My family of 6 adults--2 in their 60s, 4 in their 30s, 2 teens and a six year old---will be in Rome April '09. Any advice about Vatican tour guides and approx cost?
Thanks!

Here are links to prior discussions here of your question about Vatican tour guides:http://www.ricksteves.com/graffiti/helpline/index.cfm?topic=12013http://www.ricksteves.com/graffiti/helpline/index.cfm?topic=12614http://www.ricksteves.com/graffiti/helpline/index.cfm?topic=10388http://www.ricksteves.com/graffiti/helpline/index.cfm?topic=7476Some travelers have preferred to do it on their own, but some travelers feel the Vatican is so vast and overwhelming that a tour was money well spent.

We took a Vatican tour last Oct. and I can tell you it was money well spent. We opted for a 2-hr. Vatican tour since our 6 yr. old daughter was with us and we didnt think she would tolerate a 3-4 hr. tour given by other companies. We paid 29.50E each and our daughter was free. Hope this helps!
