Our guide to the night tour Rudy was excellent. He kept things moving without feeling overly rushed, he shared stories and details that I never would have known or thought to look for without a guide. At a place like the Vatican Museaum which can be a never ending maze, it was wonderful to have the focus and direction of the tour. If you’re short on time, want to beat the heat and see the highlights of this amazing place I highly recommend this night tour.
