It was all very beautiful, apart from the green area, it was wonderful, enchanting, to know his story, the beauty of his soul, what he left us. You'd have to spend two days in that place to get to know it all.

Our favorite visit to Castel Sant'Angelo "**.
We loved this iconic monument, which is both beautiful, well-maintained and super-convenient for visitors. Here's why we recommend it:
**The big pluses:**
- A **magnificent** site with a **passionate** tour
- Super-practical audio-guide application** (with our own headphones)
- Ticket cutting** which saved us a long wait
**Conveniences that change everything :**
☕ **A nice café** with tables to sit and eat
🚻 **2 well-placed restrooms** along the tour route - super convenient!
🌇 **A breathtaking view** of Rome from the terraces
**Our experience:**
We spent 2 hours there, and no time went by! Between the cultural visit, the coffee break and the photos on the terraces, everything was perfect. Having accessible toilets and a place to rest really made the experience more enjoyable.
*Little tip:*
- Visit at the end of the day for the sunset.
- Allow at least 2h30 to fully enjoy the site.
- Don't hesitate to use the audio-guide (really well done)
A must-see in Rome, perfectly laid out for visitors. We loved it! ★★★★★

It is an imposing castle. It is a museum but you can feel what it was like to live there. The atmosphere takes you back to the difficult and special era when it was at its peak. The view from the terrace is panoramic. Some will simply admire it. Others will think about ancient Rome up to our days, and the suffering of ordinary people.

The visit to the Castle is incredible and learning about its history is fascinating. We went in the late afternoon and stayed until the end to see the sunset and Rome lit up at night.

It was a really neat building with a lot of history. I loved walking across the bridge with the Berninis sculpture, I loved seeing the museum portion that showed the different phases of how the building progressed over time. The statue of St. Angelo and the terrace were beautiful and the cafe with spritzers overlooking St. Peter's Basilica was fantastic.

What an amazing building! It's rich in history and definitely worth reading the signs. The views are stunning! If I did it again I would seek out an audio guide at least. Check in was a breeze.

The ticket purchase was very fast , very convenient from home, I wanted to print it out but didn't make it in time, I left it electronically on my phone. We arrived ahead of time , as we had been requested and have no line at the entrance, the stuart read us the electronic ticket with the portable scanner and we entered. We are from Rome, but it had been years and years since we entered Castel Sant'Angelo!!! It is a wonderful, wonderful place!!! You can palpate history with your hands! We had the audio guide who told us all the history in the various centuries and vicissitudes. It is spectacular!!! Reminiscing to the wars it went through, to the Passetto of the Popes of the Renaissance, of the rooms with the fireplaces of the Middle Ages , and then , the view of Imperial Rome from the terrace : a magnificent thing is unparalleled!!! One could see the monuments to the Unknown Soldier, the Tiber flowing under the road the majestic Bridges , the Vatican Basilicas !!! And what about the view seen from the refreshment point, from the bar: we sat down to eat something, and continued to observe Rome from above !!! Outstanding !!! Now I understand why tourists come in droves to Rome !!! These places are present are in Rome !!!

Everything, its history, the state of the castle. Going up to the terrace is highly recommended, the views of Rome and in front of the Vatican is beautiful. I recommend the digital guide because you listen to the whole story is very entertaining and very interesting.

The views of St. Peter's are beautiful from the cathedral, the complete guided tour, the whole structure of the castle is very striking.

The visit to Castel Sant'Angelo was fantastic. We had booked the last possible timeslot because we wanted to watch the sunset from the terrace. We were not disappointed. But Castel Sant'Angelo itself was also really worth a visit. Very interesting to see everything.

There are some excellent landscapes to photograph from the top of the castle. But you can also observe the incredible preservation of the historic site that is Château Saint-ange.

It was great to get an actual ticket rather than a voucher needing to be exchanged. We were unsure about getting the audio file to work on our phone before our trip but there was no problem at all. Skipped the line with our tickets and followed the audio story around the castle which was very informative. Beautiful views of the river from the top of the castle. Well worth a visit.

The castle is beautiful and yes it is advisable to book tickets to save the line.
The view is beautiful from the top.
I would only change that the meeting point was not so wide, since near the stairs other agencies also gather or that the person in charge would wear a shirt with the Headout logo.

The whole castle is very beautiful, we enjoyed the whole tour, also very good the audio guide in Spanish, only as a suggestion could have audio guide for children and tell the story from the children's point of view.

We had no problem entering the castle. You walk around the castle rather than inside it, but it is very impressive that it has been preserved until today.
