We are pleased to inform you that the Sistine Chapel has officially reopened to the public following the Vatican’s mourning period for the late Pope Francis. With the recent and historic election of His Holiness Pope, the Vatican has now resumed full visitor access, and the Sistine Chapel is once again included in your Vatican Museums visit. Step into the breathtaking Sistine Chapel, the final stop of your Vatican Museums experience, and witness one of the greatest masterpieces of the Renaissance. Marvel at Michelangelo's iconic frescoes, including the awe-inspiring ceiling and The Last Judgment behind the altar—works that have inspired visitors for centuries. The Sistine Chapel is not only a work of art but also a sacred space of immense historical significance—it's where the Papal Conclave was recently held to elect the new Pope. Visiting now offers a rare opportunity to experience this extraordinary site just after a key moment in Church history.

Vatican Visit

Was great we wondered around on our own and looked at sights interesting to us for as long as we liked. Ladies remember to have knees and shoulders covered if you want to visit the chapel it’s worth it.

Slightly Misleading

This isn't really a "skip the line" ticket. You skip the line of purchasing the ticket in person, but you have to still wait in the longest line ever to get inside. The time you choose for your ticket is also not necessarily the time you get to enter. Buyer beware! The actual ticket is 25 euro, so the difference you pay is for not waiting in the line to buy the actual ticket.

Communication was clear, and they delivered the tickets well in advance—before the day of our tour—which gave us complete peace of mind. Everything went smoothly, and the skip-the-line access made our visit easy and enjoyable.

Excellent Service and Great Support!

I booked my Vatican Museum ticket through this seller, and I’m really happy with their service. Due to the high demand for tickets, they were very responsible and quick to respond. Instead of canceling my booking, they upgraded me to a guided tour with escorted entrance support — which was a wonderful experience!

Big mess. The promised date has been postponed. All very unprofessional. Ticket handover far from the venue.

Check the time of your tickets when they arrive

The queues for those without tickets were massive so definitely worth having a timed entry slot. Arrived at the appointed time and were shown to a line, waited 20 mins or so and then entry was at the time booked. Process was quick and once inside, it didn't feel overcrowded. Only given four stars as we had booked for 11.30am. The tickets were sent at 8pm the night before and our slot had been changed to 12.30. Might not matter to some but we had something else arranged later in the day and this left us more rushed than we would have liked. Museum is really, with loads to see - you can easily spend a few hours there.

Changed time of tour

I was sent the tickets through WhatsApp the day before, no problem, but the company had changed my tour time from 10:30 am to 11:00 am without telling me, and no apology.
