Reviews

Great way to see and kern about the Vatican.

2018/10/23 Couples K&K

The small group tour was outstanding along with the "skip the line" pass. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the history of Vatican City. Had a great time.

FAQ

Q. What is the difference between Faster Than Skip the Line, VIP Skip the Line, and Skip the Line tickets?
A. Faster Than Skip the Line, No-Wait, and VIP Skip the Line tickets mean the same thing. It gives you access to the Vatican Museums through a dedicated entrance. This means the waiting time is significantly shorter since the only thing you'll wait for is the security check.

Skip The Line tickets refer to pre-booked tickets so you'll avoid waiting in queues to buy tickets on-site. However, you will still have to pass through the line the general public has to go through plus the security check.
Q. Can I take photos during my Vatican visit?
A. Non-flash photography is permitted in most areas of the Vatican Museums and St. Peter's Basilica. But, photography of any kind is not allowed inside the Sistine Chapel.
Q. What should I wear on my Vatican visit?
A. Men, women, and children must have their shoulders and knees covered at all times. Low-cut clothing and hats are not allowed.
Q. What is the best time to visit the Vatican?
A. If you want to avoid the crowds, go really early or really late. There are tours on VELTRA that provide access to the Sistine Chapel before it opens to the public and to the Vatican Museums after its operating hours.
Q. What is the best day of the week to visit the Vatican?
A. Visit on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday to avoid most of the crowds.

Most of the museums in Rome are closed on Mondays, the Papal Audience is staged every Wednesday, locals are part of the crowds on Saturdays and the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel are closed on Sundays.
Q. Which Bramante Staircase does the tour visit?
A. There are two Bramante Staircases in the Vatican Museums and both are located in the Pio-Clementine Museum.

This tour visits the original staircase that was constructed in 1505. It is usually closed to the public. It was originally used as the passageway for the Papal apartments and offers a great view of Rome.

The other Bramante Staircase was built in 1932 and is used as the way out of the Pio-Clementine Museum.
