Insider Tip

Picture
On a recent trip to Italy we were in Rome with guests, in cold and rainy weather. We did not care, as we were off to see the Vatican Museums and the Sistine Chapel. Our guests had no idea what was in store for them as we passed a line several blocks long of around 500 ​people waiting in their rain ponchos. At each checkpoint our guests hesitated as I kept smiling. We stopped at a separate entrance, for people that had a reservation, and were admitted with no waiting.

I cannot believe that people do not take some time before they leave to find out how to skip the line. But of course it is hard. There are so many on-line travel agencies that look like official sites to book your skip-the-line tickets. The Vatican runs its own site. You can book your tickets starting two months before your desired visit. Put it on your calendar and start booking right when the tickets open up. Choose between a guided or self guided tour. Remember first thing in the morning or two hours before they close are the best times that I have seen. It is always crowded, but these are the periods when you might have less people. Here it is-the official site to book your tickets- Official Vatican Museum Site
