Finding Your Walk Leader
We always show up, its impossible we are not at our meeting point.
We have at least 2 guys at each point, so we are always there. If you dont see us,
or cant find us you must be in the wrong place. Best to print
our maps on our tours page to find our meeting points.
The Angel Tours Walk Leader will be holding
up an opened yellowish umbrella with angel faces on it. No fotos
or video of the walk leader, they are shy and too ugly.
We always have at least two guides at meeting
points, even if you are late we almost always have a person employed
to wait for late arrivals. But please try not to be too late!
We use licensed guides and walk leaders
along with tour escorts

Whats included in our Vatican Tour?

Then you will see the Sistine Chaple, most time will be spent seeing the chaple and talking about it.
After a short break we then enter St Peters Basilica. Believe it or not most people end up liking this the most. In St Peters Basilica we take a full walk around its shape (when possible) visiting Papal tombs which is often a laugh, we reveal the most amazing secrets of the Basilica and its art, doorways, mosaics, altars and then finally the most amazing piece of art inside St Peters basilica, The Pieta by Michelangelo
After the Basilica we take you to the Popes Audience area to reveal St Peters Square which is so interesting it could be a tour on its own.
Some of our competitors say that no one can pass lines, or have tickets pre payed etc, that’s only because the cant offer this service. We do pass the public line and do pre-buy tickets.
Other companies will offer to bring you to the museums later in the day, “hoping” there wont be a public line. You can never depend on public lines, thats why we always book tickets in advance.
This tour lasts around about 3.5hrs from the time we enter the museums to the time we say good bye to you.
Although the tour starts at 11am some folks might be a bit late but we do employ young Irish students whose job
it is to wait for you. They will then get you into the museums to your group.
But please don't be too late and if you like you can tip for this service if you need to use it.
Our 11am meeting point is on our map (see more below on the page), we meet on the steps across the road from the Vatican Museums entrance.
You can easily find us if you look for the Yellow brownish umbrella with pictures of Angels on it.
