Is there a mandatory dress code for the Vatican tour?

Yes, a very strict dress code is enforced for both men and women. All visitors must have their shoulders and knees completely covered to enter the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel. Entry may be refused for anyone wearing shorts, miniskirts, or sleeveless tops. We strongly recommend dressing modestly to ensure you are not denied entry on the day.

What does the "Skip the Line" ticket actually let me bypass?

Our "Skip the Line" access allows you to bypass the main ticket-purchasing line, which can often stretch for several hours, saving you a significant amount of your valuable time. Please note, however, that all visitors must pass through a mandatory airport-style security check. There may be a short queue for this security screening, which cannot be skipped.

Can I bring a backpack or a large bag inside the museums?

Small backpacks and standard handbags are generally permitted inside after the security check. However, large bags, luggage, tripods, large umbrellas, and other bulky items are not allowed and must be checked. You will be required to leave these items at the complimentary cloakroom near the entrance before your tour begins and collect them upon exiting the museum complex.

Is photography allowed inside the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel?

Photography without the use of a flash is permitted throughout most areas of the Vatican Museums for your personal use. However, please be aware that photography and video recording of any kind are strictly forbidden inside the Sistine Chapel. This rule is rigorously enforced by the guards to protect the delicate frescoes, and we ask all guests to respect it.
