Experience the #1 Ranked Vatican Tour

As the title suggests, this was a great tour and the awards for What a Life are well deserved. The office was welcoming even for early arrivals like us, breakfast was just right, and the staff was friendly, even before sunrise!  Being at the front of the line for entry to the museum was priceless. We did this tour at the end of a vacation that included at least 9 other tours and tour guides, and Elaine was our favorite. 

Loved this small-group walking tour. Our guide was so knowledgable about the food, culture and sites that we saw along the way. Having a small group (6 in all) made it personable and gave us the opportunity to get acquainted. We would absolutely do it again and recommend to others.

We totally enjoyed our early morning tour with Elaine. From the start with complimentary coffee and pastries to the front of the line status. Elaine made the tour fact filled yet lively. We were always a step ahead of the crowds.

Our guide was fantastic. He was passionate about the art, knowledgeable, and funny. I have a Master’s in Art History with a concentration in Italian Renaissance and I still learned a lot!

Exactly what you want for a small group tour! Great tour-mates (I think there were 8 people total). Captivating, passionate tour guide, and great access to the sites! Organized and efficient but with absolutely no rushing. Matteo is very knowledgeable and engaging; great to listen to!

Unbelievable tour! Our guide, Giuliano, was outstanding. His knowledge and mannerisms were so impressive. Our tour lasted roughly 3 hours, during which we were completely engaged. My wife and I loved every minute of this tour. 

Our guide Carlotta was excellent! Going underneath the “back stage” of the Colosseum was one of our most interesting tours! The information Carlotta gave was incredible. She really brought the Colosseum to life!

Our guide Elaine provided us with a fantastic informative tour of the Vatican. The early access is highly recommended. You really do get in before the crowds. The breakfast was amazing and certainly kept us going through the tour. Highly recommend and will definitely return to see more of the Vatican, hopefully with Elaine as our guide as she was amazing.

Elaine was AMAZING!!! She was very funny and great with kids as well as beyond knowledgable!!! She was able to answer every question and was super kind! We really enjoyed her prep talk about the Sistine Chapel and we knew exactly what we were looking at!!!! Highly recommend the tour!!! We had no crowds inside!!!!

The entire staff were amazing! Espressos made to order. We were in a small group with Giuliano - very intelligent, personable and knowledgeable. Best tour guide we’ve had! First class organization. Look no further, this is the tour company you want. Believe me, as I am selective and these guys were exceptional.

We had Carlotta on our small group tour of 10. She is exceptional and so knowledgeable! She kept our group moving and made our tour a real learning experience. There were two young kids in our group and she was great with them. All in all I would definitely recommend this tour. They were good with communication, personable and fun.
