THIS TOUR ALMOST MADE ME PASS OUT NO JOKE

Editorial Summary

The creator recounts a distressing experience during a skip the line tour of the Vatican Museum and the Sistine Chapel in Rome. After arriving in the city and dealing with hotel check-in delays, the creator booked a tour despite extreme summer heat. Once inside the museum, the creator describes a lack of air conditioning and minimal fan usage, noting that indoor temperatures reached 46 degrees Celsius. The tour involves a five mile walk through crowded corridors, and the creator reports feeling dizzy and close to heat stroke. A significant portion of the grievance focuses on the inability to exit the building early; despite informing guards of feeling ill, the creator was told to keep moving along the path. The experience concluded after five hours of walking through souvenir shops and long stairwells to reach the exit. While the creator acknowledges the beauty of the artwork and sculptures, they conclude that the management of the facility is dangerous due to the combination of extreme heat, massive crowds, and the lack of accessible exits or water.
