The visit to the Accademia was pretty amazing, of course the David statue was mind-blowingly stunning, but we also loved r erythingveise we saw there including the musical instruments section. As huge music lovers that was special for us (myself and my partner) It was really easy for us going on, after pre-booking with the app. Very smooth process going in to the gallery

It was nice not having to wait in a long line, and it was very easy picking up the tickets. The only thing was that I thought I was getting a headset for the gallery, but did not. Maybe I ordered the wrong ticket? Otherwise, well worth the trip to the museum!

Nice to do at our own pace but not have to queue for that experience! Enjoyed the museum although it took a while to work out the audio guide referred to a sample of exhibits only 😆. Would recommend the museum.
