Star rating:

The garden tour was worth it, just be informed that you don’t get off the little bus and walk around. You listen to an audio in different languages on the bus. The rest of the tour is entry to the Vatican Museums. Some things that made me reduce the score: - the tour length says 4 hours but the garden bus tour was less than an hour. The rest is on your own in the museums, no guide. That is fine but it’s misleading. If someone was trying to schedule another tour it’s way off. - our guide was maybe having a bad day on a Saturday and with the crowds. She didn’t introduce herself. She seemed to have trouble getting tickets, we had a really long wait. She didn’t explain the audio system in the bus at all, and she completely disappeared at the end of the tour so we realized she was done. Didn’t hang around for questions. I would still recommend the tour for the gardens.
