This is definitely worth every bit of the cost. There were only 10 of us in the tour and the guide was exceptional --just fabulous!!!!

Though this is an expensive tour, it is worth every penny because it is probably the only way that you can truly see, learn about, and enjoy the Vatican Museum and Sistine Chapel. Two days later, I was walking past the Vatican. At 8:45 AM, the wait to get into the Vatican was 2 hours and 30 minutes! Avoid the crowds and enjoy the true beauty of this amazing place with this tour.

This was a fatastic once in a lifetime tour. Only 11 people. My last trip there I was pushed and shoved and couldn't see anything. The guide was very well informed as well and explained everything we saw in detail.

Outstanding! Our tour group totaled 14 including our guide and 2 guards. It was unbelievable to have 30 minutes in The Sistene Chapel with no crowds. Our guide was terrific. She was knowledgable and enthusiastic. It appeared that she loved her job. I highly recommend both the tour and our guide

This was hands down the best tour we have ever experienced. More than worth the higher price to get away from the crowds at a cooler time of day and have the opportunity to truly see and experience the sights of the museums and Sistine Chapel. It is a completely different and superior experience when you are able to hear the tour guide, ask questions, and immerse yourself in the surroundings instead of being herded through in the crowd. We will recommend this to anyone going to Rome!
