About Online Vatican Tickets
Online Vatican Tickets is an independent guide to visiting Vatican City: the Vatican Museums, the Sistine Chapel, St. Peter's Basilica and everything around them. We are not the Vatican Museums or the Holy See and we do not sell tickets ourselves.
About the author: Giulia Romano
Giulia Romano is the pen name of the Online Vatican Tickets editor. She writes about the Vatican Museums, the Sistine Chapel, St. Peter's Basilica and papal history, and about the practical side of a visit: which ticket to book, when to go and how to get in without queues. Every fact she uses is checked against the official Vatican websites, Wikipedia and Wikidata, and linked next to the claim.
Where our facts come from
Prices, opening hours and rules are checked against the official Vatican Museums and St. Peter's Basilica websites. History and figures come from Wikipedia and Wikidata, climate data from Open-Meteo, place details and ratings from Google Maps, and tour details and traveler reviews from GetYourGuide. Each source is linked next to the fact it supports.
How we make money
Tour and ticket buttons are GetYourGuide affiliate links. If you book through them we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. It never changes which tickets we recommend.
