Jeremy was amazing. He was able to move our group around several times to keep us within viewing of the various parts of the ceremony. Offered so much history as well. So glad we didn't just try to go on our own since we'd have missed so much.

Vatican Museum Experience
It was a crowded day. We got in at our specified time for our unguided tour. We were using Pop guide for information. We walked through the museum trying to absorb as much as we can. We reached the Sistine Chapel where a priest came out to say prayers for the Pope and offered confessions and blessings to those who wanted them. We were the third pair to recieve blessings and after that, we spent some time soaking in the work of Michelangelo before heading out for some needed refreshments.

Fantastic tour!
Our tour guide, Rita Tostello, was fantastic. She absolutely made the palace and the basilica come to life and perfectly paced the tour. This is a must for anyone visiting Venice!

This was a lovely way to see the islands. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. We especially loved the little island of Burano.

Good tour if you are 4+ days in paris
I liked the place. I think if you have done everything in Paris you should consider this tour. Ash and Asma were our tour guides. They conducted the tour well.

Could be better
The views during the trip were awesome. The people organizing the tour do their best to accommodate you. Special shoutout to Fernanda who was our tour guide at Montepulciano. A couple of things to keep in mind -it is not a max of 25 people, we had over 40 people on our bus. The only time you’re in a group of 25 is during the tour of Montepulciano. -the larger sized groups makes every stop or transition take much longer than necessary.

Perfect Private Day Trip from Rome – Pompeii, Amalfi Coast & Positano with Incredible Guides!
We did the private tour for our group of six, and it was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Daniel, our driver and guide, picked us up right from our Airbnb, which made everything super convenient—and dropped us back at the end of the day, too. The entire experience was smooth, fun, and thoughtfully tailored to our interests. Our private tour of Pompeii with Riccardo was a highlight—he was engaging, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the history of the site (plus a local expert, which made it even better!). Daniel went above and beyond to customize the day for us: he made multiple scenic stops for photos, took us to a delightful limoncello factory, drove through the picturesque town of Amalfi, and brought us to a stunning mountaintop viewpoint overlooking Sorrento and Naples that we’ll never forget. If you’re considering a day trip from Rome, this one is a no-brainer. Highly recommend!

A good sample of Pompeii and Vesuvius, but rushed.
The tour was as described. Our guide, Claire, did a great job keeping us together and informed of our itinerary. It all felt very rushed. Even though we skipped a rest stop en route to Pompeii, we had a short time to find a restroom when we arrived. Our tour of Pompeii was less than two hours and we also had less the two hours to hike Mt. Vesuvius. There was very little time to read the interpretive signs along the way and to enjoy the view before having to rush down the trail ( slippery with loose gravel). In between, we stopped for the included lunch which was very good. On the way down, the bus stopped for about 45 minutes at a shop selling souvenirs. The owner was very nice, there were free alcoholic beverage samples, and it felt like there was an obligation to make a purchase. I would rather have had more time at Pompeii and to hike. On the way back, Claire shared some recommendations and local insights, which were appreciated. Overall, a long day with a good sample of Pompeii but not enough time to enjoy the hike.

Well organised, fuss free once in a lifetime experience
This is a well organised and enjoyable tour of the Vatican. The meet up spot is easy to find and it helps to have the skip the line ticket as the queue can be very long otherwise. The guide was knowledgeable and pleasant and made sure we got to see all the highlights. The Vatican is a whirlwind. There is so much to see you’d need days, weeks even to see everything in detail. Going on your own would give you more time to slowly walk around and look at things in more detailed, but with the crowds I’m not sure how much slower Yoh could go. It could also be quite overwhelming without a guide due to the sheer volume of sculptures, ornate ceilings, paintings, tapestry’s etc to see. This was a once in a lifetime opportunity and I highly recommend this tour for a well organised, fuss free way to explore the Vatican.

Cool castles, big group
The trip was great 5 stars, my notes do not mean to discourage. This trip is about getting from A-B with minimal planning on my side. I was unhappy based on the size (47 people) of the trip. I randomly sat in the middle of the bus, so I had 0 access to the guides throughout the trip, they were super cool and I wish I had a better opportunity to speak with them and ask questions . I wish we had a bit more time for lunch, and would have been happy retuning later. The designations themselves were super cool and was very happy with the decision. A smart man once said journey before destination, and I agree. Overall happy I did it, but if you’re in Paris for less than 5 days it could not be worth your time. The wine tasting was also rushed and a bit lame.

How do you do the Louvre...
How do you do the Louvre in 3 hours-you take a tour and hit the highlights. Our guide did a wonderful job showing us the most famous pieces and lesser known works and sharing the stories behind the Louvre. This was a perfect overview.

Beautiful Castles!
We had a wonderful time with James and Goran on this tour. The guides provided some historical and geographical information but also gave out some excellent restaurant ideas. Steve was a fantastic driver for this long journey. It is a large coach bus so be prepared to see a great bus driver in action on the narrow roads. Please keep in mind that it is a very long full day with quite a bit of time spent traveling to get to Loire Valley. We hoped that it would not rain on us but, unfortunately, it did so always check the forecast and come prepared. There is one rest stop each direction for restroom use and food/drink purchases. Keep in mind that you are on a tour with a lot of other people so be on time. If you are late at any of the stops, it puts the whole tour behind. You may also have to be left behind! We didn’t get to walk Blois too much since everything was closed by the time we finished lunch. In general, there is a lot of walking and stairs. The roads are rocky and cobblestoned so wear appropriate shoes. We did feel rushed at the castles and would have loved to stroll around more leisurely but we were on a tight schedule. You are allowed to walk the castle and grounds on your own so just keep an eye on the time. The rain and the rushing made it feel more stressful but overall we were happy we did it.

Murano and Burano….two beautiful island towns and a wonderful tour guide!
What a great tour of two beautiful towns/islands. We really enjoyed the glass blowing exhibition on Murano, and the amazingly beautiful town of Burano. Our tour guide, Serena, was terrific. Very knowledgeable and kind.

Poor value
Poor value. Dumped on a line which took 10 mins to get inside, despite paying to skip the queue. Staff did not accompany group. Tour was on a phone app with own headphones. Technology was unreliable, no signal in many parts of Vatican museum including Sistine Chapel.

Great experience, booking needs more clarity
Great way to see the Vatican in a time crunch. The tour guide was good but could have been a bit more vivid. The tour didnt mention anything about passports for children, please bring passports for your children to confirm their ages. While it says no back packs, you can actually and there are measurements posted online. I wish they would have mentioned this, luckily we had the passports. At the end you can go up to the top of st. Peters dome but thats extra $$ and the line took about an hour (and this was offseason). I wish they would have posted this. Overall great experience and recommend it
