  • Should not be missed. We booked on a Monday PM as time slots were available. There seemed to be no problem to get a slot on Monday.

  • Very unique place with inner weather control. So you need to reserve ticket beforehand and be there on time. Small lbout 25 meter per 7 Chapel with marvellous paintings.
  • This is the highlight of our trip to Italy. An incredible place and it truly gives you a sense of wonder and awe. They do hassle you in and out though and 15 minutes seems like such a small amount of time.
