About this tour

Make your visit to St. Peter's Basilica in Rome easier to plan with priority entry and an audio guide for exploring at your own pace. After the mandatory security check, step inside one of the world's most extraordinary landmarks and take time to absorb its atmosphere.

The 120-minute experience lets you pause at the sights that catch your eye or move on when you're ready. Listen to stories about the basilica's art and architecture, including the work of Michelangelo and Gian Lorenzo Bernini, with audio available in 15 languages. There is no live guide, so you can shape the visit around your own interests rather than follow a group schedule.

Meet at the office at Via Germanico 36, a short walk from Ottaviano Metro Stop. Keep in mind that priority entry does not remove the required security check, which may take approximately 30 minutes. Choose this St. Peter's Basilica priority entry experience for a more flexible way to discover the landmark, one detail at a time.

How this score is calculated

This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.

How the score works
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
