What an experience for anyone. It was so moving and our tour guide made sure we were in the right spot to see the Pope go by in the popemobile. It was not enclosed that day so you really got to see him. We had seat while others who were not on a tour had to stand.

It was impossible to find meet up site. Hundreds of people and anywhere I asked they didn’t know. There is no entrance fee or tickets required. We were there at 7:15 and got good seats on our own.

This tour is NOT as advertised! We left too late from their office and they did NOT have seats reserved for us in St Peter’s square. All they did was give us a ticket and walked us to the main entry, to get in line with everyone else. Once through security, she said “Ok so the best place to sit is along an aisle.” Then sent us on our way. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! Everything they did, you can do yourself. We DID NOT, nor did anyone else, have to provide or show a ticket to get in.
We always double-check the availability with our local partners for each booking. Even though this is usually a swift process, it can take up to 24 hours. Once this process is completed you will receive your voucher or ticket by email. If our local partner is not able to confirm your booking we will offer you the best possible alternative. If the new date and/or time doesn’t fit your itinerary, we will reimburse the full amount paid.
