St Peter’s Basilica — Digital Audio Experience with Timed Entry

A narrated digital audio guide to St Peter's Basilica — twenty stops, on your own phone — together with a timed entry reservation for the Basilica.

Entry to St Peter's Basilica is free for everyone, so what this product adds is not the entry: it is the time. We hold a partner account with the Fabbrica di San Pietro and we buy a named, timed reservation for each person in your booking, then forward it to you digitally before your date. Nobody meets you: it all arrives by email.

Please read this, because it is the part people get wrong: the reservation gives you a time, not an exemption. Everyone passes the security check, and the Basilica's own wording is that the visit begins after QR code verification and security checks.

The reservation is issued in the name of each visitor and cannot be transferred, so we need the full name and date of birth of everyone in the booking when you book. Because we buy the reservations from the Basilica in advance, bookings close three days before your date.

The audio guide itself is the same one we sell on its own, in Italian, English, Spanish, French and German, written in each language rather than translated.
