Superior to most other of the guided tour options. Offered so much depth to our trip in the cities we visited. St Marks Basillica Venice and walking tour of Florence were stand out experiences.

Great guides, clunky experience flow, too many guests
Our guide for this tour was incredible, a longtime employee of the Vatican who was so intelligent, friendly and knowledgeable about the Vatican and Sistine Chapel. Unfortunately, the group size felt a little too large for it to feel like a truly intimate, exclusive experience. I would strongly encourage Walks of Italy to limit the number of people who join. It was difficult to hear the guides at times with two groups talking over each other. Everyone gets a chance to use a key to open a space in the Vatican which in theory is nice, but when there are 40 people, there is a lot of waiting around and of course everyone going it wants their photo and video taken in the action. I'd so much prefer less focus on key opening, and more focus on the artwork and history.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you found your guide so knowledgeable, friendly, and engaging—it’s always wonderful when our guests connect with our team.
We also appreciate your constructive comments regarding group size and the experience with the key ceremony. This tour is known as the “Key Master” experience, and the opportunity for each guest to participate in is something many people specifically request and consider a highlight of the tour. That said, we understand that with groups, it can take time and sometimes feel less intimate, and we will continue to explore ways to balance this unique chance with a more focused experience on the artwork and history.
Thank you again for your insights, and we hope to welcome you on another tour in the future.
Kind Regards

Outstanding tour
It was an excellent tour of the vatican, sistine chapel, and basilica. Anna was an excellent guide. So knowledgeable! The meeting point was in front of a café near the vatican. There was someone there checking people in for various tours and time slots. Very well organized. 100% recommend it!

Premium Colosseum Tour with Roman Forum & Palatine Hill
I was hesitant at first as it seemed a little expensive but the tour was worth every cent, and you get what you pay for. We had a smaller group (maybe 12?) - other groups were way bigger. Our guide Mauro was THE BEST. So knowledgeable about the history, and passionate about all things Italian, and a charming gentleman. Cannot recommend this particular tour enough. Friendly tip, don't forget your passport, you must present at entrance.

A member of our tour was unable to…
A member of our tour was unable to attend due to illness, however, there is no option for single member refunds without rescheduling the entire tour and losing significant funds.
We did not take the "promised" walk through private hallways which was the entire premise of this tour. An equivalent substitute was not offered.
The tour guide was knowledgeable with a bit of snootiness when asked questions. Tour guide was too focused on pushing the group through and even commented on the need to finish as she had to be in another distant town in a short while.
Although the content of the tour is beyond compare, I would not repeat the experience nor recommend it to others as the tour owner's charges are ridiculous and gluttonous -- which are aligned with all other tours offered at the Vatican. I hazard a guess that the Vatican charges hefty fees to the tour companies "for the privilege" of access.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you found the content of the tour informative and knowledgeable.
As noted on our website, starting December 2024, access to St. Peter’s Basilica may be limited due to the Vatican’s Jubilee Year 2025, which includes special events and ceremonies. These closures are determined by the Vatican and are unfortunately beyond our control.
Because the Vatican requires us to purchase tickets under specific names in advance, we are also unable to provide next-day or partial refunds for single participants outside of the terms and conditions, as this ensures access and availability for all guests.
We take your comments regarding the guide very seriously and will be investigating this matter further. We sincerely apologize that these factors impacted your experience, and your feedback has been shared with our team as we continually strive to provide the best possible experience for our guests.

Did not get what we paid for.
We paid for an early entrance to the Vatican and Sistine Chapel however, the guide gave us a historical overview before entering, so we went in with the crowds. She did give us valuable information on getting into St Peter's since she could not gain entrance with the group. Were never offered a partial refund.

Thank you for your feedback regarding your experience with us. We are pleased to hear that your guide was able to provide valuable information on navigating St. Peter's Basilica, even under difficult circumstances.
As noted on our website: Please note: starting December 2024, access to St. Peter's Basilica may be limited due to the Vatican's Jubilee Year 2025, which includes special events and ceremonies. These closures are determined by the Vatican and are beyond our control. Thank you for your understanding.
The special access passage between the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica is closed on Wednesdays and subject to other unexpected closures during special celebrations/festivities, including the Easter ceremonies. On such days we will instead explore the magnificent Pinoteca Gallery.
Please accept our sincerest apologies that this experience fell short of the high standards we strive to provide.
We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for a seamless experience.

we had a tour of the roman colosseum and forum on oct 19 2025. the rome half marathon was that day so we were unable to get to the meeting location on time. during the time we were attempting to get to the arrival point we called the office 3 times. there is no way to talk to your guide if you are having troubles. also i have sent 2 emails to the front office telling about the problem and have received no compensation or reply. we were not the only people on this tour that had that problem .

Dear Guest
I am sorry to hear of your issues on the Colosseum trip.
We do not provide guide numbers to guard the enjoyment of the tour for all Guests. We do not want guests experience disrupted with their phone going off during the tour.
The Marathon is a challenging experience as it can change last minute where the police close off, which means we have last minute movements to make.
We ask all guests to be there 15 mins before the tour start as the tickets are timed, we are unable to join you up on the tour once it has started. If we delayed too long, the whole group would not be able to take the tour.
In relation to your email, I can see you emailed on the 18th December and it said I will send more details to you, thank you and then we have not received anything further.
Please submit your info to feedback@walks.org ref R1QZKEHE

Best tours I have ever taken.
We had come from the other side of the world and I decided to book with you for two tours. Both tours had amazing guides and we had amazing experiences at both The Colosseum and Vatican. I do want to add our guide at The Vatican was exceptional and his knowledge and presentation quite amazing. He told the stories and I felt as if I was right there. We came to Rome to see and hear about the history and were not disappointed. Thank you and I have recommended your tours to many people. I do want to say I heard about you through a lady who lives in Rome thru her you tube channel Rome Wise. She said she recommends your tours highly and she was right.
Thank you again Margaret
