  • There is an amazing new archeological site in Vatican City - the Vatican Necropolis at the Via Triumphalis. This is a real City of the Dead - over 1,000 square meters of incredibly intact tombs from Ancient Rome.
    These tombs date from the time of Emperor Augustus through to Emperor Constantine and are mostly of ordinary Romans - laborers, artisans, slaves, and freedmen. The site yields incredible insight into the lives of everyday Rome and its people.

    Hello and thanks for the vids! I have just booked this tour and am very excited for it! I do have a question that is somewhat unrelated - I see in this video, at the 9:06 mark, that there are people wearing shorts. You specify at the end of the video about the dress code and that knees are to be covered. This is confusing ... are shorts allowed in certain spots? I'm going to be visiting in just about 3 weeks and it's going to be very hot. Just would like some clarification so as not to be surprised on the spot. Thanks!

    • @Romewise
      @Romewise  17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks for watching. I hope you have a wonderful tour. I loved this visit! As to the dress code, inside the Vatican museums, there is not strict dress code, but inside any holy place like St. Peter's Basilica and the Sistine Chapel, there is a dress code. Part of the dress code is no bare knees. At the 09:06 mark, you see some people inside Saint Peter's Basilica in knee-lengthy shorts. These are almost always allowed as long as they come to the knee. I say almost, because it depends on the guard. To be safe, I'd suggest longer cool linen or cotton pants, or you might consider those hiking pants where you can remove the bottoms.

    As usual, Elyssa, an amazing and informative video! As a tour guide myself, I very much appreciate you providing the practical information visitors really need to know.
    Based on your advice, I went on the Vatican Museums website, and was able to book tickets for Friday, 19 April. The only time available was 3:30 pm. Am I guessing that's the time that the one tour is held every day? What would you say the max size group they are allowing?
    The only thing that was confusing about my booking was that I had to figure out that the tour listing was under 'Archeological Sites' (well, duh) rather than the ticket section for Museums. I'm glad that you told us tickets are only available on Fridays and Saturdays, because that's not mentioned anywhere on the site description (that I could see).

    • @Romewise
      @Romewise  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks so much, Nina, for all your kind support! I'm glad you were able to book it! Yeah, I tried to show how to book on the Vatican Museums website, and I selected Archeological areas, but I think even if you choose "Museums", you'd see the Necropolis as available to book when you looked on a Friday or Saturday.
      Our group was about 20 people. They only let in one group at a time...I tried to convey that in my video, that we were the only group inside. So it's calm and relaxing. I am sure you're going to love it!

      Thank you so much! First of all, they are not selling tickets to this until mid-March. Second of all, the tour only goes on Fridays and Saturdays. Third, if you are looking more than 60 days out, you will not find it available. I hope that helps!

    • @Romewise

    Hello! is there a place to park strollers etc before entry? what age do you think this would be appropriate for as we have a 1 to 13 years old with us.

    • @Romewise
      @Romewise  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hmmm, I don't remember there being any place to store a stroller before entry. Check these vatican museums official pages for more details:
      www.museivaticani.va/content/museivaticani/en/organizza-visita/consigli-utili.html
      www.museivaticani.va/content/museivaticani/en/organizza-visita/servizi-per-i-visitatori/mv-family-friendly.html
      The official site also states this when you go to book your ticket of the Via Triumphalis:
      "N.B.: This tour is not recommended for people with walking difficulties and strollers. All children under the age of 13 must be accompanied by an adult. Visitors are advised to wear appropriate shoes."
      Sorry I don't have more specific info. I think your 13-year old will love it, but if you have a 1-year old (did I understand correctly), you may have to carry him/her.

      Have another watch of Elyssa's video: she says the tickets are booked through the Vatican Museums website. So not the Scavi office. I presume, like all other tickets on the Vatican Museums site, they are available 60 days in advance. I just purchased a 3:30 pm ticket for Friday, 19 April.

      Nina is correct - as I mentioned in the video, this visit is different from the visit to Saint Peter's tomb in almost every way, including where you book it and including the fact that it's not connected to other parts of the Vatican you can visit. And like many Vatican tours, you can't book more than 60 days in advance.

    • @Romewise
      @Romewise  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for your kind comments! When you see men inside the basilica wearing shorts, those shorts come to their knees. Even then, it's always a risk because you never know if an overly conservative guard will stop you from entering if your knees are not covered. If you want to err on the side of caution, I suggest lightweight linen pants or hiking trousers that have a removable bottom leg.
