We had an incredible private tour of the Vatican with Context Travel, and our guide Alessia made the entire experience unforgettable. She was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and made the rich history of the Vatican come alive in a way that was both informative and fun. Alessia answered all of our questions with enthusiasm and depth, and her passion for the subject was clear throughout the tour. She was also a total lifesaver—when my girlfriend accidentally dropped her shawl before entering the Sistine Chapel, Alessia swooped in with a backup, saving the day! Highly recommend Alessia as a guide and Context Travel as a company. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, personalized, and enriching way to experience the Vatican, this is it.

Very informative and professional. One member of our tour group lost his entry ticket, and fortunately Alessia was able to obtain a duplicate to gain entry. Alessia guided us through several museum galleries and finally the Sistine Chapel. With the Jubilee year, the Vatican was busy!

This is a must see. It is impossible to see everything at the.Vatican without an expert guide. There is just too much and it is overwhelming. Alessia was more than we hoped for as a guide. She is a scholar of the art and architecture and made our visit to the Vatican memorable. Kudos to Context Tours for giving us such a wonderful experience.
