Extra charges, overpriced tickets, complete denial of charging extra cash in hand on the day to receive tickets.

Poor experience I feel as though have been fleeced. Booked through Viator. I did get in on the day, but only after paying extra cash in hand to the man who eventually gave me tickets. 341 euros paid plus an extra 30 euros per person demanded on the day cash in hand to get in, for my wife, daughter and I. Price on the ticket was 20 euro per person- they buy these cheap, and sell them on at inflated prices. Fed back to viator who tried to help, but the response from "tipu Sultan", who i suspect was the man who demanded the extra money, was to deny everything.

Hi, You had a booking for 3:30, you entered with our ticket at 3:30.Our ticket is skip the line that expensive,if you buy normal line 4 or 5 hours This is cheaper(Many people can't get inside even after standing for 4-5 hours)., You gave another review before(15/4/2026), I saw that same review. Both reviews had the same statement..

Vatican museum and Sistine chappie tour

It's a fantastic experience, I would recommend getting the beat the que tickets, it saved us hours of standing around. Expect the tour to take 3 to 4 hrs. It's well worth it.

Very enjoyable museum experience

It was worth getting the skip-the-line tickets to get in at an appointed time. Ticket provider on site was very helpful and went out of his way to make sure our experience was good.

Poor experience with Vatican tickets

Bought some tickets for the Vatican as they had sold out. Paid over £200. You don’t get your tickets you are directed to tour company. At the tour company they also didn’t have my tickets and the fixer came in and offered to upgrade to an earlier visit. We took this and did get in when I looked at the price of the tour it was €20 per person. Also, there are a lot of tour operators right next to the Vatican which we could’ve got tickets easily on the day. They are also advertised to skip the queue, but you do join a queue. I would advise anybody to book early or to get a tour ticket while you get there. I would not recommend this service at all.

Dear customer, you have to wait in line for 3-4 hours for tickets,but we sell skip the line tickets. You will definitely have to pay something extra for the Skip the Line ticket. Our office staff has shown you how to enter.

Perfect.

Very well organized and very kind staff. You should arrive a little earlier than the indicated time to enter really quickly
