Booked this experience the night before going as the online tickets for the Vatican were sold out. Make sure if you take Taxi you go to the meeting point and not just the Vatican because they can be far from each other. We booked the 8 AM tickets but it takes about 20 minutes to get the tickets after meeting the guide. Good thing is you're waiting in the office rather than out in the sun. After that you are guided to the entrance and we went right in. Very easy and convenient would totally recommend. Only thing is it might be confusing at the meeting point because there are many other tour guides with flags and you start wondering where you're supposed to go.

The Vatican Museums house an unparalleled collection spanning millennia, from classical sculptures to medieval tapestries. However, the crown jewel remains Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel ceiling, a breathtaking fresco that transforms the chapel into a divine canvas. The different scenes, particularly the banishment from the Garden of Eden, demonstrate artistic genius that transcends religious boundaries. The chapel's role as the papal conclave site adds profound historical weight to its aesthetic splendor.

It is like entering into another world filled with magnificent art, history, and immersing culture. Skip-the-line tickets made the whole experience stress-free and convenient. The Vatican Museums are absolutely stunning, and seeing the Sistine Chapel with my own eyes was beyond words—an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime experience that will be remembered and celebrated. Lastly, what made the whole experience so memorable and special is meeting different people from different backgrounds around the world.

    The guide was really supportive in accessing the museums. Kind, friendly, friendly and professional, available for any questions even in pre-visit to know the rules of access. The Museums are indescribable except to say that they are a totally unreplicable thing in this day and age. We were inside three and a half hours. Unforgettable experience. Wonderful.

    The museums are really worth your time: astonishing, culturally interesting and so many works of art that you don't get to see anywhere else like this. Is skip the line worth it: maybe. It depends on if you want to wait a while longer (1 or 2h) to save approximately 30€/ticket. For us travelling in August and on our honeymoon the skip the line was totally worth it.
