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.

The Colosseum, Palatine, Roman Forum and Mamertine Prison are all within easy reach. The queue cutter wasn't much use, as I was there at 9 a.m. in the morning, and even though it's crowded, the queue moves quickly to get into the Colosseum. Please note! When you take the 9 a.m. time slot for the Colisée, the Mamertine prison doesn't open until 8:30. So you'll have to go to the prison to collect your tickets for the rest of the tour, and come back once you've finished. For the Castel Sant'Angelo, I arrived right on time and was able to get straight into the tour. It wasn't very crowded, but the entrance was smooth and stress-free.

Saint Angel's Castle. Very interesting place, showing a piece of history. It is good that a lot has been preserved, an impressive monument . Raphael's sculpture stands guard there with dignity 😀the views from the tower are breathtaking, the idea of a cafe on the terraces, where with a cup of coffee, a glass of Aperol you can admire it all super 🤩 the exhibition dedicated in honor of John Paul II was mega impressive. There were no big queues behind the tickets, but having the opportunity to buy online you gain several minutes, which with a busy schedule of sightseeing priceless

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.
