Florence Bargello Museums Cumulative Ticket

I am trying to figure out how one purchases the Bargello Museums cumulative ticket (18 eu) ahead of time - https://www.bargellomusei.beniculturali.it/musei/1/bargello//. Also whether the cumulative ticket allows you any entrance time reservations. I know these locations and lines are not as busy as other Firenze sites but want to make an informed decision ahead of travel (end of April. ) The Bargello currently is also taking part of the Donatello exhibition shared with the Palazzo Strozzi.

Individual tickets for the various museums ((Bargello - 12 eu, Medici Chapels - 9eu, Orsanmichele - 4eu, and Casa Martelli - free but reservations required ) can be purchased online with a 3 euro surcharge for each museum. Only the Bargello online ticket options include the 18 eu cumulative ticket option with 3 eu reservation charge, you pick the entry time from the available dates/times, but there is no way to specify times for the other museums. "A combined ticket costing only € 18.00 (instead of € 34.00) allows the holder to visit the Museo del Bargello, Cappelle Medicee, Palazzo Davanzati, Orsanmichele, Casa Martelli enjoying priority admission to all the museums in the circuit."

I will be sending an email query to [email protected] as well.

Thanks

Could be that the ticket only requires you to make a timed-entry reservation for the Bargello as that's the only one of the museums included which even offers an advance purchase option for the cumulative ticket on the b-ticket website? I'll be interested in what they tell you 'cause there's no reservation info for this ticket on the site. 🧐

Oh, and Palazzo Davanzati is closed until June 23.

The site also says that reservation for Casa Martelli is optional (look under "Free Entry"):

So the reply back was
"if you reserve the Cumulative ticket, you can visit all the Museums of Bargello: National Museum, Medici Chapel, Palazzo Davanzati, Orsanmichele Church and Casa Martelli.
You must reserve the entrance only for visiting National Museum; then you can visit the other Museums. The ticket is valid 3 days."

and I assume this means I have to plan on visiting the Bargello first (at the reserved time) and then visit the Medici Chapel and others later. Rather than for instance visiting the Medici chapel on a Wednesday, the Bargello on a Thursday, then one of Orasnmichele (interior)/Casa Martelli on the Saturday when they are open.

If anyone is just interested in just the Medici chapel and concerned about lines, there are reservations on b-ticket via https://www.bargellomusei.beniculturali.it/musei/2/medicee/

Thanks for this! I had a feeling that only the Bargello would require timed entry - 'cause of that one being the only one included in this group that's offering the cumulative ticket on the b-ticket site - but always best to hear it from the horse's mouth. :O)

Yep, I'd assume you'd have to visit the Bargello first but maybe not? Maybe that's another question for them to answer?
