We visited two amazing...
We visited two amazing museums and other historical sites in Florence. Our guide had expert knowledge of the artwork and artists. She made it an exciting experience. We highly recommend this tour.
Response from the operator: Dear Mr George, thank you for your review, we really appreciate! Regards

Giovani brought art to life on this tour.
Giovani used a lifetime of knowledge to teach us about Florentine culture, politics and history. His engaging character blending humor and academic expertise brought the most important lessons on the birth of the Renaissance and the primary characters involved. A fascinating experience a person can only gain by walking through time with a gifted teacher such as Giovani. He whets the appetite to dive further into this time period and better understand art history. I gained a great appreciation for how these ‘craftsmen’ (as they were known then) became masters of art and influenced the civilized world.

Giacomo is great tour guide
Giacomo was a great guide! We had a very good tour with him and he was very knowledgeable of history of all areas we saw. I most enjoyed talking to him after lunch having an espresso! Seeing the real statue of David with his explanation was a wonderful experience!
Response from the operator: Thank you!

Florence Private Full-Day with Uffizi and Accademia Gallery: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does Florence Private Full-Day with Uffizi and Accademia Gallery cost?
+
Prices start at $510 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Florence usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Florence Private Full-Day with Uffizi and Accademia Gallery take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Florence is not rushed.
Is Florence Private Full-Day with Uffizi and Accademia Gallery worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 53 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Florence Private Full-Day with Uffizi and Accademia Gallery?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Florence Private Full-Day with Uffizi and Accademia Gallery suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Florence Private Full-Day with Uffizi and Accademia Gallery?
+
Around 19 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Florence can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Florence and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Florence Private Full-Day with Uffizi and Accademia Gallery start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Florence within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Florence?
+
On Outty we rank every Florence experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Best tour in Florence: Renaissance & Medici -by a storyteller, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class with Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Florence?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Florence?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Florence Private Full-Day with Uffizi and Accademia Gallery?
+
Included: Private tour; Professional guide; Entrance Tickets and reservation Galleria Uffizi e Galleria Accademia; and Walking tour of the city + Uffizi + Accademia. Not included: Hotel pickup and drop-off; and Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Florence Private Full-Day with Uffizi and Accademia Gallery?
+

What languages is Florence Private Full-Day with Uffizi and Accademia Gallery offered in?
+
