Rome St. Peter's Basilica & Dome Priority Entry Ticket with Elevator

Enter St. Peter's Basilica without waiting
through a special entrance

At your booked time, meet the staff at the meeting point next to the Vatican walls and head to St. Peter's Basilica. After priority entry through a special entrance, explore the basilica freely without a guide and admire its history and artworks.

Take the elevator up to the basilica terrace

Ride the elevator comfortably up to the terrace level of the basilica. From the inner ring of the dome you can see the mosaics up close from the same height as the artist who designed them, and from the outer ring you can look out over the Vatican and the city of Rome.

Climb 320 steps to the top of the dome

From the terrace, walk up 320 more steps to reach the top of the dome. At the top, a special panoramic view of the Eternal City of Rome unfolds before you.

※ The elevator only goes up to the terrace level; you climb the stairs to the top of the dome.
※ Between 7:00 and 9:00 a.m., all explanations, including the use of radio guides in the Vatican Grottoes, are prohibited so as not to disturb the liturgy.
