- Many 'Rome walking tours with the Pantheon' stop outside on Piazza della Rotonda; their listings exclude entry.
- A USD 10-19 online 'Pantheon ticket' is the same entry plus a timed slot, a host and a phone audio guide.
- The Pantheon closes to visitors during Mass (Saturday 17:00, Sunday 10:30), not all day on Sundays.
