Our guide selected specific works to focus on so we would not be overwhelmed, but she also encouraged us to ask questions about anything that interested us, and she explained clearly what was significant about each work, how it was characteristic of its period and how it was innovative for its time. This approach greatly enhanced our appreciation of works we might otherworldly have walked right past.

Very knowledgeable guide. We learned a lot about the art. We didn't have to queue and saw lots of interesting pieces.

If looking for only a brief 2 hour highlight, this tour is great. Sebastian was fantastic. Knowledgeable, calm and considerate. Would recommend him highly.

Quick Uffizi Tour

Stacy_D, Sep 2025

The Uffizi is huge. Our guide was very focused on the key paintings. She was knowledgeable and friendly. The tour was short but effective.

It wasn't the right tour for me

Diego_P, Sep 2025

The place was extremely full and you have to push your way through the multitude of tourists. I also had problems with my feet and the guide Ana didn't mention that there is an elevator.

Excellent scholarly guide

Gary_R, Aug 2025

Excellent guide who worked with wheelchair issues for us She explained a great deal about the art that I either had forgotten or never learned in Art History.

Excellent early morning tour

Marina_M, May 2025

A well -orginised tour with a knowledgeable guide from Ciao Florence. Certainly recommend this company

Good experience, guide...

Luigi_T, May 2025

Good experience, guide was very nice and friendly, the tour agency was very gentle and sent us very clear informations. However, the visit was too short and missed some important artworks that must be seen by those who visit uffizi gallery. Of course you can’t expect a tour to cover all art works, but Caravaggio and Rembrandt should have been included, as well as explanations of other sorts of artworks.

Excellent tour and guide.

Micaah_M, Sep 2024

I had an 8:30 tour recommend you try to go early as it gets crowded fast. My tour was 4 people and was great. The maximum they will do is 9. My tour guide was excellent.

Fell in love with the Ufizzi again!

Edmond_J, Jul 2024

It was a perfect tour. Our guide Chiara was expertly knowledgeable and extremely engaging. She knew the history and academic facts but also offered up the backstories and color for the pieces as she guided us. Of course, skipping the line is the best way to start your tour. I highly recommend the tour and our guide.

Great tour in Spanish, lots on information and plenty of time

Tanya_E, May 2023

The guide gave us great information. I wish we could have used war pieces because my mom had a hard time hearing in such a crowded space, but since there were only 4 of us it probably wasn’t an option. Our guide allowed us to stay and keep looking around after the tour. It was way more interesting when he was with us explaining everything. We got lost trying to get out but eventually figured it out.

Chris_Kelly00, Nov 2017

Sadly, the guide had a VERY heavy accent and she was difficult to understand. In addition, she focused a considerable amount on the history of Florence, Italy, etc...versus the actual art. Extremely disappointing.
