After check-in, you will be assigned to a group and accompanied by our host to access St. Peter’s Basilica and continue toward the Dome.

Important Information (Applies to All Options)

All visitors must pass through mandatory security checks, including metal detectors, before entering St. Peter’s Basilica. These controls are managed exclusively by Vatican authorities and cannot be bypassed or skipped under any circumstances.

As a result, the total duration of the experience may vary depending on waiting times at security. Queues can change significantly based on seasonality, crowd levels, and any religious ceremonies or special events taking place inside the Basilica.

Our agency has no control over these procedures or waiting times.
