Fabulous Tour - This was a fabulous tour of Uffizi and Academia. The art of Uffizi did not disappoint, masterpieces. Mariela was an excellent guide. Thorough but not overpowering. Highly recommend.

Francesco was an amazing... - Francesco was an amazing guide! We learned so much about the art and the history behind it. And the walk between the 2 museums allowed for an abridged walking tour as well. And he didn’t leave us without giving us recommendations for food in the area.

Don’t hesitate to book this tour for your family. - Practically a private tour for our family. Guide was engaging and informative. We hardly waited in lines, and she knew how to get around crowds and encouraged us to stand closer to each painting.

Excellent guide - The exhibit was beautiful. I wish we had more time to see the artwork. We felt a little bit rushed. We did wait 45 minutes in line even with our tour prepaid. It was a little challenging, finding the meeting spot. But overall a wonderful tour and exceptional tour guide

Good overview of these two famous museums. - Our guide was extremely knowledgeable, especially given the huge amounts of artwork. We experienced the highlights while keeping to a tight schedule. True art scholars would want to spend hours in each museum, but for those of use with limited time in Florence, this was perfect. I only deducted a star for City Florence Tours. One person told me to return for the noon tour at 11:40. I waited in the otherwise empty waiting area until 12:05. When I inquired, I was told by another rep that the time had been moved to 12:30. Why didn't the first rep have this information? I might have used the extra time differently.

Too much for too long. - Although it was crowded and we could not move fast, the amount of information was overwhelming. I am sure there were some in the group that enjoyed it, but to us it was too much. Three hours of facts with a whisper system that did not function properly is not fun. We stopped in front of too many paintings and received information that artists would love but is not for the general man in the street. Our guide certainly knows her art but it is not necessary to do the complete course of Art 101.
