Ticket Only to see The David

Elaine_P, Oct 2026
This provided quick entry in to see The David and since we arrived slightly early we were able to go in at an earlier time. Worked out great!

Scam

Lisa_D, Oct 2026
This is a scam. No one showed up to the assigned spot. A generous person gave us their physical tickets

Response from Host, Oct 2026

We’re sorry you couldn’t find our host at the meeting point and had to rely on another visitor’s tickets to enter. We understand how upsetting that must have been. Please contact us privately with your booking reference so we can review what happened and follow up.

Tour guide no show and...

Sherry_Y, Oct 2026
Tour guide no show and refuse to confirm a refund for our tickets on the spot, made me wait for refund procedure

Response from Host, Oct 2026

We’re sorry for the frustration this caused. We understand you expected assistance at the meeting point and a clear answer about your ticket refund. Refund requests need to be reviewed through the booking platform’s procedure, but we’d be glad to look into your case. Please contact us privately with your booking reference.

Our purchase was simply...

Jeffrey_P, Oct 2026
Our purchase was simply to get a time entry. Online tickets were sold out. Very confusing meeting point and ticket pickup. Eventually connected with the tour guide to get our entry tickets. Then just joined a line for our time. The Galleria staff seemed overwhelmed too. But once in, the exhibits were fabulous. We bought the audioguides upon entering.

Response from Host, Oct 2026

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad you enjoyed the exhibits, and we’re sorry the meeting point and ticket collection were confusing. Our host provides the timed-entry tickets, after which visitors join the gallery’s entrance line for their booked time. We appreciate your feedback and will work to make the instructions clearer for future visitors.

Barry_R, Jul 2026
This museum is a must see! Reservations are must. Easy to find in Florence near everything walking distance. Staff was excellent!

Having a fast track entry...

Jennifer_H, Jun 2026
Having a fast track entry ticket is the best way to enter The Academia and see Michelangelo’s David. We enjoyed the self guided tour in the late afternoon.

A must

Shawn_K, May 2026
The Museum is amazing albeit very crowded. We paid for “skipping the line” but still had to wait in line BUT not as long as some - only 10/15 minutes. Again the museum and art totally worth it. The meet up was easy and the gentleman was helpful.

Very chaotic but it finally worked

Heather_H, May 2026
Lining up was very chaotic. We found the spot to meet and all 4 in my group were handed 4 different tickets with 4 different times of entry on them. We were told, “it’s fine” when asking about this and told to stand in the line. The line however, was a chaotic mess and was difficult to figure out which line to get in. It was quite ridiculous. A little more guidance would have e been helpful but the guys “working” had few words for anyone that asked. Once we figured out where to line up, the rest of it was fine and went smoothly.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for your feedback. Please note that entry ticket times and allocation procedures are managed directly by the Vatican authorities, and it is normal for group members to occasionally receive tickets with slightly different printed times while still entering together. Due to the very high number of visitors, the entrance area can sometimes be crowded and confusing, especially during peak hours and mandatory security checks. However, our staff provided the tickets and entry assistance as advertised, and we are glad to hear that once inside, your visit went smoothly.

Operator did not show

Sue_M, May 2026
The tour operator did not show so we had to request a refund and get in the regular line anyway after waiting 25 minutes for them to show. The Viator website was great about requesting the refund for us though.

Response from Host, May 2026

We already informed you in advance regarding the situation and provided the necessary update before the activity.

Don’t miss this front of the line experience!

Elizabeth_O, Apr 2026
This was great. Well worth the money. We got to the front of the line ahead of our scheduled time. A must see tour!
