Need Reservation?
 
Hello,
My husband and I will be in Rome October 13 & 14. Do we really need advance reservations for the Borghese Gallery and if so, what is the safest and least expensive website to purchase our tickets?
Many thanks!
Michele

Yes, you do need to pre-book. They are timed tickets.

the best place to book is the gallery's website.

You need to pre-book for timed tickets but I believe you can also queue at entry without reservations and wait in a line that could be long, depending on time of year. Or maybe janis is right - only pre-booked tickets allowed in but last time I was there a few years ago I waltzed into that museum in February without much of a wait but it could vary with tour buses, etc.

If you can get them pre-book if not try to just show up if you really want to see it.
