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.

The itinerary is great and you can skip the queue which is very important in summer! The only small drawback is that the guide's microphone may sound a bit difficult when paired with headphones.

Peak season tickets are very difficult to obtain. Although the ticket price on the platform is relatively expensive, it is a good choice for tourists with high uncertainty about their itinerary.
