10 Multi-day Tours in Vatican City That You Shouldn't Miss

April 7, 2022 Jacquiline Darosa

Sure, Vatican City is tiny—110 acres—but it houses the world's largest Catholic church (St. Peter's Basilica) and has perhaps the best collection of artistic masterpieces in the world (the Sistine Chapel, Michelangelo's Pieta, the Laocoon Group, etc.). And maybe only 800 people live here, but one of them's the Pope. It's a pretty good argument for quality over quantity.

The tour with Francesco was excellent he clearly is an expert on Roman culture, history and antiquities. We were able to navigate through the large crowds with Francesco’s expertise and we penetrated the inner bowels of the arena. Throughout the tour Francesco narrated Roman history and architecture through the ages. The tour culminated with an off the beaten path trip to the church of the martyrs which we would not have seen or known about without his scholarly knowledge.

My wife and really enjoyed our trip to Iceland—and we GREATLY appreciate the incredible amount of effort that went into planning our trip. We are both vaccinated, but didn't know what to expect. Traveling itself was easier then we imagined. Firebird team helped us arrange PCR tests for arrival/departure, and shared all requirements that Iceland has for indoor outdoor mask requirements. Basically you need to wear mask inside in all public places, and should be wearing it outside, but most people usually don't have it on. Our guide and drivers always were wearing mask and had extra masks and cleaning solutions with them at all times, which we appreciate. We plan to use Firebird again in the near future. Thank you very much for everthing!

Met an Omnia rep to let us use our ability to skip the queue for St.Peter's Basillica, he took us to the front of the queue. However the people who were at the front of the queue, who had been waiting for 3 hours, were extremely angry and telling us to go to the back because they thought we were pushing in. The problem was that they coulld not speak english so did not understand our explanation. We turned around and the omnia rep had run away leaving us to get abused by a massive queue of people. Luckily the man at the metal detectors let us through rather than send us to the back. Credit to St. Peters Basillica staff, who helped us use our omnia benefits more than the omnia staff did.
