The Uffizi met all my expectations and then some - Camilla was our guide for this tour. We could tell that she was passionate about art. Throughout the tour, she gave us an in depth explanation of the various sculptures and paintings that we stopped to look at. The highlight of the tour, of course, was David. She was brilliant in the way she took us to see the statue. We came around the corner and there it was. David literally took my breath away. She pointed out different things about the statue that we probably would have overlooked. A Botticelli (Birth of Venus) and The Holy Family by Michaelangelo were two of my favorites. After the tour, my daughter and I had a cappuccino on the roof and strolled through the museum.

Nowhere else on earth 🙏 - Our tour was all the richer - thanks to our guide -Mirabella. Such profound knowledge and understanding of the galleries contents, significance was delivered with true love and passion. It was a joy to see and experience such a unique collection with Mirabella encouraging us to focus on not only the truly remarkable art and surroundings, but also explaining so much of the relevance to the collection. Our whole family thanks you 🙏

This tour was great for... - This tour was great for someone who isn't super interested in art but wanted to see some of the most iconic works. The skip-the-line part is 100% worth it as some people we passed had been standing in line for over 2 hours! Our guide was very knowledgeable and shared some really interesting history/facts.

Great experience - Our guide was fantastic! She shared her passion for art as she taught us about artists and their works at the Ufizzi Gallery and Acaddemia. As we moved between buildings, we got the bonus of learning a bit about the Duomo and the political section of Firenza. We thoroughly enjoyed this tour!!

Excellent - Excellent Tour, our tour guide had the most interesting stories. The only reason I am not giving this a 5 is because we had a wait to enter at Uffizi gallery, it’s more to do with the crowds, I guess. Our tour guide found ways to get us close to all the art pieces in spite of the crowds highly recommend, likely a good tour to do early in the morning before the crowds come in.
