Overall good experience

The hostes tour was super! The ladies who hosted us were very nice, showed us the entrance and gave us good tips for the tour. Would recommend! It is normal that in the top visited places to be long cues and a lot of people. It takes time and patience but tottally worth the money and the visit!

Perfect!

We had limited time in Rome, and at the last minute, decided to try to go the Vatican Museums -- but we hate waiting in lines (and didn't have time to wait!) Quickly searched Trip Advisor, and found Skip the Line. It was PERFECT. Literally got us in, avoiding the multiple hour wait. Our "guide" zipped through, got us our tickets, and even gave us a hint on how to get into St,. Peters. Don't be confused, this is not a guided tour. It just gets you in without waiting. It was exactly what we wanted and worth every penny.. Note that is was PACKED. Lots of tours stopping in the middle. Lots to see.

Excellent

I was a little nervous about the trip due to the slight random nature of the meeting point but I really needn’t have worried! Got an email the day before our excursion from our guide just confirming the details and giving us his name and a contact number. He was exactly where he said he would be and gave us our paperwork which we exchanged for tickets once inside the Vatican. Completely worth the money to skip the line - when we came out the queue to get in was enormous! Would totally recommend!

You must do this or stand in line for hours

Pay the money and get right to the beauty. Enough with the long lines, its once in a lifetime experience so just do it you will not regret it. Maybe a half hour in line and once it opened we were on our way in.

Great Service!

Our guide Paolo provided a great service!Within half an hour we were able to get into the museums, everything was super easy and quick even though it was a really busy day at the Vatican. Paolo even came in and helped us redeem our tickets when we had passed Vatican security. He also gave great tips on how to navigate the museums and make it into the Basilica without having to wait for hours. Highly recommend this!

save time and go with this!

Skipping large queues of bustling fellow tourists while saving money is worth while and saves you money too. The web booking gives you a printout but is not an entrance ticket as that is only given at the group booking desk which is inside the Vatican Museum entrance but first you must exchange the printout for another ticket that you collect from an agent (ViaTunisi 3) which is easy to find as it's at foot of a set of which are on opposite side of the road to the museum entrance. Walk down the steps and you'll find the agent. Good luck and enjoy....its worth it!
