CannonFodder Posted February 24, 2013 #26 Share Posted February 24, 2013 I believe the credit card issue was resolved. I just checked the Vatican website and it appears they take credit cards at least as of today. Apparently, they were able to work out a deal with a "guarantee" provided by a third party and resumed taking credit cards on Feb 12. Not only were the tourists put out, but the employees were complaining as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaddieEms Posted February 25, 2013 #27 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Does anyone know how much earlier than your reserved ticket time for the Vatican Museum & Colosseum do you have to show up? So say, res at 10:00 a.m., pick up tickets at 9:50 a.m.? Or even earlier (like 9:30)? Or right at 10? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaddieEms Posted February 25, 2013 #28 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Just go for it. Don't ask the guide--they will tell you no. It's much easier than it sounds. DH and I just walked straight through. Thanks. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markanddonna Posted February 25, 2013 #29 Share Posted February 25, 2013 With all the issues the Vatican is dealing with now, I bet a ticketed entrance to the Sistine is on the back burner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
