Good information before and during the visit. Almost no line because we had booked. Others stood in very long lines in the sun in front of the church. The climb up to the dome is long and strenuous but incredibly beautiful. Highly recommended from here.

Climbing to the dome of St. Peter's Basilica is a strenuous yet unforgettable experience. The ascent up the narrow, spiral staircase can be tiring, but when you reach the top and overlook the entire Vatican City and Rome, all the effort transforms into awe. The magnificent interior of the dome is exquisitely decorated, and viewing it up close allows you to truly appreciate the grandeur of the architecture and the beauty of the art. Standing at the top with the breeze blowing, a sense of tranquility and reverence fills your heart, making it a truly memorable climb.

Instructions to enter the Basilica were simple. We went on a Monday and the queue was alright. Very tiring climb up but the view was rewarding together with the beautiful art on display.

The ticket exchange staff are waiting at the designated location, next to the restaurant, with a noticeable white flag. Then, they take all the group members to queue up together. Today, the first security check took an hour and a half, and queuing to go up to the top took another hour. It's quite tiring if you're not physically fit. The tour leader said that today was already considered fast, so you should allow at least 4 hours here before booking anything else, otherwise you'll be rushing around like me.

Climbing to the top of the dome to overlook the entire Vatican City is absolutely breathtaking. The murals and sculptures inside St. Peter's Basilica are stunning, you won't want to blink! These sights truly need to be seen in person – photos only capture a fraction of their beauty.

I think booking a trip with the guys were better and faster than the normal route , the Vatican is so vast , only the trip to the top takes almost half of your day . and rest of the day can be within the basilica itself . a grand experience and it was totally worth it .

There are too many people here, and I don't think I could have gone without the help of an agency. I received a WhatsApp message in advance informing me of a time change, and a kind agency staff member helped me enter without any issues. The path up to the dome was narrow and difficult, but the view of St. Peter's Square from the top of the dome was well worth it. I highly recommend this place; there seemed to be an elevator for those with leg pain. I just walked up.

Recommend going to St Peter’s Basilica. It was a different experience going to the dome :) This ticket made the experience smooth - didnt wait in any line and the guide brought us to the entrance. Always best to go in the morning with lesser crowd.
