Early morning Vatican City Tour

If you are going to Rome do yourself a favor and book your local tours with Silvia. Personable and fun, Silvia's vast education and knowledge of history and culture is extraordinary. She has a brilliant way of sharing facts and concepts in a very accessible way. She not only knows the facts of what she is showing you, she knows the security people and the other staff which is very helpful in getting the most out of the site visits. We spent a full day with Silvia at the Colosseum, Forum, Palatine Hill, Vatican and St. Peters and we felt quite privileged to be in her company. She also made a great recommendation for lunch. Highest recommendation!

Silvia gave us a wonderful private guided tour of the Vatican Museums, including the breathtaking Sistine Chapel. She is wonderfully funny and brought the history of the Vatican, the Church, Rome, and Italy to life in a way that was both informative and genuinely entertaining. What stood out most was how her storytelling stayed with us. After leaving Rome for Florence, I found myself recalling the fascinating connections she made, especially about the Medici family, which added even more depth to what we were seeing. We truly appreciated Silvia’s time, energy, and insight. If you are looking for a personalized, lively experience in Vatican City, we highly recommend her.

Silvia was very knowledgeable and congenial during our tour. She was able to guide us past the normal queues and directed us to other points of interest. Silvia was attentive to our comfort and safety. I 100% endorse her service.

Great tour, great guide and worth every penny.

Silvia was great. Very knowledgeable and her English was great. She made it easy to understand the art and what was happening in the world that influenced the art. We highly recommend Silvia and also highly recommend going on the early morning tour. We avoided lots of lines which allowed us to see more in the same amount of time.

Sylvia is a wonderful tour guide and I highly recommend her for your tours in Rome. She is a very interesting historian and kept our attention. We also didn’t have to wait in the long lines. She has a good sense of humor and she speaks English clearly and fluently. I would definitely go on another tour with her if we come back to Rome.
