I'm disappointed not to remember the name of our tour guide as she was excellent. Very knowledgable and guided us at a nice pace to allow pictures and time to take in the wonderful sights.
The experience was very good, but we're very disappointed regarding the 'school of athens'. GetYourGuide indicate the 'Raffaello rooms' are available for the visit in the morning, and we choose this tour for this, but the guide says they are not included. GetYourGuide indicate them, and also this tour reports 'Hear the stories behind the renowned School of Athens' but it's not true! There are no Raffaello rooms and no School of Athens. The visit and the guide were almost perfect, but we choose to pay double other experiences because the Raffaello rooms, and we didn't see them.
An extraordinary and fascinating experience that exceeded every expectation. The Vatican Museums are a true gem of art and history, boasting a vast collection that spans centuries of artistic magnificence. Thanks to doooing for the excellent tour organization, truly attentive to every detail.
My four star totally give to the attraction itself, the guider get zero. The museum and the churches are stunning. But as I booked a SKIP the LINE ticket with english guided tour, which supplied by Viator, tour operated by City Rome Tours, and the guider Jad has his own plan, just led the group passed by the museum through main corridors, even skipped the Stanze di Raffaello, which is a Must-See of the museum. And for the exhibition, Jad also has no words to say, to introduce. except “jars jars….many jars” or something like this. I hope next time someone guided by Jad can learn more information from him. I had to quit the guided tour with Jad and back to the museum by myself, to see the amazing arts Jad avoided.
We had visited once before without a guide, and the experience was much more enjoyable with a guide to help us make sense of everything. Our guide Maria Rosaria, was obviously very knowledgeable. She seemed to have a background in art history, so the tour felt slightly academic while finding the right balance of being light and fun.
This tour was great! Our guide was fantastic (unfortunately do not remember her name), but she guided us through the art and history without overwhelming us with too much information. The tour was informative and enjoyable. Well worth the money!
It was a great experience, guide was funny and explanations were interactive. We were a mixed group of 15. Meeting point well explained and really follow the advise to come early, some people were late and that's notnice for the ones waiting.
Guide was pleasant and knowledgeable, the only complaint was he talked fast and not quite good english.
We had an excellent tour, the guide, lady Giuliana, was very professional and kind. She explained everything during the visit and she did it with passion. While you were listen to her it felt like you where enveloped in all that art with her way of talking. I can only recommend this tour to everyone.
Simply amazing tour. We are from the other side of the world and we were lucky to find a company like doooing who helped us and a guide like laura who was very kind in explaining everything there was to know about the vatican museums. I repeat: creepy experience, superb organization! PS: the sistine chapel experience was insane.
We have a really nice and full of informations guide who made our tour really interesting one. Been to Vatican and Sistine Chapel
Very interesting visit especially thanks to the guide Paolo Soro who has a thorough knowledge of the Vatican museums and the Sistine Chapel and a captivating way of explaining. I cannot give the highest grade just because we paid for a tour that should also include the entrance to St. Peter’s Basilica with a guided tour while we were told only after payment that this part of the tour was not included due to an error on the site (which as far as I know has not yet been fixed thus misleading users). This, however, is not due to the guide that I want to reiterate is really competent
Guide très sympa et très cultivée son nom Raffaella CANTONI très professionnelle elle a bien expliqué malgré le monde
Just yesterday my husband, I and other friends took the guided tour of the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel. It was a wonderful experience, in addition to the wonders we were able to see, I must say that the Doooing staff was very kind and punctual, the guide Giuliana was very good and very knowledgeable. Really recommended!
The guide was competent and experienced, the small group allowed us to follow the visit with greater attention. The organization of the visit was good from an administrative point of view. Fast contacts via whatsapp.
terrible experience, the guide was Giuliana, there were 19 of us and no one could hear well with the audio guide, she spoke slowly, we saw the Vatican museums quickly, the explanations inside the basilica were not very detailed and rushed.
I make this review to highlight how the tour guide provided by Doooing was the key to making this experience truly memorable. I underline this because it is not often you find a young man or woman with such a passion for art and history. doooing transformed the visit from a simple tour to a real cultural immersion. His expertise and ability to communicate in an engaging way made every detail of the Vatican Museums' works of art fascinating and accessible to everyone in the group and especially to my family. Thank you
I had the opportunity to book a tour of the Vatican Museums through the Doooing travel agency (recommended by a friend of mine) and I must say that it was an amazing experience. From the beginning, I noticed how professional and organized they were. Booking was quick and easy, and the staff was extremely helpful in answering my questions and providing all the information I needed. The "skip the line" is an essential service considering - in fact - that the queue is often very long and that it was raining. Top.
I wanted to return with my family and children to use this agency to visit the Vatican museums. what can I say: emotion through the roof. We took many photos and had the opportunity to ask many questions to the guide who turned out to be professional
first time in my life that I visit the Vatican museums. Unforgettable experience with top-level organization. good good good
the guides of this agency are truly top level. I travel very often and have hardly found similar preparation. for the rest... what can I say. Unique experience in a magical place. but if you've never been there before, I absolutely recommend doooing because they are very well prepared and then there's the skip-the-line option which doesn't hurt. Thank you!
Highly professional guide GIULIANA, very knowledgeable and well organized in carrying out the tour...excellent organisation. 5 star experience
Visit with my wife, beautiful experience from every point of view. I had already been to her for the first time. that he will never forget. We had a great time with this agency made up of passionate and professional people
Unfortunately I can only give a 5 star review. Because the experience was unique from all points of view and for this reason I would like to underline the professionalism of the guide who accompanied us on a journey "out of this world" truly in the midst of art and history. BEAUTIFUL
Many years ago I had already done a similar tour but the organization given by the doooing guys impressed me in a superlative way. Then, obviously, the Vatican Museums do the rest. But I can assure you that there is a way and way to see them. Top service
Mrs. Giuliana is an excellent guide, highly trained, attentive to every detail, precise, pleasant, passionate about her work, she puts the visitor at ease without ever lacking professionalism. Highly recommended. Very reliable agency Raffaella and Fausto Prov.Monza Brianza
Thrilling experience with great organization and a highly trained guide. I will go back with my children
I wanted to do the tour a second time, I'm from Rome, with my wife. the experience was once again thrilling and for this I once again want to thank doooing and all its wonderful staff.
Today we did the guided tour with doooing and it was a very interesting experience thanks to the seriousness of the organization and to our guide, Giuliana who, with her interesting narration, accompanied us on one of the most interesting routes of our Roman stay. Daniela
The experience I had inside the Vatican Museums I think is absolutely unique in some ways. At least I think so. With my family we were able to observe real masterpieces up close and I want to emphasize the skill of the guide who in this sense helped us a lot to understand everything we saw. I leave this review to recommend this experience. Because it's really worth it!
Unforgettable experience with my girlfriend. I want to thank the guide who was exceptional in telling us everything we saw in great detail
first experience of my life in such a place. the guides were great at explaining everything we wanted to know and the organization of the tour - in general - seemed really professional. I really enjoyed everything, money well spent
I went on this tour with my family and it was great. Exciting all the way with the guide who manages to clear up any doubt. In general, however, I can say that the location is amazing. 5 stars
Thrill tour for the experience that really leaves you speechless. My children who usually get bored in this kind of experiences, were delighted and intrigued! I'd love to come back: I'll definitely try other doooing guys tours
A beautiful experience that I will hardly forget. Together with my family I have experienced this tour and I recommend it to all those who would like to experience a unique emotion inside the Vatican museums. Thanks a lot also to the guide, super-prepared
Unique experience, amazing emotion and first-class organization. I had already visited the Vatican Museums as a child, seeing them today - with a guide - is a different matter. congratulations to doooing for the way in which it is treated such a delicate place and full of history
first time at the Vatican museums. great emotion. everything fantastic. I do this review because I wanted to compliment the guides of this agency who are fantastic, kind and above all very informed.
The organization of these tours deserves a review with high marks. I say this because I have done several and never before like this time I was moved by what I saw (thanks to the Museums) and the way in which things were exposed to me (total thanks to the guides). Thank you thank you thank you! 5 STARS DESERVED!
Bad experience! Unserious and unreliable agency! Would not recommend it! Incomplete tour of the Vatican Museums; we skipped the visit to Raphael's Rooms. When I asked the guide for an explanation, he replied that it was not included in the ticket purchased, which is not true! I made a complaint to know the reasons and to have at least a partial refund of the ticket price, but the Agency refused replying that that day the Raphael Rooms were closed, done this, denied by the secretariat of the Vatican Museums! In short, a full-blown scam!!!
The owner of Doooing managed our reservation directly with professionalism, despite having been entered by a generic portal. I had the opportunity to accompany my elderly parents with such serenity. We were accompanied by Giuliana, a competent, patient and experienced guide. They were so indulged in our times: the result was a wide, exhaustive and ... exciting visit! To be repeated to continue our discovery of Rome on the next occasions
The experience was nothing short of wonderful. Needless to tell you about what Rome has to offer but as I always say in life what makes the difference is the way we live everything. The guys at Doooing proved to be super-competent as well as passionate about their work. They made me live an incredible afternoon immersed in the beauty of a unique masterpiece of humanity such as the Sistine Chapel and the Vatican Museums. For this reason, I put 5 stars to my review
I liked the professionalism of the guide. Really super-positive experience. I recommend it. PS: we were with 2 children who were amazed at the wonders they showed us!
We decided to go back on a tour with this agency after we had already used it in May last year. This time we chose the tour of the Vatican museums and the satisfaction was still 5 stars. Really thanks to the operators for the fantastic day. PS: driving was super
Amazing experience, to leave you speechless. I did this tour with my husband and 2 children who were amazed: the guide was just great and revealed some incredible details. Worth the price of the ticket!!!
Excellent organization, fantastic tour!!!! I recommend you to book in time because this agency is among the most quoted in Rome!!
Damiana fantastic driving!! Competent nice and very well organized despite the 30,000 people present at the museums that day!
Extraordinary tour that I never expected to live after so many years in Rome. Guided by a really talented professional, we discovered hidden corners of the Sistine Chapel and beyond. I had never used this agency and I must say I will probably do it again for another tour, GREAT!
