Vatican City
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- I had tickets for an early entry at the Vatican and spent most of the morning there.
- Fwiw, as someone who has almost never used a guide elsewhere, I would **strongly** recommend a guide for the Vatican, as it's extremely overwhelming without one.
- If museums are not your thing I recommend you only go to 2 of them if you do. The Uffizi in Florence and the Vatican in Rome/Vatican City.
- We booked the early morning tour at like 6 or 7 am (before it opens up to the rest of the public) directly from the Vatican website. I highly recommend it. We basically had the entire place to ourselves.
- I'd say Vatican City and Monaco would be easy to see in 90 days
Cons
- Also nearly fell for a scam at Vatican City where people in polo shirts with badges were charging 3x the actual museum price. They looked official enough that I almost paid.

If you do go to Rome, Vatican is the best attraction by a long shot unless you aren’t into art & archtecture. Vatican has much more to see compared with Trevi or Colosseum.
Do you have any suggestions for short blurbs, videos, or even scandalous stories for the Roman Forum, Colosseum, or Vatican City?
for rome you should try to see the vatican city.
It was an amazing experience to be one of the last people to go through the doors of the Vatican before they closed for the next quarter century.
