Description
Uncover the truth that lies across the walls of the museum, located on the right bank of the river, Tiber, near the Vatican City.
Admire the stones, marbles and artefacts that narrate the transformation that have happened over the centuries. It was a monumental tomb, a fortress in the medieval ages and it became a defensive post for barbarian invasions.
A must see to all visitors, walk through the 5 floors of the museum heading towards a spiral ramp, admire the cells, including relics, rooms served as a Papal residence and chamber of ashes where you can marvel the remains of Roman successors and frescoes preserved perfectly.
End this wonderful trip on the roof of the Castle’s astonishing terrace of Angel and have a picturesque view of the whole city, a great place to take pictures and admire the sunset. From a spectacular view on top, be prepared to spot the Vatican City , the Tiber river and the famous, Bridge of Angels.

Great site, not great tour operator
The Castel was great, terrific views and artifacts. Unfortunately booking service, LoveRome, was not. They never sent the official tickets to my email and we were scrambling to get them via the Viator Customer Chat. Thank
You Adair for helping out us.

Terrible instructions and no audioguide save your money
Stay away. Awful instructions, no response from the vendor. Impossible to make the audioguide work. So you are paying a premium to essentially get tickets. And Viator support is no better. Declined a partial refund be cause the vendor refused the refund. What a joke. Of course they wont refund because they take your money and not provide the guide. Stay away.

The information provided by the tour operator is very cumbersome to understand
The numbers on the information downloaded do not correspond to the numbers in the exhibit
Disappointing tour

Could have booked ourself
Could have just as well booked this ourselves. The audio guide is bot easy to follow so we landed up just walking through the castle

Check the directions first
Make sure you have the POP app and the audio downloaded, because it is almost impossible to download either without internet (which I didn’t think of, I tried using data which failed, so I didn’t have an audio guide). My only real complaint is that you need to check your SPAM inbox in your email. I spent half an hour trying to get my voucher validated until one of the Castel staff (NOT the Loving Rome support) was kind enough to direct me to someone who helped me find the ticket. Just make sure to very carefully examine the directions before you go.
Otherwise the Castle is stunning!

The Castle was great...
The Castle was great however I paid for Audio Guides for all of us and when I arrived and showed my passes they told me that my voucher/ticket did not include audio guides so I had to pay $40 additional euros for audio guides for me and my family!!

The tour did not pair with the app which I downloaded earlier. Previous tours appeared, but not this one so I was unable to hear anything and just walked through the castle reading the signs pretty disappointing. I would recommend only because of the site itself

Problems!!
I must point out that I had requested a tour with an audio guide to visit a monument in Rome.
But at the time of entry I had problems for the entrance and did not provide an audio guide of the ticket office because your agency is not recognized by the regulations of the service that presides over the monument of Rome.
So I spent a lot more than I would have spent with the legal and recognized service of the ticket office, and I didn't get the service I paid for! they shouldn't allow you to sell tickets or admissions! And they should warn unfortunate customers that you are not equated and in order with the official ticket office!

Worth the price.
The audio guide was better than others but a little more information and details would have helped. And I found it a little confusing at times trying to determine the order of the guide.
