Picking up the tickets was so easy! The meet location is right across from the entrance. Once you get your tickets they walk you right to the front of the line, waited while we’re till you get “scanned”, then walk you in. Since we didn’t buy the guided tour we were on our own. So quick and easy.

Nice to see David in the flesh

Kelley_M, Jul 2026

It was incredible to see David in the flesh. All the beautifully crafted marble was also very impressive. The skip the queue was very well worth it as it was baking hot so we didn't had to wait for hours to get in.

Very easy and worth the money to skip the line. Staff was nice and right to the point. We got there 15 mins early and were in front of David in about 20mins

Spectacular artworks

Ken_P, Jun 2026

Seeing Michelangelo’s arguably most famous piece of art was great. Such detail and precision. A must see. Other pieces from numerous other artists also quite good.

Great!

Jessica_P, Jun 2026

Wonderful! Super easy to find, check in, got our tickets, and walked right in. The check in shop is literally 5 steps to the line. They offered us free water. I couldn’t have asked for better.

Breathtaking

bill_c, May 2026

I was stunned that something so majestic in my mind all my life resides in such an unassuming building in the middle of a bustling city. That said once inside was breathtaking. A must see if ever possible. All went so smooth booking through Viator with steady updates. Enjoy!

Victor is THE way to go and makes all the difference.

James_M, May 2026

Victor was great. Last minute, we decided to see Michaelangelo's statue, David. The website was easy to use, the local office was terrific and as a result, we enjoyed/skip-the-line privilege for a reasonable cost!

Fun

Erica_M, May 2026

Very friendly and informative. Definitely worth the visit. The staff were very helpful and knowledgeable

Great

teymard, May 2026

Everything was great on this tour. Our guy gave us water and we got to skip the line. The lines were long, but they moved fast. I would definitely do this tour again..

Statue of David

Tom_R, May 2026

Great opportunity to skip the general admission lines. Guided tours are also available. Very courteous staff!

Skip the line tickets is a good option through Viator.

Stacy_C, Apr 2026

Skip a line tickets were great. We did end up standing in a line but it was a shorter line and only took roughly 10 minutes to get in. The check-in spot was easy to find and overall a good experience. I thought the museum itself was underwhelming, but the statue of david did not disappoint.

No wait whatsoever. It was a bit challenging finding the meet up location but we found it in time and were greeted qith complimentary water.

Good experience

Bpan23, Apr 2026

Interesting and best to book in advance to avoid queuing. Really busy at all times but we'll worth seeing

Saved us hours in line

Dana_M, Apr 2026

Saved us hours in line. We needed last minute tickets and were able to get them the same day for a group of 15. Helped us get in line and get through the cue.

Art, religion, architecture skipping the lines!

Vicki_R, Mar 2026

I loved the guide. She was perfect..the timing and the information was exactly as I hoped. And the extra benefit of a guided tour is exiting right at the entrance to St Peter’s. It was a perfect way to see the museum, the Sistine Chapel and St Peter’s.
