Not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries. Public transportation options are available nearby. Travelers should have at least a moderate level of physical fitness. Please note that you will be required to pass through metal detectors at the entrance of the square. Wear comfortable walking shoes: a moderate amount of walking is involved. Please be aware that the lines to clear security checks at the entrance of the square might take 15-120 minutes. The dome's terrace might not be accessible during bad weather conditions. In that case, you can either ask for a partial refund and visit the Basilica and the grottoes or decide to cancel the tour for a full refund. An appropriate dress-code is required in order to enter the churches: knees and shoulders should be covered. The meeting point is outside the Basilica before entering St. Peter's square and the security checks. Please note that this is not a skip-the-line tour. St. Peter Basilica or its dome can be subject to partial unforeseen closures due to Vatican Administration. Not recommended for travellers with claustrophobia.
