An excellent tour of the highlights of both museums - Mateo was excellent. He managed to get us through and around crowds and was very knowledgeable about how painting changed during the Renaissance period

Excellent Tour with Knowledgeable Guide - This was our second Viator tour on our recent trip to Rome and Florence, and so far, each tour has been flawless. Our tour guide, Pamela, was very knowledgeable and very patient with our many questions. She did a great job keeping our small group of 10 together as we went through the museums on an extremely busy Tuesday. Apparently Tuesdays are one of the busiest days since the museums are closed on Mondays. I had been to the Accademia as a student many years ago, but I learned more from Pamela than I did from my previous guide. Together with Pamela's insight and the ability to skip the lines, the Viator guided tour is well worth the cost.

Loved the stories that Silvi told us about the Renaissance and the progression of art during that time. - The Museums are rather overwhelming but Silvi told us the stories behind the main paintings and sculptures to help us understand what we were seeing.

Florence's Best Double Feature - Excellent short tours of the Uffizi and Accademia Galleries. Our guide took us directly to the most renowned pieces, provided engaging back stories on the artists and local history, and wove it all together in three hours.

Great tour! - This tour was a wonderful way to see both the Uffizi and Accademia, especially if you get overwhelmed by museums or have limited time. Keep in mind that this tour is focused on the highlights of each museum. Our tour guide Anna was so knowledgeable and engaging. We enjoyed this tour!

Great tour! - We had a wonderful tour with Marta and learned so much from her. She did a great job pointing out the “important” pieces and explaining the history and symbolism behind each one.

Unable to get into the Uffizi. - There was a problem with the tour agency getting into the galleries. We were given access to the galleria dell Academia to see David with a wonderful guide but never was able to get into the Uffizi at all.

Late / Rushed / Lost - While our tour guide was knowledgeable and passionate about his work, it took 40 minutes to get inside of the museum Because we were now behind schedule , we rushed through Uffizi and then he gave us 3 minutes to go to the bathroom before we walked to the Accademia. Because there was a line in the bathroom, not everyone made it out in 3 minutes. Unfortunately he left them! Both museums were very crowded and the guide did not even attempt to make sure everyone in his group was able to keep up
