Description

It is required to arrive at our office (Via Vesapsiano 71) 30 minutes before scheduled time. Our staff will send your ticket via email once you arrive and explain the entrance. A digital audio guide is included for your visit.

After security checks (managed by Vatican City, with possible waiting time of around 30 minutes or more in high season), you will enter St. Peter’s Basilica and explore it independently at your own pace.

Your experience also includes the Dome Climb if selected, with two options: stairs or elevator. If you choose the elevator option, you will still need to climb a final section of stairs to reach the top.

Inside you can admire Bernini’s Baldachin, Michelangelo’s dome, the Chapel of the Blessed Sacrament, and other masterpieces.

  • Carry your ID on you. DRESS CODE: shoulders and knees have to be covered. All visitors must pass through airport-style security.
