Mga tour sa Vatican Museums

Si Julian na tour guide ay nakakatawa at marami siyang alam tungkol sa mga lugar, binibigyan niya talaga ng oras ang bawat isa sa grupo na matapos kumuha ng litrato bago lumipat sa susunod na lugar.

Isa ito sa mga pinakamagandang tour na naranasan ko sa Vatican City. Sa kasamaang palad, wala ang tour guide; nagbigay sila ng mga tiket sa pamamagitan ng SMS. Kinailangan naming gamitin ang mga tiket at mag-navigate nang mag-isa. Para sa Basilika ni San Pedro, hindi kami pinayagang gumamit ng mga tiket na skip-the-line dahil wala ang guide, kaya kinailangan naming maghintay. Sa kabuuan, naging magandang karanasan ito, bagama't sa tingin ko ay maaaring kailangan nilang pagbutihin ang kanilang serbisyo. Kung hindi, maayos naman ang lahat.

Ang aming paglilibot sa Museo ng Vatican ay talagang kamangha-mangha, salamat sa aming napakagaling na gabay, si Loreta. Siya ay may kaalaman, madamdamin, at binuhay niya ang kasaysayan sa pamamagitan ng mga kamangha-manghang kuwento at pananaw. Ang kanyang mga paliwanag ay nagdagdag ng napakalaking lalim sa sining at arkitektura — lalo na sa Sistine Chapel. Lubos na inirerekomenda ang paglilibot na ito, at kung maaari, hilingin si Loreta!

Our guide was terrific. Not only did she masterfully guide us through the chaotic crowds, but she also offered very insightful and interesting commentary throughout on the art, architecture, and history of the museum and Cathedral.

Matiyaga at propesyonal na guide. Nakatipid ng maraming oras sa pag-explore sa lugar. Nagkaroon ng pagkakataong makadaan sa banal na pinto. Lubos itong irerekomenda.

Ito ay isang napakagandang tour pero nakakapagod talaga. Maghanda para sa maraming lakaran at tumayo sa buong tagal. Ang tour guide ay may malawak na kaalaman. Ang tour ay medyo mahal at nagsisimula nang maaga para maiwasan ang maraming tao. Ang lakad mula sa meeting place papunta sa vatican museum ay medyo malayo rin. Pagkatapos ng vatican museum, dadalhin ka ng guide sa saint peter’s basilica.

Ilaria was an exceptional guide during our Vatican museums and Sistine Chapel tour. From the moment we met her, her enthusiasm for art and history was contagious. My history geek heart was so amazed by her. She expertly navigated us through the vast collections, sharing fascinating stories and insights. She made our visit to Vatican an unforgettable one. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Meet up was easy. I received an email 2 days before the tour regarding instructions on where to meet up and how to find the guides. Audio set were provided. The rest of our group did not show up hence we were treated to a private guided tour of the Vatican instead. We enjoyed our tour with our guide, Assunta from Ecotour. I was with my senior parents and she was very patient and accommodating of my parents. There was a long line going inside the Vatican but we were able to skip the lines through our guide. There was a lot of walking involved so make sure to bring water and use the restroom when you can. Our guide was very knowledgable. She explained the history of the Vatican, important works of art. The tour does not include St. peter's basilica since it is free but she guided us to the entrance. Overall, we had a lot of fun. Great value for money.
