Does this include entry to the Vatican Museums?

No. This ticket covers the audio guide app only. You will need to purchase a separate Vatican Museums entry ticket.

Do I need an internet connection inside the museum?

No. Once you have downloaded the app and the guide content, it operates fully offline — useful given the patchy connectivity inside the museums.

Can I share the app download with my travel companion?

Each ticket grants access to a single app download for one device. If you are travelling as a pair, you will each need your own ticket.

Which app do I need to download?

The guide runs on the POPGuide app, available on iOS and Android. Download it before your visit and enter the redemption code from your booking confirmation.

Can I cancel if my plans change?

Please check the cancellation policy shown at checkout, as terms depend on how far in advance you cancel.

Do I need to print anything?

No printed ticket is required for the app itself — your redemption code will be in your booking confirmation email. You may still need to present a ticket (printed or mobile) for museum entry.
