Uffizi and Accademia Guided Tour

Our guide was fantastic. The context and color she added to our tour was incredibly helpful for our entire Italy trip. It layed a great informational foundation and understanding of some of the Renaissance greats.

Another great tour. Our guide was amazing unfortunately had forgotten her name but she was originally from Sicily and studied ancient history. A very small intimate group that consisted of my boyfriend and I and, a mother and daughter we had met on an earlier tour to the Academia that same day. I personally liked the very small group, as it allowed for a quick start and swift entry into the museum. Our guide was very knowledgable and there was plenty of time and room for questions that were well answered. Paintings discussed in detail as well as historical context to the time period and the artist behind them. A well timed tour that left us feeling like we had covered the important parts, and were free to do as we pleased and revisit areas we wanted to see again, at the end of the tour. Highly recommended.

Our guide Lori was absolutely amazing during this tour. She was enthusiastic and engaging. Her knowledge, detailed but not overwhelming. It was great to listen along to a story that provided context not only to the artwork/pieces on display, but also Michaelangelo personally and the kind of person he was, as well as a quick revision of Florence's history and other families/artists like the Medicis in an interesting way with fun facts. A well executed tour, timed well through the rooms and with plenty of time to analyse Michaelangelo's David up close and in detail. Highly recommended.

There was an unexpected change and my tour time was moved up, i was frustrated and the staff gave me a great plan so that i can see as much of the attractions as possible for the few hours i was staying in Florence. Our guide was such a great one. Her English (American accent) was very easy to understand, she was energetic and engaging. She talked for 90 minutes straight and i listened very carefully for 90 minutes straight. I couldn't stop listening. The information i got, mix of religion, history, economy and art was outstanding. Analyzing the art was exactly to my taste. Definitely recommend!

Small group, efficient and knowledgeable guide. I loved learning and getting a deeper perspective on sculptures of Michael Angelo..

As promised we 'skipped the line' (which was very long & confusing). Sara our guide was very interesting & week informed. A very enjoyable tour!

The guide was knowledge and it was very interesting! My kids (13, 11, 7) and I all had a great time and learned a lot! Hardly any wait in line to get in, and didn't feel rushed in the exhibit at all. Spent a lot of time at the David and from multiple angles. Loved it! It was my first experience with a guided tour and I so glad we did it! BUT I am disappointed with the back end of things - when booking the tour it said to meet far away from the accademia and instead to meet near the uffitzi - thst didn't make sense to me, so I chatted online with someone and they confirmed the location and that we'd walk with our guide over. The day before the tour I got an email confirming that same location. When we arrived I was told we were at the wrong location and needed to hurry over to the meeting spot by the accademia. We then needed to RUN through the city to get there on time so we wouldn't miss the tour. We arrived sweaty and frazzled. The tour guide was fantastic, but the communication leading up to the tour was not good.

From the start very welcoming and organised at the meeting point. Smooth transition into museum. Stephanie was very informative and interesting guide who made sure our experience was perfect! We had a super day Sheila & Judy UK

We were organized by staff and family Ben our tickets. Sarah was our guide and it was a beautiful experience. She shared historical stories and knowledge about the building and artwork inside. She shared info about working with marble and chalk to create a statue. I highly recommend this experience.

Everything organized to perfection and our guide Ilaria very good guided us with competence and efficiency to make the best guided tour of the Uffizi in the time provided, both my husband and I highly recommend her, Adele Neri

We were informed there was a potential problem with our reservation and they needed to change the time. We were notified and I explained that it was impossible for us to change our times since we were on the cruise ship and had no control on whine. We're going to be available and that was why we picked the times we had in advance. They worked with us to get us in at our scheduled time. Very great service!

The tour guide Mariogesu was incredible. What a profound insight only the workings of Michelangelo and a real experience to savour: everyone who comes to Florence should do this tour.

Annette was amazing. Her knowledge of Michaelangelos and his work was truly wonderful. Her presentation of the facts were nicely put together. She was easy to understand and used the microphone so I had no problem hearing her in the busy noisy setting.

Our guide was amazing, knowledable and humorous. We love the rich history of art in every corner of Italy! Definitely recommend this tour.

The guides were knowledgeable and fun. Ticketing was easy with directions to the meeting spot. Everything came off very and professional.

Our guide was wonderful and I am so glad we did the tour. We learned so much more versus walking around on our own. It was worth every penny.

Stefania (our tour guide) was magnificent!! Expansive explanations, very good situation management, good interaction with everyone in the group. Her knowledge made it possible for us to understand and appeciate the art we were seeing.

We skipped the line as promised and our guide was full of knowledge that she gladly shared with our small group. The small group number added to the individual feel of the tour. Our one hour was spent talking in depth about Michaelangelo and then viewing his David. The background info on Michaelangelo was great. The only thing that could have made the tour better was if we'd had more time to spend with our guide throughout the entire gallery, but that was all the time we had to devote. It certainly would be worth a trip back.

Very fast line, outstanding tour with dedicated information. I also felt it was flexible if you wanted to do something else.

The guided visit to the Uficci, with Ivan, was wonderful. A Florentine guide, an expert in art, entertaining, friendly and very rigorous. We loved the experience
