We were traveling as a family with two grown-up children. Since another family had not shown up for the appointment, we were very lucky to enjoy a very private tour. Our guide Paola gave us a wonderful insight into the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel in perfect German and with a lot of humor. The background information on Michelangelo's life and the creation of the frescoes was particularly exciting. Of course, you cannot see everything in the 2-3 hours of a guided tour – that would be impossible. But we got a great first impression and learned a lot. Paola responded to all our wishes and questions and made the Vatican visit an unforgettable experience for us. Thanks for that ❤ At the end of the tour we were released into St. Peter's Basilica, which we could then explore on our own. We were even allowed to walk through the Holy Door and climbed all the way up to the dome. All in all, it was a perfect day that we will remember for a long time to come.
