Our guide Susanne did a great job keeping our group well informed of procedures, the history of the Vatican and its amazing artwork. The Vatican Museum could have someone spend weeks looking through this massive collection!

Chiara IS the difference. As someone who is neither Catholic nor a regular at church, she brought everything to life with her knowledge and passion. The skip-the-line tickets saved us hours of waiting!

Our guide took the time to answer questions and made us all feel special. The early access option was totally worth it - experiencing the Sistine Chapel with fewer people made such a difference to our appreciation of Michelangelo's work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about visiting the Vatican

Are the Vatican Museums wheelchair accessible?

Yes, much of the museum is accessible via ramps and elevators. Wheelchairs can also be borrowed at the entrance, subject to availability.

Can I take photos inside?

Photos are allowed in most areas of the Vatican Museums, but strictly forbidden inside the Sistine Chapel. The security team enforces this rule firmly, so keep the camera (and phone) tucked away when you reach the chapel.

Are guided tours worth it?

Absolutely — especially for first-timers. A good guide can explain the history, point out hidden details, and help you navigate the maze-like museums. Plus, many tours include skip-the-line entry.

Can I buy tickets at the entrance?

Technically, yes. But… unless you enjoy standing in a multi-hour line (sometimes wrapping around the walls of Vatican City in the summer heat), buying your tickets online in advance is strongly recommended.

Do I need a separate ticket for the Sistine Chapel?

Nope! The Sistine Chapel is included in your Vatican Museums ticket. You can’t buy a standalone ticket for the Sistine Chapel — you’ll pass through the museums first, and the chapel is the grand finale.

Are Vatican tickets refundable?

Yes, most of our tickets offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before your scheduled visit. Some premium tickets and special tours allow cancellations up to 48 hours in advance. Please check the specific cancellation policy for your chosen ticket at the time of booking.
