The tour guide at Uffizi was too educated for that kind of your. She spent 15-20 min on a painting and other tour guides spent 3-4 minutes. She would be a great instructor but to much detail for these yours. We all lost interest quickly, The guide for academia was very good.

Skip this tour-Currently asking for a refund!

Less than 24 hours before the visit, the time was changed from 10:30 to 11:30, disrupting our whole day's plans. The woman on the phone had so solution or answer. We had to cancel our lunch plans since it was too late to cancel the tour. We did not 'skip the line' We were supposed to start at 11:30 and did not get into security until after 12! Our guide was non engaging and very difficult to understand. We did not exit the museum until after 2 pm and no one gave us any information about where and when to meet at the Accademia. We had no time to eat since we ENTERED the museum 30 minutes after we had planned to be FINISHED. When I asked for a refund first I was told we never showed up! I have since sent time stamped photos and full explanation and I am waiting to hear back about a refund. I have used Viator MANY times and never had an issue like this, I am very disappointed with the response time. I will be contacting my credit card company if I do not get a refund.

Noted on your review. First of all, we would like to clarify that in some instances that tours are rescheduled for some urgent reasons, our staffs informs the guests of the reschedule as to let you know if you would want to proceed with the new schedule or not according to your availability, this is optional of course but since you have agreed to join the new schedule we do organize tour guides and arrange tickets for you, which of course costs us. secondly, Once you purchase a product from us the details of meeting point are written on the voucher so all you have to do is check the meeting point for the accademia Gallery on your voucher. We manage a lot of tours everyday and its rare for us to have an issue of complain after a client agrees to the new time slot for the tour. Due to number of tourists and clients purchasing skip the line tickets, and considering also that it is peak season, this is beyond our control and is not a valid reason for our company to issue refunds. If you have further concerns kindly email or contact our hotline number. Best regards

Just book it!

The tour was really well organized and the guides were informative as expected. The Uffizi gallery tour started at 10, group guides easy to locate per directions. This museum is tremendously large and we had some time after our tour (1-1.5 hours) to check some things out on our own. The Galleria Academia tour then started at 3 (we didn't realize there would be a gap in time) and went near that location later on. Used the time to get some lunch and spritz. Again easy to locate group guide per directions. Much smaller museum but enjoyed it more - and our guide was fantastic. It is silly to say that one statue is so impressive but it really is worth it!
