5.00Very knowledgeable guide! The wait in line was long, as expected, but she made the time seem to pass quickly with information about the history of the Vatican and Rome. She helped us find great seats and we were able to view the Pope as he passed by our location twice before the audience.
Left behind and out of luck

1.00It was during rush hour so the subway was late, the walk from subway station was a 20 minute walk. I got to meeting point 5 minutes late so I was left behind. I kept texting and trying to call the tour guide and got an answer or a call back. I ended up going by myself and luckily I was able to get in with the voucher that I printed out. It would have been nice to get in touch with the tour guide to get the experience that I paid for.
Poor planning

3.00The tour guy was very pleasant but she needs to change the meeting place. It was too far away from the entrance and by the time we got into the seating area you had to fight for seats. I took this same tour last year with Viator and we meet at. 6:30am All the way in the front on the left side. And had amazing seats.
Okay

5.00Even though we had to pay a small fee for this event when, in fact, you can arrive for free, it was worth it to be sooooo close to the Pope. We were 4 rows from him when he rode by.

5.00We were able to see the Pope drive by, it was an emotional event for me since I am Catholic. I was so amazed at the various pilgrims from all over the world. It was a cultural experience, plus how fluently the Pope spoke each language. I attended with Jewish friends that enjoyed it as well.
Unbelievable
