Very simple arrangement that was cheaper than going through other companies. The official Vatican website had run out of options so this was perfect for last minute plans.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thank you for your kind feedback! We’re glad the booking process was simple and that we could offer a convenient solution when official tickets were no longer available. It’s great to hear our option worked perfectly for your last-minute plans. We hope you enjoyed the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel and look forward to assisting you again!

Bad experience

Zlatko_N, Oct 2025

Ticket haven’t been delivered - no able to entry ! Disaster! Don’t trust them!! I didn’t have such bad experience yet!

Response from Host, Oct 2025

We’re very sorry for the inconvenience. Please note that tickets and vouchers are different — it’s possible that a voucher was shown instead of the actual tickets, which may have caused the confusion. The tickets are always sent via email, and we hope this helps clarify the situation.

So impressive… we were...

So impressive… we were not sure we could access with the popes funeral on-going, so nice to be able to text our agent who sent tickets and ask questions. We got inside and got the full tour it was amazing. A must see, highly recommend!

Worth it

Straight Forward and worked. There is always going to be a bit of a line even on the fast path's but this cut a bunch of time. Tour was great
