Enriching, Captivating - Very enriching. Paulina gave a visual tour providing us with a rich understanding in the rebirth of art techniques especially through the artists in the Renaissance and Florence.

Highly recommend for time crunched art lovers - Really great abridged tour - Paulina was exceptional - we got extremely deep in only 1.5 hours covering medieval and working our way through renaissance with amazing notes throughout, hitting all the best pieces/artists.

Outstanding Uffizi - Expect that it will be very crowded and difficult to navigate with the group and as a result difficult to see some of the works referenced. The stairs climbing up was a was a bit exhaustive. The works inside the Uffizi are exceptional beyond words. Expect to be bombarded with amazing art. Our guide Angela was very informative and narrated. The stories behind selected works. We were hardly able to see everything but could stay after and see what we had missed.

Tour cancelled - Unfortunately my tour with this company was cancelled. Luckily we have still been able to secure tickets via another avenue. Other times/dates were offered, but when you are working in with other bookings (visits to most places are timed entry), there isn't much room for change.

Missed so much of this museum - The tour guide wasted time getting started and then more time inside walking us around to an elevator. She did not start the tour from that point rather she walked us around again to the other side of the Ufizzi to start the tour. This amounted to 35 minutes wasted. She missed key paintings throughout and showed and explained about half of what she should have shown us. I was very disappointed.

Do the tour yourself if you can. - Too many people in the museum. Very loud. People taking pictures everywhere. Very hard to listen and follow audio guide. Explanations of paintings are too long. Should keep it interesting and to the point. There are so many things to see that staying 10 minutes at one painting seems illogical considering that this is a finite tour. We ended up giving the Vox audio devices back to the guide after 20 minutes and did the tour ourselves. We did two other tours with CityWonders in Rome ( Vatican and Colloseum ) and these were the best tours we had so far. Very informative and interesting. Guides knew where to go and avoid huge crowds.

Mislead and overcharged. - The service advertised “Skip the Line Entry,” which is why I chose this booking over the official tickets. However, upon arrival, we were required to wait in the same line as all standard ticket holders. No representative expedited our entry, no priority access was provided. Given that the key benefit of this booking — skip-the-line entry — was not delivered. They charged us $101 USD for 2vtickets that cost $25 each at the door.
