Overview

With your ticket, explore St Peter's Basilica and admire breathtaking views from the Dome, 136-metres above ground.

First, climb to the top of the Dome, admiring the interior mosaics as you go and listening to the history of the Basilica with your audio guide. Hear how the Dome was constructed and how it became the catalyst for Renaissance architecture.

When you reach the top, admire panoramic views over Vatican City and beyond. As the tallest Dome in the world, the views are truly unforgettable.

Once you descend and make your way through the Basilica, your audio guide will describe many of the highlights, including Michelangelo's Pieta, Bernini's Baldacchino, and the final resting places of St. Peter and other Popes.

You will also marvel at the incredible architecture that surrounds you, from the intricate mosaics to colourful marble.

With 27 points included in the audio guide, be assured that you won't miss any of the Basilica's most important and historical treasures.

What Can You Expect?

After meeting your tour leader at the bar "Al San Michele" where you can take advantage of the included breakfast, we'll take you to the Cupola - the dome that dominates the skyline of Rome.

Ignore any reviews that refer to this as Skip-the-line or early entry. It's not. In fact, it will take you longer to get in using this service rather than just going yourself the day of because you have to wait for the tour, which offers no additional service other than the Audioguide. They explain nothing along the way except to suggest you can buy breakfast at the cafe that "just so happens" to be the group meeting point.

No advantage to booking on this site. Had to queue for two hours. More expensive than had we just turned up on the day. Most unhelpful guide and audio guide was downloading an app that we could get to work. We felt throughly ripped off

Would not recommend! We bought tickets online, we get to the meering point then to go to St. Peters to wait with 60 other people. Then we see the guide buy the tickets! Why pay €29 for a ticket that I can by myself for €10? And have the same experience with just my loved ones and not 58 unkown people! This is a scam!

St. Peter’s was great and so was the tour company. My only complaint was that the self guided tour required you to stay with the large group getting the audio guides, getting thru security and acquiring tickets. So, it added about 30 minutes to the process, so just plan accordingly. If you are prepared for that, all is good.

The tour was interesting to say the least. The “digital” part wasn't working so the guide had everyone redownload the app right in front. Of course with data service being what it is in IT, the download was going to take 3 hours. So once they put a sticker on you and get you to the line for the dome extrance, you're all done. They don't deal with you anymore after that. No one talks to you, tells you where to go or anything. You're on your own. Pro tip, you can get there super early and head up to the dome for like $15 (using the elevator) and no guide really needed since it barely worked anyways. Then the basilica entrance is free.
