We faxed the Vatican Museum requesting reservations for a tour in English during our visit the first week in June. We included three time/date options in order of preference and included the names and ages of our party (6 people).
That was five days ago and we have not had any response. Should I be worried? Resend the fax? Be more patient?
Thanks.
We are doing the scavi tour in june... did not get responses for weeks, as reported to expect in the guidebooks... give it time, i am sure... they will get to it.
I disagree. Read the several other threads about Vatican Museum. All indications are they are overwhelmed and have not the resources to attend to numerous small requests. I have not heard back and it has been 3 weeks. Our travel partners bought a 'tour' to get a 'reservation' but I am skeptical they will have to stand in line like all others. I will post to this site next Friday after their attempted visit.
We emailed our request and received a response about 8 weeks later...however we are requesting entry to the Necropolis so although they have confirmed our request..we still have not confirmation or ticket...good luck.
The Vatican only sends a response if your request has been accepted. The confirmation is usually sent just a few days before so I hope you included a fax number to your hotel Rome.
Response received today from the real Vatican Museums [not third party] to the request sent about April 17. The response was for the requested day and time.
