If you want to feel like cattle or sheep this is the place to go. Studied art history and was looking forward to seeing the Sistine Chapel but by the time we got there all I wanted to do was leave. It's like a maze with an incredible amount of steps. The halls leading up to the Chapel are loaded... More

Cattle herded for a financial slaughter. Could not really enjoy the art due to the unsafe crowding into very tight areas. The art is amazing but you get the sense that it is all about exploiting the art and church for money. The biblical reference to money changers in the church comes mind. Gift shops were quite numerous selling just... More

To see the Vatican Museums is a totally awesome experience. The history, the art the ambiance is amazing. Definately try to go when it is not summer as it can be very busy and also very hot. A tour guide is a must as they have so much information to offer and thus the experience become memorable.

We visited as part of a group on a pre-booked tour. It was awful. Far too many people - we couldn''t walk properly but had to shuffle, there were so many people. I had been so looking forward to this. Our guide was a young woman who looked and sounded as though she wanted to be anywhere else other than... More

Be sure to book on line to skip all long lines and save the most $ for this once in a lifetime experience! We had reserved a 1pm time in May 2013 and walked right in paid $40 euro for 2 people and did not have to wait in any lines and be sure to buy the headsets that give... More

I don't think anyone can argue about the art and historical treasures in the Vatican Museums yet watching those was impossible during our visit. Although we ordered the guided tour tickets online and skipped the amazingly long lines to enter the museums, we've found ourselves among thousands of other visitors, not being able to move, can hardly follow our guide...

I went to selectitaly.com before we left on our trip to buy tickets to the museum and Sistine Chapel. Turned out to be a very good move for two reasons: 1. the line to get into the museum was about 1/2 mile long and 2. I had printed out the wrong email, s we were refused entry when we got... More

You definitely need to book online a tour to visit the Vatican museum, Sistine chapel and St. Peters basilica, the line to get in here is one mile long if you don't pre-book. Stunning is the only word to describe the Museum!! There is the most impressive art collections in the world.

This place is amazing and huge. I think there is not enough money in the world for all the works of art that reside there. You go from room to room and each one is more breathtaking than the other. We were a party of 7 people, 4 adults a and 3 girls ages: 10, 9 and 4. We reserved... More
