“The basilica itself was beautiful. This is just skip the line ticket with audio guide. we had to meet the guide to get the tickets ( make sure you read all instructions). they send you a voucher, these are not the tickets. After we got the tickets from the guide we all had to wait to enter. Someone in the party was late. I wish we could have just went in on our own but we had to wait for the whole group to use the tour guide (shorter) line. The regular line does move pretty quick but it is long.”
