“the skip the line entry makes this ticket so worth it. there was a line backed up all the way around the building we couldnt even see the end and we were able to walk right in to the skip the line entry and were in through security in less than 5 minutes. the only thing that would have been nice would have been an audio guide as we found alot of the labels on artwork and artifacts were in Italian only and only larger ones had English and it would have been nice to know some more history. however, I do think there was an option to buy the…”

We couldn't make but I was impressed with their service calling us and communication via WhatsApp. For sure will continue using this service in my vacations. We paid the basic entrance but of course was not the same without you, Getyourguide!!”

“Our Guide was very knowledgeable- she talked non-stop for the entire 3hr tour! The tour is worth it for skipping the lines alone (which were extremely long!). If you want to explore the museum at your own pace and see all the rooms then a different tour would be better but this was great for the highlights and interesting facts like the eagle statue that inspired the American Great Seal. The explanation of the Sistine Chapel was so detailed too.”
