Not allowed:

No bare shoulders or knees. An appropriate dress code is required to enter places of worship and selected museums. You may risk being refused entry if you fail to comply with these dress requirements
Large bags, backpacks, tripods, and large umbrellas cannot be brought into the museums. These items will have to be left at the museum coat check and retrieved after your visit. It's recommended to leave such items at your hotel

Know in advance:

Please note that the Basilica of St.Peter's opens late on Wednesdays and for that reason, the 08:00 tour will include a 30-minute break so the tour ends at 13:30
Comfortable walking shoes are strongly recommended
Please, advise of any travelers with mobility concerns so that we can best accommodate you
To obtain the student discount, you must show a valid student ID on the day of the tour, without it, the entry could be denied, or an integration fee must be paid
The Vatican Museums provide free entrance for visitors who are (according to the requirements stated by the Vatican City) at least 74% disabled by presenting the appropriate certification and, if one needs assistance from another person, that person also receives a free entrance. Please inform the activity provider when you are booking if you fit into these requirements, and they will remove the pricing of the entry tickets from the price of the tour
The Basilica of St. Peter's may be subject to unscheduled closings and late openings for religious ceremonies. Because these are often last-minute for security reasons, there is no time to notify the guests. The partner will provide you with a complete experience by exploring the Vatican Museums in more detail
