Rome: Vatican Museums Ticket/Tour with Colosseum Experience

Good to know

• All visitors to the Vatican must pass through airport-style security. During high season the wait at security may be up to 30 minutes. • Due to the route covered and/or the means of transportation used, it is not possible to participate in this tour using a wheelchair, scooter, or other aid. Please contact us to inquire about customized tour options for guests with mobility challenges. • Saint Peter's Basilica may experience unexpected closures for religious ceremonies. In such instances, we are pleased to offer an extended tour of the Vatican Museums to our customers. While we make every effort to notify tour groups in advance of any planned disruptions to the Basilica's opening hours, this is not always possible. Consequently, we are unable to provide refunds or discounts in these cases.

Great!

Our guide was great, and we learned a lot at the Vatican. It was unclear that there was a 3 hour break in the day between tours. This worked out fine for us since our apartment was nearby, but might have been frustrating if that had not been the case. The Colosseo and Forum were incredible. It’s something everyone should see! When it was time to meet up, our guide did not fit the description we were given, nor did she hold up the sign. Again, it was unclear what was happening and when, especially since our guide in the afternoon spoke little English. All in all a good experience.

Bad

Nothing against the tour company, but the Vatican tour is really herding cattle through the multitude of museums and decorated hallways at the Vatican. I would guess there are over 100,000 people touring the Vatican at any one time. There is some quality time to see St. Peter’s basilica which is the only tour I would recommend. There is no time to spend at any one exhibit and the noise level so high it is hard to hear the guide even with an earphone system. At the coliseum the ticket merely gets you in a fast track line to fight the crowds at the colisuem

Amazing!

Our trip to both the Vatican and collesum were amazing. Especially our tour guide Luigi who took us around the Vatican, basilica and Sistine chapel. He was very friendly, funny and gave us a really detailed tour. His knowledge was incredible and he made our tour really fun, answering any questions that we had to ask. We would definitely recommend doing the Vatican tour with Luigi!
