The Complete Vatican Tour- Skip the Line included!

Ennio is a wonderful guide. A true Roman local growing up near the Vatican and visiting it frequently as a kid and a guide for 28 years - he knows it all!

The best guide we’ve ever had! Andy was extremely knowledgeable, well spoken, funny, and personable. He took much time with our group answering every question and infused humor everywhere he could. All participants seemed seemed perpetually engaged in his tour despite the blasting heat and crowds. My wife and I recommend Andy and your tour company 100%!!! Ten out of ten stars!

Outstanding!  An outstanding guide to lead you through the ages of Vatican art and history. Enio's tour showcases his great historical knowledge and insights with terrific engaging storyteller skills and a good sense of humor. He provides insights into the artists and Popes who significantly contributed to making the Vatican Museum, Sistine Chapel and St Peters Basilica so monumental over the centuries. Enio highlights the history and unique characteristics of the paintings, frescoes, sculptures and fabulous mosaics. We even  learned the fascinating story of how Michelangelo came to be chosen to paint the "Creation" and the "Last Judgement" of the Sistine Chapel and about his approach to executing such enormous works. Enio brings it all to life by telling  personal stories as well as describing the personalities of the Popes and the artists and how their intersects led to this incredible cultural experience. I highly recommend Enio to be your Vatican guide!

Ennio was spectacular. He was humorous, informative , entertaining and engaging. Highly recommend.

If there is such a thing as the perfect tour guide, Ennio is the one. Not only is he fully knowledgeable about the subject matter, but he also presents it in a very engaging manner. He is conversational and has a good sense of humor. We did not ask a question that Ennio wasn't fully prepared to answer. When we return to Rome, we will definitely ask him to guide us in other areas. We highly recommend him.

This was the first time ever to book with Tours By Locals, and we were thrilled. Ennio has been guiding tours throughout the area, not just Vatican City, for almost 30 years. Ennio's knowledge, energy and skill made for a smooth tour filled with so much information. He fielded our questions with confident knowledge. He fielded every oddball question with encyclopedic charm. We recommend Ennio, for absolutely any tour he offers. Thank you, Ennio. Our family loved spending some of precious time in Italy with you. ~ Betty
