Entrada Evite las colas para los Museos Vaticanos

Absolutely amazing place of history! Despite the line, be sure to see St.Peter's Basilica as well. There is nothing like this anywhere else in Italy! Ladies, be sure your shoulders and knees are covered - the employees take respect of this holy place very seriously.

As the name suggests these are no wait tickets, they meet you at the bottom of some stairs nearby (remember to check the instructions they provide on where to meet and how to get these) then once in you can explore at your own pace. They don't provide much else in terms of informative talks or anything. ALSO REMEMBER TO DRESS APPROPRIATELY COVERING SHOULDERS AND KNEES FOR THE HOLY ROOMS - although men are able to get away with shorts just at the knee so don't panic if it is really hot!

Our family of 5, including my 11 year old grandson, took this tour on a Monday in August during the high season. It's worth paying extra as the tour guide bypassed the LONG line and we entered quickly. We wore headsets as Martina gave us history and things to look for before we started our tour. We were even given a bathroom and water break at an area with the least amount of people as she kept all 16 of us in a group. Martina was so patient and kind to everyone's needs. I highly recommend this tour. Thank you for a great job Martina!

Bit more pricey than the normal tickets, but definitely worth it to beat the queue! Our only problem was that the meeting point was tricky to find (there are separate points for with/without tour) so it would have been useful to receive a map on the ticket or a contact number for on the day!

Definitely need skip the line tickets to visit the Vatican, Sistine chapel and the basilica. The guide was very good but for the difference in price, it was not worth it in my opinion. A guidebook is just as good and you can move at your own speed. We ended up listening to the guide for long periods of time in the hot sun.

We got to Vatican City and saw a person with City Tours in front of St. Peter's who took a look at our paperwork and said that we needed to "go right over there" to redeem our tickets. It was 1:00, and our tickets were for 2:00. Thinking we had plenty of time, we had lunch right near "right over there" and went to the area where we were told at 1:45. Well, the person with City Tours who told us where to go was WRONG, and we needed to walk another 15-20 minutes farther to get to the place where we were actually supposed to go! So needless to say, we were unable to make our appointment time. ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS that someone with the same company as our tour could not help us.

The tour was great and eddy (with a y) made it that way! Amazing tour, with an amazing tour guide!!!

Very pleased with these no wait tickets, City Wonders rep was on time and got us through to the museum very quickly. My family and I had a lovely day at the Vatican.

We had a really good experience with your company your workers were very good and accommodating! Would definitely use Viator again !

Very informative and interesting. Although crowded, it afforded time to peruse the areas that called my attention.

Excellent way to slowly see the Vatican and the Sistine Chapel without being rushed thru. It was very worthwhile to get the no wait tickets. We breezed in. We even backtracked and saw the Sistine Chapel twice.

We were very frustrated with this tour! Instead of waiting on the line outside the Vatican, we waited for ever "No-Wait Tickets" inside the Vatican just past the security check point! There was no clear communication as to why we were waiting, and when one of the guides came by they asked for the kids in the group. Unless you are religious, save your money and go see something else... If you want to go to the Vatican, save your money and wait on the main line!

We did skip the lines so it was as described, but it took ages to find the tour operator at the site. Directions for someone who’s never been before weren’t great. We asked and were directed to staff doing tours, where tickets only were at a site further away. Not sure why that’s necessary?

Our guide was outstanding! He was very informative and did his best to help the group stay together and move at a good pace. He was very conscientious about pointing out all the most important rooms and artwork. He took special care of an elderly lady that needed help keeping up with the rest of the group. There were certain aspects of the tour that was out of the guides control, such as the temperature (no AC inside the museums) and crowded rooms, that took away from the experience. If I were to go back I would splurge and book the private tour before the museums open to the public for a more peaceful and comfortable experience.

Excellent tour! Alexandra is very knowledgeable and has a great sense of humour and really gave us a great tour. The 3 hours were over in a flash! The place is super busy but actually totally fine, just go along and enjoy the ride and absolutely do not forget your camera! We managed to pack in the amazing tapestry and map corridors and other beautiful areas on the way to the sistine chapel. You get 15 minutes in the sistine which doesnt sound like much but was actually perfect. Then a bit more in st Peters basilica, it ended dead on time. You can get an extended tour which is 1.5 hours longer but I didnt have time, would have jumped at the chance otherwise. Plenty more to go back and see and will book city wonders again. Thank you

Worked out perfectly. Very knowledgeable guide brought us right in. No waiting. Id definitely recommend.

We had no trouble finding the meeting point, where the City of Wonders representative was already waiting. We were given tickets and a map of the Vatican, which also had information about the Sistine Chapel paintings. We were expedited past the waiting crowds and promptly entered the Vatican where we could explore at our own pace.

Excellent tour. Eddy was very knowledgeable and fun. The only thing I would have changed was to make this a whole day tour with so much to see. Missed the staircase. All said I learnt and saw so much. Would do it again.

We had to que , the tour guard didn't seem to know what she was doing. Said it was her first doing the Vatican, I had a small baby in a push chair she didn't tell us where to keep it. The whole thing was very disappointing, I wouldn't book with you again or recommend to my friends and family.

This was not the best experience. Out reservation had not been recorded despite having to emails proving we had paid. Staff sorted this out quickly as thankfully I had copied of the voucher with me. However communication from the team was poor. It took over an hour to enter the Vatican Museums and little was said to us as we waited - it felt like being corralled by cattle. Of particular concern was the children in our party were taken away to get their tickets separately from the adults. There was no warning of this and caused understandable concern amongst the parents present. Better communication would have made this a much better experience.

I showed up on time and was directed to the wrong area. By the time I figured it out I was two minutes late and they wouldn’t let me in. I had to buy a new ticket. I couldn’t call Viator as I’m in a foreign country so I’m hoping I can resolve this when I get back. My advice: buy your ticket through the official vatican site and show up as early in the day as possible.

The lines for the Vatican were horrific. Our tour company was great.....we quickly entered the Vatican and and received our tickets. We then were on our own to Tour. Highly recommend this tour!!!
