Knowledgeable guide. - The tour guide, she is older and very knowledgeable about the history of the painting and sculptures. She informed us that there are so many, but she will concentrate on the most important pieces. She did an excellent job. I would recommend this to anyone visiting the country.

Engaging Uffizi Tour with Insightful Guide and Great Art Highlights - Valentina was our guide, she did a great job walking our group through Uffizi! Crowds were pretty sizeable on the weekend, but she ensured that our group had good spots to view pieces and provided factual commentary while keeping it interactive. Meeting spot was a little difficult to locate, but the operator was communicative in helping us find it. Good introduction tour to Uffizi and Florence, would recommend staying in the gallery a little longer to fully enjoy the gallery.

Polina was an excellent... - Polina was an excellent guide for two art novices. She made it interesting, informative and a thoroughly enjoyable experience. We learnt so much more than if we had visited the gallery on our own. Would thoroughly recommend.

Polina is amazing - Polina was without a doubt the best tour guide we had on our entire trip. She made the museum super interesting without making it boring. She found the perfect balance of information, but still moving through the theater. If I am back in Florence I’m going to get another tour with her. My brother is into art and I told him stuff about the museum and it was stuff he didn’t know and he’s been there multiple times.

Only got 1 hour of touring, not 1.5hrs - Of the 1.5hrs tour, we spent 35 mins in line to enter. We were rushed through and no guidance on other elements to consider post-tour. For $75, it felt… way overpriced.

Missed Tour / incomplete information - We missed the tour. Trip advisor did not provide the complete meeting point information. Third party tour company did not have WhatsApp and the live chat option was not available on the trip advisor app. We asked trip advisor for a full refund.

False claim - Skip the line is a false claim. We were not allowed to enter at the time reserved on the ticket. Then we were put in a separate line that was longer than the main entrance line. Our “guide” was completely useless in dealing with the gallery workers. We finally joined up with another unrelated tour and entered 1 1/2 hours after time on the ticket.
