            Visiting Vatican -Will a Monday be (more) mobbed than other days?

            Jump to last reply Flag this topic

            I am working out tentative plans for our one week visit to Rome in the fall. This will be essentially our first visit. We were there 3 years ago for just one day before departing on a cruise. Not even an appetizer - barely an amuse!
            We will be making most of the "usual stops." Since most museums are closed Mondays, I am planning to make Monday our Vatican day. However, I'm wondering if everyone else will be having the same thought. I can't be the only one so clever! We'll be there the last week of October. I know there will be crowds, but if good scheduling can navigate around them a little, I'd love any input. I'm planning to pre-book a semi-private tour, thinking that will help us make the best use of our time. The only other spot I'm prearranging will be Galleria Borghese. Thanks for any advice
