We visited the Castel in the afternoon, the entery line was not all that long but with our pre-purchase tickets pretty much went in straight away. The Castel it self was very intersting, as it is built on an old Roman Fort and you realy got a great sense of it age as you made your way from the entry up to the newer fortications above. Exploring the fortress was easy follow the arrows and you wandered from room to room (if you had a self guided tour you would get explainations of every you would visit). We didn't use the self guided tour but we followed the path taking our time. From state rooms to roof tops to batlements there was plenty of opertunites to stop and take it all in. There is a tuck shop in the Castel for refrshments and snaks. All in all we as a family enjoyed the visit.

I visited Castel Sant’Angelo today and it was an incredible experience. The place is much larger than I expected, and every section has something that catches your attention. There are so many fascinating details and pieces of history inside. The room dedicated to Pope John Paul II is especially impressive – it has a very strong and meaningful atmosphere. Overall, the energy of the castle is really good. I definitely recommend visiting if you’re in Rome.

We bought the tickets for our group of five last minute while in Rome. Once we had our tickets it was super easy to get them on our phone. Once we had the tickets was easy to get right in with a simple scan. The crowds were moderately busy but was so nice not to have to stand in line to get tickets. Highly recommend and is a must see sight while in Rome.

    We went straight to the tour area and after visiting the Sistine Chapel, which lasted 3 hours, it was a great pleasure! I highly recommend it as a pleasant way to end the day at the Vatican!

    This was by far one of the most amazing experiences I've had, i would totally recommend you to do it, just remember that you must get your ticket in a different place where you enter the Coliseum.
