This tour was a good introduction to the Uffizi. It started and ended at the scheduled time, and the meeting point was easy to find. Our guide Matteo was very knowledgeable and professional. He gave us insight into how the political, cultural and economic conditions of Florence influenced artistic development from the pre-renaissance period up to the renaissance. He also explained the evolution of artistic development during this period.

This private tour was fantastic! Francesca was so thorough and knowledgeable. We were able to skip the long lines and efficiently move to the art that we wanted to see. We learned a lot and felt relaxed in the Uffizi gallery. We highly recommend this private tour!

A Fantastic Tour

MildredZarah_G, May 2026
The Uffizi could get overwhelming without someone to show you the highlights, but Natalia was such a great, knowledgeable guide who made it digestible for us. This is a great tour to book if you’re short on time but want to see the best of the museum.

We loved the museum, but...

Patrick_d, May 2026
We loved the museum, but unfortunately our guided tour, led by Laura, felt extremely rushed. It also seemed she was focussing on the topics we weren't particularly interested in, such as other facts about Florence in general. We would have loved to hear about the art from an artistic point of view, such as how it was made and what it resembles.

Our experience today...

Maureen_L, May 2026
Our experience today with Ana was fabulous. She is very knowledgeable and passionate about the art works. We thoroughly enjoyed learning about these master pieces from her. Our only problem was other group tours met on the street so we were a little late joining the group as we were looking on the street for our guide and group, not realising it was in an office.

A lot of time was spent...

Stephen_Y, May 2026
A lot of time was spent waiting in lines. Only a few rooms on the upper level were covered . The guide knew the material but not very enthusiastic.

Florence tour

Jeanne_B, May 2026
Our guide was lovely but thr tour was eay too detailed. I studied art history and found it interesting but I could see others were overwhelmed with the detail .

Want to learn some art history?

Kaili_H, May 2026
I learned so much art history on this tour which really allowed me to understand the art and their displays throughout the whole of the museum. Highly recommend. Our guide was great, but I cannot remember his name. Please tell him thank you!

The museum was crowded,...

Conchita_L, May 2026
The museum was crowded, but the tour guide, was excellent and personable. She took us through the crowds very efficiently and made sure we stayed together. We were able to see the works of art close and from different perspectives.

Good Tour and Good Guide

Rebecca_M, May 2026
This tour was great for getting through the Ufuzzi in the short amount of time we had. She showed us the highlights and some things we didn’t have time to wait for that. We might want to see some other time.

Angelo was very knowledgeable and made the experience really great. He had fantastic insight and gave interesting perspectives and history of all the art pieces that this tour showcases.

A must do in Florence

Carin_D, Apr 2026
Angelo made the art come to life with his depth of knowledge and passion for art and history. We wished we had him with us for the entire day! Highly recommend using a tour guide for The Uffizi. Our history loving, teenaged children loved the tour just as much as we did.

Brief and complete. In a crowded museum with so many things to see our guide very smoothly took us through in a educational and efficient manner

Deborah_D, Apr 2026
Gallery and guide were great but. Way too overpriced. Hour wait to get into gallery and one hour tour. Good tour, excellent guide but not worth the money

Fantastic art experience

Great tour!

Bobby_B, Apr 2026
Laura our guide was so good. Such knowledgeable and excellent English. We learned so much. We highly recommend this tour!

Good guide, but rushed highlights

Michael_R, Apr 2026
Meeting point was easy to find. We still had to wait in line for quite a while, but were then let in faster. The tour itself is quite short, especially considering the waiting time. Because of this, we only saw the most important highlights and missed others (for example, the Medusa). The explanations from the guide were very good.

Uffizi tour

Michelle_T, Apr 2026
Great tour! Fun, easy, and informative. Tour guide was lovely and so knowledgeable. We couldn’t stump her

Informative, Fun, and Well-Paced Tour

Hanna_S, Apr 2026
Great tour! Our guide was super personable and did an amazing job walking us through the must-see pieces without it feeling overwhelming. Learned a lot and really enjoyed it—highly recommend!

We really enjoyed Guido’s...

Calum_M, Mar 2026
We really enjoyed Guido’s tour of the Uffizi. He included Florentine history, an excellent overview of the new features of Renaissance art, and context for some important paintings.

Great Time Experience

Rdz_M, Mar 2026
The experience was well organized and right on time. The guide was very personable and made the tour engaging from start to finish. Due to the large number of visitors, we did a fast-track tour, which was incredibly helpful. Despite that, our group remained small and enjoyable, which made the experience even better. For a first-time visit, I highly recommend it!

really well run tour. reccomend

patrick_f, Mar 2026
probably best to have a guided tour.. helps get through lines/queues/ security faster. please not e for this activity youre meant to go to the office which is about 300 m from the uffizi gallery entrance.. you can sit there comfortably while everyone qrivea.. you all get a headaet so yr guide can speqk via microphone.. tour was excellent.. took just under.2 hrs and covered most of the important works with good explanations.. when we attended march 26 lifts mostly broken so quite a few stepa to get to second floor. overall excellent

Tour length not as advertised

lisa_n, Mar 2026
Tour did NOT last 1 hour and 45 minutes. It was an hour total AFTER navigating our way into the museum. This was also after we were charged then asked the day before to change our tour time as there were not enough people in our time allotment. Our guide Laura was knowledgeable and friendly.

Call me ignorant but I...

Jonathan_S, Feb 2026
Call me ignorant but I really didn’t realize how jam packed the Uffizi Gallery was with absolute masterpieces. The guide really does provide a lot of insight that allowed us to appreciate the artwork even more. You really cannot miss this experience.

Epic line failure

Steve_M, Dec 2025
Never got in. The line, while organized, was an hour wait before entering for a 1:45 minute tour. We left before entering so I’m not sure if the group actually got in before the tour ended. I don’t think the tour company or guide is to blame as they said this venue oversells this so much this actually happens quite frequently. Hopefully Viator will refund the tour?

Marco is an Excellent Tour Guide!

Linda_G, Dec 2025
The tour guide was awesome! Explained things clearly and well and made the experience engaging and delightful! Provided suggestions for authentic Florentine meals and shopping.

Wonderful experience

James_C, Nov 2025
Very personal. Guide answered any all questions. Took her time to explain the history and meaning of all art works.
