Visiting the Ufizzi
I'm looking forward to a nice Italian vacation in March. Florence will definitely be high on the list of stops. I've heard that waiting to get into the Ufizzi could take hours but that I could make advanced reservations so that I can avoid the lines. Is this true? If true, does anyone know how easily this is done? Thanks.

There will be some people who will say that you must get reservations before you, as it will be very crowded. However, for the month of March, I'm with Vicki. Wait until you get there. When we were there in November, the only time there were lines (and they weren't that long) were before the Uffizi opened in the morning. Why spend the money unnecessarily for advanced reservation tickets, and why pin yourself down to a specific time far in advance?

The website for the Florence museum reservations is http://www.weekendafirenze.com/musei.htm <BR> <BR>It does cost a bit more than making the reservations after you arrive. But it is very easily done. We went in September and made reservations for Uffizi, Medici Chapels and Accademia. As it turned out the only long line was the Uffizi, but I only had 1 1/2 days, and it was high season, so I didn't want to risk a long wait.
