We really enjoyed our tour of Palazzo Vecchio with the secrect passage ways.
We entered a small door off the street and up the stairs to veiw highly decorated ceilings and walls. We also heard of the history of the Vecchio.
Tour guide was very knowledgeable.

Behind the scenes look at the secret passages with an incredible guide Martha who was phenomenal at delivering information. One of the best couple of hours I have done on a guided tour.

Our Guide was amazing she exceeded all our expectations and was so knowledgeable. We felt bad because we had double booked and only had an hour to do tour and we rushed her. But she managed to get us through in time to get to our next tour.

Our guide was very nice and funny. He told us about the history of the palace and showed us a secret passage. He answered all of our questions about the paintings and the city

We took the secret passages tour of Palazzo Vecchio. The instructions re meeting point were very confusing, they seemed to indicate a meeting point outside rhe Palazzo, however the actual meeting point is insode - near the official ticket office. You need to get your tickets validated "inside" at the Palazzo Vecchio official ticket office and then wait for the guide. However he tour and the amazing guide more rhan made up for the confusiom and stress caused by this. Our guide Sarah was fantastic - she was pleasmt, knowldgable, informative and thorough. We were a very small group of only 6, it felt like a private tour. You get to see passages, rooms and areas not accessible to orhers. It felt really special, and was just the right length. Big thumbs up to Sarah !!

The guide was super professional and we got an amazing experience exploring secret side of Palazzo. This excursion finishes inside Palazzo Vecchio so you will have an opportunity to explore further by youself. Highly recommend.

Great tour. The ticket instructions were not clear though on where to meet. Apparently it was by the lion fountain inside entrance but our tickets didn't say that so we wandered around for awhile

It was a very interesting tour conducted by an excellent guide who knew her subject and explained things well in a friendly way, all in excellent English.

Our tour guide was very good - she was very knowledgeable and therefore very interesting and informative. She gave us an understanding of the history of the palace and the people who lived there. She also took us through a secret door which showed us an extra area which was a bonus. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour.

The guided tour of the secret passages is extraordinary. Julia the guide is friendly and full of anecdotes.
Warning: the indicated meeting point is not the right one. You have to go inside to exchange the voucher for real tickets, and you'll be told where to meet.

Dr. Francesca was very clear and engaging, especially to the children I was accompanying, my grandchildren. On the other hand, I complain that I was not informed at the time of booking that the secret passages can only be explained by the employees of the old palace.

The guide was really engaging and informative. She gave us plenty of time to explore but still kept us moving. We thought it was very interesting.
My only negative was we really struggled to understand where the meeting point was and when we asked staff, we were told to wait in lines. We were there with plenty of time, but almost missed the tour. I would recommended changing the instructions to "collect your tickets from the info point, then find your guide."
