These prebooked tickets for the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel give you a chance to enter from a dedicated entrance and avoid the long queues at the ticket office. You can stay in the Vatican Museums for as long as you want (opening hours permitting) but your visit to the Sistine Chapel will be limited to 15 minutes.
IMPORTANT: Please note that your ticket will be for a specific time and you will only be able to use your ticket at that time. You will not be able to enter before the scheduled time, and if you arrive late you will be denied entry, with no refund available.
Once you have finished your visit to the museums and the Sistine Chapel you're free to visit St Peters. Please note that if you're visiting on a Wednesday morning and there's a Papal Audience in progress (this does not happen every Wednesday), then St Peter's Basilica will be closed until 12.00 (midday). The Vatican authorities also reserve the right to make unscheduled last minute closures, often with little or no notice, something clearly outwith our control.
Why book in advance? Well, queues on the day can be enormous, with hours spent just waiting and wasting your precious time. It is only possible to confirm bookings up to sixty days in advance, but we can take bookings until the end of the year and place them on hold for you.
*Please note that as St Peters is a church you do not need a ticket to enter and you can visit at any time during its opening hours, although you may have to queue depending on the number of visitors. If you want to skip the queues, we offer these tours.
