    Worthwhile

    Ashley_B, Jul 2026
    It’s a beautiful church with a stunning interior! I went to see the tombs of Michelangelo, Galileo and Machiavelli. The tombs in the floor were so interesting too. I did not do the audio tour, as I had limited time. But it was worthwhile.

    A Sight Not to Be Missed

    A beautiful church worth making time to see in Florence. Easy to find, easy to access and worth the ticket.

    Short,, sweet, and full of history

    It was amazing to see the tombs of so many known and unknown people! Short and sweet! Also, not the most crowded experience, so well worth it.

    Worth the wait

    Don't waste your money with skip the line - everyone gets in the same line. A very long line but worth the wait. The Dome is worth the wait also.

    Visit to The Basilicca San Croce

    Come early at least 10 minutes ahead of time. Have your QR code ready! Getting the online tickets was easy enough however we didn't understand we had to download the QR codes required for scanning at the entrance. We simply downloaded our tickets from the email sent by Viator and saved them to our Google wallets. These tickets were not acceptable. It was confusing to say the least.

    Met with guy outside told...

    Met with guy outside told us to go inside… no other information was given.. we toured alone no translations in English were offered to us. We were grateful for our own Google/meta descriptions translations we had available to us. I must have misunderstood not a guided but self guided tour no assistance. Church was beautiful but would have been more interesting with a guide.

    Tickets On line?

    Connie_S, May 2026
    Santa Croce is beautiful and to be able to not stand in line and have the ticket sent to me on line is great. The one thing they send the message to pick up from the contact several times but just before they send the tickets on line by What's App, its a good thing I checked last minute to pick up the tickets on line. It seems that they should have known that the tickets could be sent, it takes away the worry of finding the person to pick up from!

    Avoid Viator.

    For two tickets ordered, Viator charged me for sixteen! And the code sent does not serve as a skip-the-line: you have to wait in line to purchase the correct number of tickets without the commission taken by Viator and then wait in line to present the tickets at the entrance. It was simpler to arrive unprepared, to wait in line to buy the right number of tickets without the commission taken by Viator, and to enter! Avoid Viator!

    Response from Host, May 2026

    Nous sommes désolés que votre expérience n’ait pas répondu à vos attentes. Nous souhaitons toutefois préciser que la file pour le contrôle de sécurité est obligatoire pour tous les visiteurs, y compris ceux ayant des billets réservés à l’avance, et cela ne peut malheureusement pas être évité. La réservation anticipée est fortement recommandée, surtout en haute saison, car les billets sont très souvent complets le jour même. Le principal avantage est donc de garantir l’accès au monument sans risquer de ne plus trouver de disponibilité. Merci d’avoir partagé votre retour.
