alfredo. He delivered a great experience. Going at the end of the day was perfect - the crowd was moderate, we moved easily through the museum, and we never felt rushed. Alfredo walked us directly into the building and we were through the security checkpoint and on our way within minutes. The museum is stunning. You can turn your head in virtually any direction and find something new to enjoy. Alfredo does an excellent job of directing attention to key exhibits and he provides outstanding context and insights. We were able to spend plenty of time within the Sistine Chapel taking in the art and just relishing the history that has transpired within that room. I highly recommend NotBoringTours. It was exactly what we hoped for and we’re 100% satisfied.
Great experience and...
