Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel Skip-the-Line Entry Ticket
Overview
Mobile ticket
URGENT INFORMATION
Due to the passing of the Pope, the Sistine Chapel will be closed to visitors starting from April 28th until further official notice. Your ticket will still grant you access to the Vatican Museums.
Your skip-the-line reservation will ensure that you have more time to spend visiting these magnificent masterpieces instead of waiting hours in line. After meeting your host, you will be accompanied inside the main hall without waiting in line and receive your tickets.
Discover the Museum Pio-Clementino, home to the famous " Laocoön and His Sons ", known for inspiring Michelangelo and other famous Italian artists. Here you will also find the " Belvedere Torso", and the Round Hall. Make sure not to miss out the Raphael Rooms, located on the second floor overlooking the south side of the Belvedere Courtyard, four rooms entirely decorated by magnificent frescoes of Italian renaissance artists including Raphael.

1.00I would not recommend, they wouldn’t honor a refund due to a medical issue and not being able to attend.
This is a must see...

5.00This is a must see experience for Rome! It is crowded everyday, so bring good shoes and don’t rush!!
Well worth the stress free entrance & escort through the gate, security and ticket line.

5.00The establishment where you pick up your tickets and meet your entry guide is conveniently located across the street from the side entrance to the Vatican. The tickets only options provides you with an escort through the gate, security, and ticket line; you are on your own to tour the museum. I must say, the inflated cost of the entry ticket is well worth the escort and stress free entrance.
Efficient, friendly, professional

4.00This is literally just a ticket to skip the line into the Vatican. A tour rep will take you from the shop, through the line and to scan your tickets, and will then leave. You are then free to self-guide yourself through the museums or rent your own audio guide. You will skip a long line, we met at the tour store at 11.30 and were into the museums by 12pm. BUT BEWARE: the directions on the booking will take you to the wrong meetup location!!! You must download your ticket voucher and go to the store address listed on there. We went to the wrong place and nearly missed our tour which was very stressful. But it is easy to find and near the Vatican if you know where to go.
