Private St Peter's Tour | Dome & Papal Tombs Reviews

A good family experience

LivItaly was very professional in their communication and booking with them was very easy and painless.. We did the St Peter's tour with Luca. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and flexible. Our teenage children loved his enthusiasm and really enjoyed the tour. The private tour was perfect for our family to have a personal experience and not have to worry about the crowds. The kids loved going to the top of the dome! Thank you LivItaly for making our visit perfect.

Well worth it

This tour does skip the line and we were so happy it did! Seeing all of those people waiting to go through security so that they could enter into the church made us realize how fortunate we were to have chosen this tour. Our guide was super informative and fun and filled us with more details than we could ever remember. Up on the top of the dome, we had an awesome view and took tons of pictures. It was great to have a guide with us to point out the various monuments so that we knew what we were looking at. This is a great tour and well worth every cent!

Just brilliant!

My mother and I have both been to the Vatican museum so we decided to concentrate, this trip, on St. Peter's. Our tour with Rafaella was brilliant and it was everything we had hoped for. We met in the square and then entered easily into the church, despite the long lines of people waiting outside. Rafaella was full of history and great stories to share and we enjoyed every minute with her. She made this a highlight of our trip to Rome.

So happy with this tour

We did this tour on 31 December and we were so glad we chose this private, skip the line tour! The Basilica was so crowded and closed early so we would not have been able to see it otherwise. Our guide Marzia was really knowledgeable, made the tour so interesting and alive and answered all of our questions. She gave us a good introduction to the Vatican when we first met and then, once inside, she navigated us through the crowd and made sure we got the full experience. The visit up to the top of the Dome was spectacular. I highly recommend this tour!

Private St. Peter's tour

We were so happy we had booked a private tour to see the Vatican. Our tour guide, Valentina, was excellent! Very knowledgeable, enthusiastic and did an outstanding job of giving us relevant and interesting information. Her knowledge and communication skills made this an awesome experience for us. The tour included going up to the top of the Dome and also a visit underneath St. Peter's to see the papal tombs. Excellent experiences made even better with Valentina's guidance and insights. We highly recommend her and LivTours - we will definitely use this company again!

Loved this private tour

Luca’s energy, enthusiasm and knowledge was contagious. He was patient with all our questions and flexible, allowing us as much time as we wanted in the Sistine Chapel and in other areas that we were really interested in. We were so glad we “splurged” for the private tour. It made the whole experience more personal and exclusive which made a huge difference to us.
