Know Before You Go: - For last-minute bookings, meaning reservations made within 24 hours before the tour start time, access to St. Peter’s Basilica cannot be guaranteed due to operational timings and access restrictions managed by the Vatican authorities. If it is not possible to include the visit to the Basilica during the guided tour, participants will be provided free of charge with a dedicated ticket to access the Basilica independently on the first available day after the tour date.
