Apart from the fact that we booked the 9.30 entrance but on the day we visited there was a meeting happening and the museum would open only after 11am instead of 9am, the whole procedure was smooth and no more than 10 minutes overall (including security checks) to actually get in.

The tour was very well organized, and the information about what to do at each stop was helpful. Thanks to the audio guides in the earbuds. All the drivers we met were very welcoming, friendly, and professional.

It was great. You have to go in through El Carrusel, which is like a shopping area at the base of the pyramid. There are hardly any people there, so getting in was super quick. Go early to make the most of the day.

We received the tickets on time and our entry into the museum happened in the blink of an eye. We did not encounter any problems; on the contrary, everything went very smoothly.

It was so fast. I booked the tickets and got a queue for the time I preferred. I didn't do anything special and booking took a few minutes. I'm happy about that.

We got in really quickly—since I’d already bought the ticket through the app—and had no trouble getting in. The only downside was that we didn’t get an audio guide, but in the end it wasn’t a problem because if you like art and have heard of some of the painters and sculptors, you’ll enjoy spending over three hours inside the museum. You enter through the Sally Hall, and they ask you to scan the QR code sent by the app itself, so from there you can start enjoying the entire museum. The map in Spanish (my native language) tells you which room to go to, and before you know it, you’re standing in front of the Mona Lisa. Then you go down the stairs, and the sculpture gallery is (in my opinion) the highlight of the museum, passing through the paintings by Italian artists—it’s huge! If you can schedule a visit in the morning, that’s best, because the groups that start pouring in suddenly don’t let you admire everything you come across along the way. It’s definitely a great app for getting into the museum—it’s worth noting that this alone is enough to enjoy everything it has to offer. I highly recommend it—you go at your own pace, taking in everything it has to offer, and before you know it, you’ve been inside for three hours! I bought the ticket the day before and it was the only slot available—is it worth it? Yes, it takes a little while for them to send you the codes so you can enter, but it’s very secure and reliable. I definitely recommend it—it’s fast and they accept all credit cards. Don’t hesitate to get your tickets here.

Peccato non ci fosse un filo di ombra, aspettare, alle 13,30 sotto il sole è stato molto complesso cato. Una volta dentro, tutto è stato magnifico.
