Climb to top was worth it, but honestly if you are claustrophobic don't attempt the climb. Otherwise go for it

Wir haben die Tour für 8:30 Uhr am 6.1.2023 auf Englisch gebucht.
Wie es sich gehört, waren wir 15 Minuten vorher beim Treffpunkt und haben extra das Frühstück im Hotel ausgelassen.
Nachdem wir und ca 15 andere Touristen über 30 Minuten gewartet haben und kein Tourguide gekommen ist, sind wir nach mehrmaligem kontaktieren der Hotline von Viator und der Hotline des direkten Anbieters wieder gegangen. Es stellte sich heraus, dass die Tour nicht stattfindet, da am 6.1. ein Feiertag in Italien ist und deshalb keine Touren in den Vatikan dürfen. Leider konnte uns das der Anbieter nicht selbst mitteilen.
Wir waren sehr enttäuscht und traurig, dass wir an unserem letzten Urlaubstag den Vatikan nicht von innen sehen konnten.
Der einzig Positive daran war, dass das Geld noch am gleichen Tag rücküberwiesen wurde..
