Una experiencia fantastica. Apreciar la capilla sixtina sin gente es apabullante, un silencio que te atrapa. tuve la oportunidad de visitarla mas tarde y el bullicio era insoportable.No podria decir que hay algo que no me gusta de esta actividad.Son esas cosas que no debemos dejar de hacer en la vida Incluso los servicios en el interior y recorrido del paseo son de excelencia. el restaurante no tiene precios excesivos.

The date I picked was the 15th August 2015. The date I was given on my ticket was the 14th august. I found out that the Vatican was actually closed on the 15th and that's why I was given a different date. Unfortunately, although it was on the ticket, I assumed that It would read what I had booked and ended up missing the Vatican tour and wasting my money. I did a collesseum tour too and there was a party of 5 with us who were told that even though they had paid, they would have to wait to see if anyone else showed up first because grey line had over booked. Luckily for them there were a few no shows (potentially their dates were also involuntarily changed!) and they got to do the tour but it was actually uncomfortable for everyone that they were made feel like that despite pre paying on booking and it definitely spoiled it for them.
