Description

After booking, you will receive your confirmation with all the details needed for your experience. On the day of your visit, please arrive at the designated meeting point in Piazza del Risorgimento, in the center of the square next to the green kiosk bar. Our team will be there to welcome you and assist you with check-in.

Once checked in, you will be assigned to a group and accompanied by our staff to access St. Peter’s Basilica and continue toward the Dome. Please note that the person accompanying you is not a licensed tour guide, but a host whose role is to coordinate the group, facilitate entry procedures, and ensure a smooth experience for all participants.

At the meeting point, you will also receive a multilingual audio guide, allowing you to explore the Basilica at your own pace. The audio guide is available in multiple languages and can be used freely during your visit to enrich your experience with historical and artistic insights.

Please be aware that all visitors must pass through mandatory security checks, including metal detectors, before entering the Basilica. These controls are managed exclusively by the Vatican authorities and cannot be bypassed or skipped by any service or provider.

As a result, the total duration of the experience may vary depending on waiting times at security. Queues can change significantly based on seasonality, crowd levels, and any religious ceremonies or special events taking place inside the Basilica.

This service is ideal for visitors who prefer a structured meeting point, on-site assistance, and the convenience of entering as part of an organized group, while still enjoying the freedom to explore independently.
