    This is by far the best way to tour these massive attractions- there is just far far too much to see to have a tour guide or tour group to contend with. Being able to make our way through Vatican City, St. Peter’s Square and Basilica, the Sistine Chapel and viewing all the stunning art and inspirational locations on our own made our day very personal and special. Highly recommend!

  • They Canceled our tour.

    They canceled our tour at the last second. We had to book another tour with a different company. I was shocked as we prepaid.

    Got my tickets, the person responded quickly on WhatsApp with any concerns that I had had my doubts at first but everything went well.

  • Great experience but these tickets are too overpriced

    The lines to the museum is very disorganized. There is no shade where the lines are so it was very hot. Tickets say skip-the-line but you still have to line up. You get stuck behind huge groups so it’s hard to move along the routes. Tickets are probably worth it if you go during non peak season and if you buy through the official vatican ticket site when they’re at a more reasonable price.

  • Perfect

    Having the skip the line pass was so very worth it, we really enjoyed going at our own pace. The only thing I would be aware of is how absolutely massive The Vatican Museum is , we didn’t expect for this to be an all day activity (our fault for not doing the proper research) . But just so others know as well!

    We booked tickets that did not arrive; we were not able to access the museum, due to failure or the ticket agency

    Getting skip-the-line tickets for the Vatican was the best decision! The regular line was crazy long, but we walked right in. The museums and Sistine Chapel were incredible, and we had more time to explore without feeling rushed. If you're going, definitely get these tickets – they make the whole experience way more chill!
