About this experience
A wonderful way to start your night in Florence, and why not! After listening to the sweet melodies of the Italian opera conclude everything in a restaurant in Florence. Enter the oratory of Santa Maria vergine della Croce al Tempio, in the heart of Florence, which dates back to the early 1300s but is used today for concerts. Experience the magic of a concert of arias performed by professional singers and chosen from a variety of famous operas. Enjoy the skill of the musicians in the selections from "Le nozze di Figaro", "Tosca", "Il barbiere di Siviglia", "Madama Butterfly", "La Bohème", "La Traviata" and "Turandot".

Too short
The performance itself was good. But not as long as it was advertised and sold as. We bought a ticket saying ‘duration 1 h 15 min’. It lasted 45 min. And that was including a short break plus one extra. Not worth the price.

Outstanding Event!
Very enjoyable. Very well worth the money. The singer and pianist were outstanding! We would do this again.

First time
I had wished it was more songs that I was familiar with but the duo who performed were very talented and heartfelt. Take water with you - there is a few minute break but they don’t sell any beverages.

Perfect taste of opera for kids and newcomers!
Perfect introduction to opera for our 10 year old daughter. She loved it. The soprano was unbelievable… so skilled, such a beautiful voice with incredible control, range, and passion! Our daughter couldn’t believe there were no microphones, that she could project so well. That said, the venue was perfect - intimate, beautiful, with wonderful acoustics. The pianist was wonderful too… flawless performance. Since it was only an hour long, it’s a nice introduction to opera for anyone who is new to it. We’re happy that our youngster is interested in attending a full opera sometime in future… and shorter performances like this are wonderful as well - more accessible, more intimate. Really enjoyed it.

I was amazed by his wonderful singing ability. The piano was also very good. The church situation was also a good memory to remember.

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Great Italian Opera in Florence: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does Great Italian Opera in Florence cost?
+
Prices start at $25 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 Great Italian Opera in Florence take?
+
Plan for about 1 hour 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 Great Italian Opera in Florence worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 8 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Great Italian Opera in Florence?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Great Italian Opera in Florence suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Great Italian Opera in Florence?
+
Around 3 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 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Great Italian Opera in Florence 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 Tales - guided by a STORYTELLER, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class & Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner. 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.
