definitely recommend this tour to anyone traveling to Italy (Florence) with kids
We had a great time in Florence. Giulia did an excellent job with our 8 years old daughter keeping her interested and entertained with games involving Florence history, art and culture. She is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Not only kids will learn a lot of Florence with this tour but also the parents and/or other adults. We will definitely recommend this tour to anyone traveling to Italy (Florence) with kids.

Magical experience!!!
Our three generation family (including our 8 and 11 year old grandchildren) did two tours, one of the City and Academia, and one of the Uffizi, both with Martina. She is GIFTED!!! She engaged not only the children, but the entire family, with her knowledge and enthusiasm, and her focus on learning and having fun at the same time. My grandchildren are still talking about the experiences, as are we. Thank you Martina!!!

Michelangelo tour - THE BEST!!!
I wish I could give more than 5 stars for this amazing experience with Giovanna. She was the perfect person to guide my 4 kids (ages 4,7,8 and 10) on this 2 1/2 hour walking tour to discover many treasures of Florence with a focus on Michelangelo ending at the Accademia to see the David! Giovanna knew exactly how to engage the kids - through games and prizes!!! That immediately was an incentive for my kids to remain focused, listen to all the interesting stories and details Giovanna had to share and to keep them motivated the whole tour!! All my kids were so eager to search for the Florentine symbol, the fleur de lis, everywhere, and to answer little quiz questions about what they were learning to collect points to earn prizes. The prizes were adorable souvenirs we will cherish! My husband and I learned so much as well. There were stories I hadn’t heard, and I even studied in Florence for a semester, so this tour will certainly be appreciate by all ages!! Giovanna did a wonderful job of explaining the art, architecture and symbolism for my kids in a way that was meaningful and memorable. In addition, Giovanna was extremely attentive to our needs. Having 4 kids means keeping our eyes on them at all times walking through bustling crowds and across streets. Being with Giovanna was like having another parent with us. We have more tours coming up on our cruise and I wish we could take her with us!

Uffizi and Accademia with kids
We loved the afternoon spent with Rachelle. She was amazing. She kept my 10 year old son engrossed and attentive all the time. We saw Florence city, the Uffizi and Accademia with her in one really hot afternoon. In spite of the heat we thoroughly enjoyed it. Being from the area herself she explained the city to us through the eyes of a local and at the same time was extremely professional in her explanation of the art and historical places of interest. Thank you Rosanna and Rachelle for accommodating us last minute.

Michelangelo Tour for Kids with Accademia Timed Entry: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does Michelangelo Tour for Kids with Accademia Timed Entry cost?
+
Prices start at $280 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 Michelangelo Tour for Kids with Accademia Timed Entry take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 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 Michelangelo Tour for Kids with Accademia Timed Entry worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable family friendly in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Michelangelo Tour for Kids with Accademia Timed Entry?
+
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 Michelangelo Tour for Kids with Accademia Timed Entry suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Michelangelo Tour for Kids with Accademia Timed Entry?
+
Around 2 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 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Michelangelo Tour for Kids with Accademia Timed Entry 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.
