It did not happen. Viator placed a message in the app stating that the basilica was going to be closed; therefore, they were canceling. They offered alternate dates and times that I could not meet. I went to the meeting point and my agent never showed up. The basilica opened at 1:00 pm. I ended up paying for a different tour.

Easy to find, great tour guide. Smaller group and it was nice. I learned a lot that I would not have known without the guide.

Views of the Vatican From Above

Alan_S, Jan 2025

The Dome Climb provided access and views not available anywhere else. I would purchase this experience again in a second. Well worth the time and money. The views from the done were incredible.

A great guide!

Our guide Frederico was great! In excellent French, he showed us around the basilica and underground tombs. Precise, interesting comments, with humor and relevance. Merci Frederico!
