Gets you through the long lines. - This was the best purchase! We waited maybe about 20 minutes. But the regular line was about a hour wait. This was the easiest process and the quickest option to get you into the Basilica. Beautiful Church

Brilliant and informative tour. Must visit if the basilica is on your Rome bucket list! - The tour was brilliant. The guide known as Gaga was fantastic and so knowledgeable. The tour started on time and although there was around a 30 minute queue for pre-booked tickets, it was so worth it to have a guide who could tell you the story and information behind everything. The experience was a must do and my family and I felt more knowledgeable leaving the basilica afterwards.

Scam- Zero skip the line service! - SCAM!!!!!!!! Do NOT book this experience with Gyash Tours! Our guide walked us in through the first check point, which had absolutely zero line all day, to only them point to the extremely LONG line of people quad up for a second scan of the same exact ticket , that line took over hour 45 minutes, meanwhile other companies were bringing their guest right past the line to the from to actually “skip the line”! We requested a refund as the service was certainly NOT provided it was denied, now we will handle directly with the credit card company. Do not book, they provide zero “skip the line” service and take your money!
