4.00Skip the line was a good choice, lines were quite long outside the Vatican Museum. This particular service though was just ok. We arrived early for our 10am appointment, but had to wait until after 10:30 to be taken to the museum because other guests wanted to change ticket times. This particular service felt chaotic and unorganized. Maybe get a skip the line, but from a different provider?
It's definitely worth it.

5.00Long lines. We missed our tour time by not giving enough time for the metro. The group still helped us use our tickets to get in and do an audio tour. Highly recommend the rm. kind and supportive. Do recommend printing out a map for your own use. The museum only has electronic maps. That was not convenient for us. The museum and the system chapel were amazing. We then toured St. Peter’s for another WOW. Worth the time to see them all. September was a nice time to be in Rome.
Support and security.

5.00It's a good experience. If or if some kind of guidance is needed if you do not take advantage of the tour. Spanish is not a language that they handle well in the Museum being so many Spanish speakers who attend.
Great tour of Vatican and...
