Our tour guide, Camilla,... - Our tour guide, Camilla, was wonderful! Her knowledge and presentation of the art was superb. Being able to skip the massive lines and see the major works of art was worth the price. The only regret is more time at Academia would have been good and there was still some wait time. Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to not spend all day at the museums or waiting in line all day. And if you can, ask for Camilla!

Above and beyond - We had to take a cab to get to Florence and there was an accident on the highway so we were scheduled to arrive after the tour started. I contacted Vidor. They reached out to the Tour Guide and they helped us finding the directions and waited for us. we got there at 9:15 and they were very supportive and helpful and they made the whole trip very agreeable in addition Our Tour Guide was very knowledgeable in the history of the art which made the tour fascinating.

Florence Fun! - My partner and I joined Helena and about 16 other people on the Highlights Tour of Accademia and the Uffizi Gallery. She was an incredibly informative and knowledgeable guide who helped us digest some of the art found at in Florence. She gave us context and was quite funny. We had a blast. 10/10!

Hits the important stuff - There are still lines to get through security, took maybe 30 min total. A little crowded inside, but you can still move around. The guides show you all the hilites

Buyer Beware, misleading title. NO SKIP the LINE on this tour. - This was the most disorganized, unprofessional tour I have ever been on. The title "skip the line" is not really "skip the line" First off the directions on the ticket to pick up your ticket at a different spot was incorrect. After much running around trying to figure out an employee from the Academia stated the directions were incorrect and sent me to the 2nd meeting point where I was to meet my guide. Once there I was told to sit down and wait. We started around 30-45 min late. We waited at least 45 min to get into the Academia where we only saw the music room and the David for a total of a round 15-20 min. Then off to the Uffizi where we waited 2.5 hours and never got in due to our guide having another tour at 2pm. We were offered to come back the next day but we had to pay. If you are thinking about this tour think twice. The title is misleading as "skip the line" to me it's understood I actually skip the line. Don't waste your time or money. Buyer beware!
