Beautiful church. It was... - Beautiful church. It was easy to get inside with the guide. The terrace and access to Pala d’Oro is not included in the entrance. You can buy it inside with a QR-code, but the WiFi connection is so bad it took a solid 20 minutes to get the tickets. I would recommend to buy it before you go inside.

Not that great of an audio guide and limited access to other areas of the bascilica. - The bascilia is beauitful, but the audio guide was not great. It was difficult to see the areas that the guide was describing. Also, it was very crowded and not easy to just stand there and listen. Make sure you bring earbuds or headphones to connect to your phone! It may have been easier to just ask for details with ChatGPT. There are also areas that could not be visited with this tour like the museum with the four horses. I think a tour with all areas and perhaps a tour guide with earbud audio would be better.

Disappointment - We thought audioguide was a stocked set. We weren't aware that we had to use our cell phones that were empty.

For us it's a very expensive scam - We had taken a wire cutter with audio guide and we had a QR Code to load an application that was very difficult to load.

Little added value - It only serves as an entrance ticket purchase. I expected something more. The audio guide was also not clear enough.

Avoid and book direct - This was a waste of time and money. Better to book a ticket directly via the website- half the price and avoids spending time hanging around waiting for the rep to show up and organise entry. We live and learn.

Refunds are nearly impossible - I accidentally bought this ticket for the wrong day. But you can get a refund if requested 24 hours in advance, which I did. They hemmed and hawed (although they did respond) until 24 hours passed. No refund - time expired.
