The location for getting your tickets is very sketchy. Honestly you are way better off going through the Vatican website. This feels a lot like you've been scammed. I would not recommend.
We haven’t gone yet we received a cancellation I had correspondence with Viator we were able to reschedule for 8/20 at 15 - We did have a private golf cart tour which was fabulous- With Francesco Gladly give that tour Five Star +
The visit was cancelled on the eve, infamous that the deadline was a national holiday. Now, the moment I bought it would be a national holiday. Why did they sell? Why didn't they warn you sooner? Unfortunate, even with the refund of the amount paid.
We booked the 8:30 time slot. Arrived at 8:10. We were told our time was moved until 10:30, with no prior notice. We then spent money on taxis to go other places, costing us around 50 euros. When we came back for the 10:30, the “skip the line” was a line that included 200 + people in front of it. Would not recommend this company.
We missed our original Vatican visit day, so I had to quickly book a new visit the night before. Booking was fast and efficient and we received our entry tickets for the 8:00 time slot. Thanks to the clear instructions, we were the first ones in and had time for a nice breakfast at the cafe before exploring the museum.
Arrive more than 15 minutes early. The office took too long to print our tickets and we missed getting the guided experience.
This was a step into history for sure. The ceilings were incredible works of art. Some of what we saw was better than the Sistine Chapel.
Really disappointed - after being told our visit time to the Vatican was delayed even after asking a number of times. The guide who was due to print off tickets eventually told us that it would be 30 minutes plus later than expected, but couldn’t confirm timings. We questioned whether there was any possibility that we could cancel as we were likely to be running late for other things that had been arranged that day. Thé guide then disappeared for another 15/20mins while we waited with no idea what was going on. Eventually on returning we asked if the visit was still on for 11am to which he announced he had cancelled our booking!!!! So after spending an hour waiting I then find out no visit I spoke to your support team over the phone who were really helpful and a refund email and full refund were issued promptly. The annoying issues were the rudeness of the employee, the fact that I had travelled that day to the area for a trip I had paid over £130 for that never happened. The following day I was leaving Rome so had no chance to rearrange. A real shame and no Vatican visit!!
It really is skip-the-line! This was our 2nd time at the Vatican. The 1st time we did the museums & St. Peter's w/ a guide, which was wonderful! Especially since we were w/ my mother who has limited mobility. This time was just us 2, no St. Peter's & no guide. I wish we would've used one. Maybe next time!
