    5 Stars Once in a life time oppurtunity Review with images 08/08/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Surreal, limited crowd

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Getting there

    My brother in law is Italian & his name is Giuseppe, for the past ten years he has worked & lived in England but previous to that he lived & worked in Rome, Italy. This meant that we often travelled to Italy for family holidays & Giuseppe would take the time & trouble to show us around his proud city. He started by taking us to all the tourist attractions & then followed by places the tourists know little about. Each time we visited them it was like a challenge to him to find something more interesting. On one visit in 1990 he exceeded all expectations. He secured four tickets to see the Pope ... more

    5 Stars Vatican, Rome - just go there! Review with images 22/09/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Historically unique, stunning artwork, cool Popemobiles!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Queues in high season

    Where to start with the Vatican? Firstly, it is a must-see in Rome. You simply can’t go to Rome and not say you’ve been to the Vatican. We bought our tickets online as we had been advised to do so. The cost was €15 each plus a ‘reservation fee’ of €4 per person. We did feel the fee was a bit steep, but had been told the queues were ridiculous, especially in high season. It was August so we decided to suck it up and pay the fee. You can also choose which time of day you will be visiting during the booking process. The Vatican is about 5km from the centre of Rome – a short train ride. It would ... more

    5 Stars The Vatican 27/06/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Must-go for catholics

    Disadvantages Disadvantages No

    As a Catholic, going to Vatican is like going to Mecca for Muslims or the Ganges for the Hindus. It's been my dream since my baptism. The Vatican's 44 hectares of land make it the smallest state in the world but the biggest tourist attraction. It is an independent state and the headquarter of the Catholic church and home to the current Pope. The Vatican museum is a must-go when visiting Vatican. It contains the finest classical and Renaissance art and Greek and Roman antique. After the museum, the next most amazing place to visit is the Sistine's Chapel. It is famous for the Michaelangelo's ... more

    5 Stars Sistine Chapel 04/08/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Gorgeous

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Can't spend long enough in there

    The Sistine Chapel is one of the most amazing places I have ever been to. It is said that Michelangelo spent several years lying on his back painting the frescoes which cover the ceiling and I can well believe it. It is a real shame that we cannot get close enough to the ceiling to see the mastery of his brushstrokes although the view we do get is breathtaking. I had to content myself with buying lots of postcards from the Vatican shop and a book on the Sistine Chapel when I got home as it really is something that you want to hold to you and keep. Unfortunately no one is allowed to take ... more

    5 Stars Lovely but tiring! 17/07/2000
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Gorgeous artwork

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Enormous!

    Did you know that the Vatican City is actually a country in it's own right!? This is one of the interesting facts that you will discover when visiting the Vatican and wishing to mail your postcards home. The home of the Sistine Chapel, the Vatican is absolutely enormous! I wholeheartedly recommend a pair of sensible shoes as you will do a lot of walking! Also - go off-peak! I went in May when it was meant to be fairly quiet although the tourist season was starting to hot up and I was constantly trapped different groups of foreign tourists trying to keep track of the right colour umbrella their ... more
