One of the tiniest countries in the world, the Vatican, is located in the heart of Rome, making it a must when visiting Rome. Realistically however, there are not many parents brave enough to visit it with strollers and only few would recommend it. Overcrowded and full of tourists is an understatement when talking about Vatican.

The location and the area are beautiful, with old and ancient sights on every corner but strolling around is sometimes literally painful. You can prevent long queues by booking tickets online in advance and after entering the country, make sure to have your shoulders and knees covered.

Depending on where you stay in Rome, the Vatican is accessible by foot, by Rome's public transport or the famous Hop on, Hop off bus.
