VIP Pristine Sistine Tour & Vatican Palace Breakfast

The tour and guide were excellent but I would not pay a premium for any tour labeled early entry, Pristine Sistine, etc. This was our second walks tour after paying a premium where there was no early entry.

I believe that the VIP Pristine Sistine tour is the best way to visit the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, and St. Peter's Basilica. It allows you to avoid the long entry lines and gives you valuable information as you tour. In addition, the tour takes you on a short cut from the Sistine Chapel directly to the Basilica without having to go outside and walk around to St. Peter's entrance/security check/etc. The breakfast was a nice added bonus. While the pace through the Museum was pretty fast (I would have loved to have spent a bit more time with the antiquities) and there were a few things at St. Peter's that I missed, overall the tour was quite worthwhile. Julia was a very knowledgeable, interesting guide with a good sense of humor. If it is possible to request her, I would.

Excellent tour of the Vatican with breakfast. Loved our guide and we learned so much!

If anyone would want to visit those sites i would definitely recommend early access and skip the line -otherwise you really cannot enjoy them, as they are too crowded and you will waste your time waiting in the queue. Our guide was excellent , and she realy tried to also keep our 7-year-old son interested, even if he was very tired in the end. I wouldn't recommend the breakfast though, it was surely not worth it - very poor quality, we were all stacked in a plain cafeteria due to the rain and the food was nothing special.
