Know before you go

  • List the full names of your companions to specify your entourage; a partial nomenclature will render one ineligible for an entrance ticket. Note that the pass only holds validity during the reservation window— remember Vatican protocol: those arriving late are not granted admission. Nevertheless, once inside the Museum, feel free to wander at leisure through its corridors and chambers until the final hour strikes on closure time.
  • When making the reservation, take into account the age of participants at the time of the tour rather than at the time of booking.
  • Avoid stating the full names of your companions while making a reservation; we cannot issue a ticket if the names are incomplete. The reservation holds only for that specific time due to Vatican regulations: be aware that if you arrive late, entry will be impossible. However, once you enter the museum, you can stay until closing hours. Take note of this tip when booking: consider the age of participants on the day of the visit rather than at the time of reservation.
