The Best Uffizi Experience: A Guided Tour with Expert Insight - We had a 2.5-hour early access guided tour of the Uffizi with a small group, and it was a highlight of our trip. Our guide, Elisabetta, was incredibly knowledgeable, bringing the art to life with rich historical context and insights. We highly recommend opting for the longer tour and a small group to fully appreciate the Uffizi, one of the greatest art museums in the world!

The best way to visit the Uffizi gallery - Great way to see the highlights of the Uffizi gallery and skip all the queues! Ilaria was a great guide and had excellent local knowledge not just about the art but the building and history of the gallery.

Amazing! Early is the way to go! - Elisabet is a great story teller and gave us a lot of information in an engaging way with bits of humor too. The early morning tour let us get close to all of the pieces so Elisabet could point out details that I would have missed without a guide. The small group made it easier to navigate through the museum to see all of the highlights. At the end Elizabeth gave us some tips for exploring the museum on our own. The museum was much more crowded by that time. So glad we went early.

A great way to see the Uffizi Gallery - We would highly recommend this tour as the guide everything was well organised and there was no queuing involved at all Our guide was entertaining and etremely well informed and ensured that we could see all the significant art works of the extensive collection. Following the tour we were able to stop at the gallery cafe on the terrace and then work our way through at our own pace to see any sections we had not seen. Our guide shared her passion for art and Italian history in an engaging and entertaining manner.

A must for your visit to Florence. - We had the most wonderful guide in Gianna, her passion for art and love of its history brought every painting to life for us. Details we would never have noticed without her. The gallery is amazing and well worth the visit. We will remember it always.

Good tour - The whole idea for buying this tour is to beat the crowds and get in early. One couple was way to late to the agreed meeting time and we did not appreciate the tour guide waiting for them. We should have started on time. The policy states that you will be left behind. Other then this annoyance the guide was great and we had a good tour before the crowds came. This tour only encompasses the second floor and you are on your own for the first floor. Nice view from the cafe to take pictures of the sky line.
