Fe was our tour guide and she could not have made it better, unless we got to meet the Pope himself. We had 3 kids with us- 14, 12, and 9 girls. She kept them completely engaged and really catered to them They were asking tons of questions and she was talking to them at a level they really understood. She played both the parents and kids back and forth so everyone could be part of it. She honestly made the tour a complete success for us. We really enjoyed her time and would love to use her again for our next visit. She was that good.

But man was the Vatican packed so at times it was hard to navigate with small children. Our guide was great trying to keep our oldest (5) entertained and engaged in the tour. Was able to answer any question we had.

I loved the tour, Lisa or Alisa I can't remember her name.. She was awesome, she made this experience unique and unforgettable for my son (12) and Daughter (4) She involved them so much they felt comfortable asking question and she was able to answer all of them. My son wanted to see the prior popes were buried and she offered to show us right away. We were able to get holy water and we even got tickets to be part of the pope's audience. I think she went the extra mile to make our experience fabulous. I would recommend this tour and specially with her as a tour guide. Best investment..

There is so much to see at the Vatican that it can easily be overwhelming; but Ilaria strategically toured us through to see the highlights - specifically geared towards our kids (which still took over three hours). She kept our 6 and 9 year old boys interested throughout - which allowed my wife and i the freedom to also enjoy the tour! It's expensive, but worth it.

We booked this tour keeping in mind our 5 yr old daughter who would be having such a experience for the 1st time!AnnaLisa our guide was amazing beyond words. She kept my usually shy girl engaged for 3 full hrs! Telling her the history about the Vatican and the Sisten Chapel in story form! Playing I Spy with her to keep her engrossed and excited,drawing for her! So much so we as parents too had so much fun! AnnaLisa was very informative patient and friendly! My daughter drew her a picture as a thank you in the end! We knew my girl absorbed everything when she was talking to her grandmother and telling her some bad people killed St. Peter and buried him!!! That the pope who is higher than the king lives in the Vatican City! We could not have asked for a better guide than AnnaLisa!!! Highly recommend her!

As a mother of three, it is often difficult to take your children on tours and maintain their interest. However, our tour guide Laura did a wonderful job explaining the history of the Vatican to me and my children. She was very professional and kind to my kids. I would definitely recommend taking this tour again.

Very informative! And the guide was wonderful with the kids.. Did scavenger hunts with them and taught them at very elementary levels and really gave us time to explore without worrying about kids getting bored.
