Planning a visit to the Vatican Museums in 2025 is an exciting endeavor, and at Real Rome Tours, we’re dedicated to helping you create an unforgettable experience. However, due to the unique circumstances surrounding the upcoming Jubilee events in Rome, we’ve implemented a specific procedure for booking Vatican Museum tickets for our tours. This is to ensure a smooth and seamless experience for all our valued clients.
Why This Change?
The Jubilee, a significant religious event, attracts millions of pilgrims and visitors to Rome. This influx of people significantly impacts the availability of tickets for popular attractions like the Vatican Museums. To manage the anticipated high demand and prevent any potential issues with ticket availability or validity, we require all clients booking our Vatican tours to secure their museum tickets directly through the official Vatican website.
How to Book Your Tickets:
To join one of our expertly guided Vatican tours, you must first purchase your entry tickets through the official Vatican Museums ticketing website: https://tickets.museivaticani.va/home/calendar/visit/Biglietti-Musei
This is the only authorized platform for purchasing Vatican Museum tickets. We strongly advise against purchasing tickets from any other third-party websites or resellers. These unofficial sources often charge inflated prices and may even sell invalid or counterfeit tickets, leading to disappointment and denied entry at the museum. Protect yourself from scams and ensure a legitimate entry by using only the official Vatican Museums website.
Vatican Museum Ticket Fees (2025):
- Full-Price Ticket: €25 per person
- Reduced Ticket (for children aged 6–18 and students under 26 with valid ID): €15 per person
- Children under 6: Free admission
Please note that ticket prices are subject to change, and availability may vary depending on the season and demand. We recommend booking your tickets as early as possible to secure your preferred date and time.
Step-by-Step Guide to Booking:
- Visit the Official Website: Navigate to the official Vatican Museums ticketing website: https://tickets.museivaticani.va/home/calendar/visit/Biglietti-Musei
- Select Your Date and Time: Choose the date and time you wish to visit the museums. Be sure to select a time that aligns with the start time of your chosen Real Rome Tour. Please note that during peak season and Jubilee events, time slots may fill up quickly, so booking in advance is crucial.
- Choose Your Ticket Type: Select the appropriate ticket type for your visit. Be aware of any available discounts for students, seniors, or other eligible groups.
- Enter Names Correctly: The Vatican Museums require visitors to present official ID (passport, driver’s license, or national ID) that matches their ticket. Therefore, ensure the name on your booking is identical to the name on your ID to avoid being denied entry.
- Add to Cart and Proceed to Checkout: Once you’ve selected your tickets, add them to your cart and proceed to the checkout process.
- Enter Your Payment Information: Provide the necessary payment information to finalize your ticket purchase.
- Confirmation: After successful payment, you will receive a confirmation email with your tickets. Please save this confirmation and have it readily available on your mobile device or printed when you arrive at the Vatican Museums. You can also send us a copy, so your guide will have it on her phone as a backup.
