Great place and pace

Kimberly_M, Sep 2025
The audio and narration worked out great. It was nice to take the tour at our own pace. We had the ability to play it back if we missed star was being said.

Highly Recommend this Tour!

Charlotte_G, Jul 2025
The basilica lines were fast with our group tour skip the line ticket and the tour guide Wn was excellent. We got to see a ton of intricate details inside the basilica, including the crypt, and our guide explained the significance of many parts of the basilica we would have otherwise missed.

The audio guide is not...

Jessica_S, Jun 2025
The audio guide is not worth it. It says the same thing a million times. Better to just do skip the line or go early and buy tickets there. And when I spoke with customer service about changing times they were not helpful

Response from Host, Jun 2025

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the audio guide did not meet your expectations and that your experience with customer service was not helpful. We understand how frustrating that can be. Your comments are important to us, and we’ll be reviewing both the guide content and our support process to improve for future visitors. We appreciate you sharing your experience and hope you still enjoyed the visit overall.

okay

Theresa_M, May 2025
There was no audio or skip the line; I had an email confirmation, never received an actual ticket; the ticket desk let me thru but I had no audio, just walked myself around.

Museum day

Lisa_T, May 2025
Buy your tickets at the venue for $9.00 euro buying tickets on this site was not needed . We went early walked right in . Spent $56.00 instead of $18.00

Response from Host, May 2025

Thank you for your feedback. We always appreciate hearing from visitors. However, we’d like to clarify that our service is designed for travelers who prefer convenience, skip-the-line access, and guided experiences—something not available with standard entry. While it's possible to buy tickets at the venue, especially during low-traffic times, our customers often value the time saved and the added service we provide. Also, we’ve noticed that some reviews may come from competitors rather than genuine guests, so we encourage all future visitors to look at a broad range of reviews and experiences before making a decision. We remain committed to transparency and excellent service. Please feel free to contact us directly if you have any concerns or questions.

The host of the tour gave clear instruction to retrieve e-ticket 24 hour before the tour started via WhatsApp. Tickets were delivered on time. I never attempted to use/download any audio guide so I can't comment on that.

Ripped off by operator

Art_P, Apr 2025
The operator only sent a QR code for entrance and audio tour. No one at the ticket office had the ability to read the QR. they wanted to see a voucher and we were sent none.

Response from Host, Apr 2025

Sure! We sent you the tickets by both email and WhatsApp, and the QR code you received was only for the audio guide, not for entry. The actual entry tickets were sent to you in PDF format. All of this was explained very clearly in the description provided

Beautiful

Penny_L, Apr 2025
Received our tickets ahead of time on Whatsapp and walked right in. Worth seeing, I enjoyed it more than the Duomo

Easy Way to See

Sarah_Z, Mar 2025
Easy and great way to learn and see this historic and amazing site. Educational and great up close experience.

To see

MARIECHRISTINE_R, May 2025
The sumptuous Medici Chapel. We just regret that we were not able to include in our visit the Basilica of San Lorenzo.
