Spectacular

Ava, was a great guide and very informative, however, there was a bit of waiting and standing around. Price should include the entry tickets to the museum and not have to pay an extra 23 euros each on top of price already paid.

Our tour guide's passion for history and art were boundless.

We stayed in a apartment off Via Veneto and the owner recommended ItalyXP for any tours. It was an excellent choice for us. Rachele was knowledgable, kind and organized throughout the Vatican tour. She kept everything moving and interesting at every point. Her ability to add context to all that you are seeing makes it a much more meaningful experience. Imagine our delight when we showed up at the Colosseum/Forum tour a few days later and Rachele was our guide again! Fantastico!
