Overview

2 hours 30 minutes

Mobile ticket

Leave the crowds behind and step into a world where divine inspiration meets artistic genius. With exclusive skip-the-line access, your Vatican experience begins not with waiting—but with wonder.

Wander the Vatican Museums, a labyrinth of splendor housing one of the world’s most magnificent art collections. Each corridor reveals a new marvel—Michelangelo’s bold strokes, Raphael’s refined elegance, Botticelli’s poetic grace—woven together in a visual tapestry that spans civilizations.

Then, the crescendo: the Sistine Chapel. As your gaze lifts to Michelangelo’s celestial ceiling, time seems to stand still. The Creation of Adam, The Last Judgment—these are not just frescoes; they are visions that continue to move the soul centuries after they were painted.

This is not just a tour—it’s an intimate dialogue with history, faith, and beauty at their highest expression.

Book now, and experience the Vatican as few ever do: deeply, reverently, and completely unforgettable.

Terrible service

Horrible. My tickets to the Vatican were cancelled one hour before the scheduled entrance. No responsibility taken whatsoever.
Beware of inefficient ticket sellers

This review is on the company from which we bought the tickets. I strongly suggest to stay away. They were disorganized when they only needed to print the ticket and give it to us. We waited too long for a process that could have been something simple. We were early and were asked to come back. When we did, you’d think they would be ready. Nope, they were not. Had I not been on their faces asking for our tickets, we would not have gotten ours. We ended up 45 minutes late of our time to enter since it was still about 10-minute walk from the pickup to the museum. Spare yourself the stress. Do not buy from this company.

Collected our self guided tour instead audio tickets with instructions from the helpful and friendly Viator local supplier just a 3 minute walk from the Vatican entrance,, an easy exchange. It was raining on the day we Visited but the queues were still long despite our ‘jump the queue’ tickets. The audio was good, very clear and informative. Beware the Official Guided Tours, they get in everyone’s way and hold up the flow of the walk. But. The Vatican museums are extensive and full of globally sourced artefacts so several hours are needed to complete the entire tour. The experience is quite something that you simply cannot afford to miss if you visit Rome. Note, The Sistine Chapel is spectacular but you’re requested to move through quickly during busy periods so I recommend you grab a place along the side and stop to listen to the lengthy audio. Afterwards we visited St Peter’s Basilica, which I highly recommend as it is possibly the most incredible building in all of the world.
Disappointing disorganisation !!

Sorry, but absolute disorganisation. The tour company was near Vatican City and phoned me as we were 20 minutes away (and 45 minutes early) said they had sent me a message on WhatsApp to say that there would be no Sistine Chapel tour today!!! I did not receive anything and also could not understand the person on the phone. We were on our way to the designated meeting place when I received a call. I had to call the back twice to try to find out where we were to meet and both times I still could not understand the person at the office. The Sistine Chapel is closed at the moment due to the passing of Pope Frances. We were unaware of this until we arrived this afternoon and then found out that the only part of our prepaid tour we could do today was the Vatican Museum. We finally got a person on the phone again that could speak clearer English and were told that we had to collect our tickets from their office which we had already passed 10 minutes before. The crowds are incredible following the Popes death so this made it even worse! When we finally found the office to collect the tickets they told us they would refund to our credit card for the Sistine Chapel tour which we could not do today. Really with the current situation in the Vatican City we should have received at the very least an email or text, not WhatsApp as it is obviously unreliable to let us know of the crowds and the situation and we would have cancelled as it was incredibly busy and the language barrier was absolutely unacceptable from the tour operators point. Not a whinger, but this was total disorganisation and expecting a full refund!
