Review of Rome’s early Vatican tour, with small-group access, Sistine Chapel highlights, practical tips, value, crowds, and booking advice.
“We were so very lucky to get Elaine as our Vatican guide, she has a passion for her job and it shines in how she is able to explain the artwork and events that have happened in the Vatican. 10/10 for the morning, she did a great job of getting us in quickly and that helped out so much with the crowds. She is from the UK and with us from America that helped with being able to understand her English which was very helpful. She is full of little bits of knowledge that I am sure very few know which made for a wonderful tour.”

“If the weather is not good, you're not the hiking explorer or simply don't wanna deal with planning and transportation, this option will suit you fine, pick up from Catania and a 40 min drive to Etna. Your driver and guide will update you with all the volcanic knowledge needed, details and history of the place. It's a 9 out of 10 for me, it was a great experience.”

“The trip was amazing! The places shown and the stops along the way were truly special! Being alone on this trip, the group was very friendly and interactive! Also, the guide explained everything to us not only in english but also in other languages, so that the language barrier wouldn’t be an obstacle in discovering the beauty of the volcano. Raji is very dedicated and had great recommendations, the best guide! It was truly an extraordinary experience❤️🫶🏻🫶🏻🤌🏼”
Venice morning walking tour review: see St. Mark’s, hidden lanes, Doge landmarks, and local history with a guide for $29.
“Our guide was great, we learned a lot about the city and the tour was just the right amount of time. Even little thingS you wouldn’t noticed at first become evident as the tour guide points them out to you.... super cool experience and highly recommended. We even had the tour while the high tie was in which was a good reflection of the tour company (not to cancel)”

“The scenery was beautiful and interesting but it was our fantastic guide/driver who made the tour so terrific. Danielle was very knowledgeable about the volcanic actions and history of Etna and he was able to instill a sense of humor into the stories he told which made it even more enjoyable. In addition to the great guide, we had the pleasure of spending the day together with a very nice group of people from several parts of the world. We ended the tour with lunch and wine at a small winery where we were seated outside so we got to enjoy the scenery and beautiful weather. Overall, we had a…”
Review of LivTours’ early Sistine Chapel tour, with small groups, expert guides, Vatican highlights, timing tips, and honest value advice.
“Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. The meeting location was good but the organization was a little chaotic. We thought the meeting place would be convenient because it was a coffee shop but it's a little misleading because ALL the tours meet there. (Coffee shop is expensive 35€ for 2 coffees and 2 donuts). They do provide you with a headset. The quality of the sound wasn't great. Also it eludes to "you're going to be one of the 1st in at 8am. You're not. You go in with everyone else and you're in the same line as everyone else. The only reason I gave the tour 5 stars is…”

“We got to the location from the coordinates from the booking. We did reach out to let them know we were at the pick up location. As the time got closer we asked if we were in the right place. After the time came and went, we were told the group was picked up. There boat slips on both sides of the building. We were on the wrong side but no one tried to contact us and no refund for the error.”
