The tour operator was good and it has excellent staff. The ticket office is short walk from the Saint Peter’s Basilica and their staff accompanied us till the entry.
This operator is a hoax and I call out Viator for not doing its duty to screen out these scammers. You are essentially buying from the same scalpers who mill about the entrance. The scheme: you book the tour via Viator, and once you’ve purchased they just but tickets for you from another platform. Scalping!
We’re sorry for the misunderstanding. A ticket server error occurred, and to ensure you didn't miss your visit, we paid for your tickets twice at our own expense. We are honest operators who took a loss to help you. Best regards.
