Excellent cultural experience
We really enjoyed our tour with our guide, Alessandra She was very informative and gave us great insight into the works of the great masters of art and the time and places. She shared her knowledge with passion. Thank you. Brenda & John (Ireland)
Response from the operator: Thank you so much, Brenda and John, for taking the time to share this lovely 5 star review! We are absolutely thrilled that you enjoyed your private tour so much. Alessandra is an exceptional guide, and we are so glad her deep passion for the Renaissance shone through during your time together. It is one thing to look at the works of the great masters, but having a guide who enthusiastically connects the art to the specific times, places, and history of Florence completely transforms the experience. Thanks to our reserved tickets, we are so glad the entry process allowed you to transition smoothly into the galleries so you could focus entirely on Alessandra's wonderful insights. Thank you for choosing Florence and Global to experience the magic of Florence. We send a warm thank you back to Ireland and hope to welcome you both against the next time you visit Italy!

Ask for the Rose of Firenze for an incredibley classy experience.
Ask for the Rose of Firenze! This amazing woman will take you on not just a tour but an experience and education all at once. She taught me to experience what you are looking at THEN take a picture and also snap a second pic of the placard so you have it for yourself in the future. I can say her guidance changes how I explored Italy for the rest of my trip. She showed us what mattered and encouraged us to expand from there. I urge you to ask for Rose as your guide. None can surpass the Rose of Firenze!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this truly wonderful and heartfelt review. We are absolutely delighted that you had such a transformative and meaningful experience with "the Rose of Firenze." Your description of her as providing not just a tour, but a true experience and education, is a testament to her unique gift and her decades of experience as a guide in Florence and beyond. We love hearing about the valuable lesson she taught you to be present with the art before taking a photo and we are so incredibly proud that her guidance changed how you explored the rest of Italy. That lasting impact is the greatest compliment we could ever receive. She is indeed a seasoned professional who knows how to reveal what truly matters, and we are incredibly fortunate to have her on our team. We wholeheartedly agree that none can surpass the Rose of Firenze! Thank you for your incredible recommendation. We hope to welcome you back again someday.

The "OG" stamp of approval says it all – Rosa's experience and reputation are invaluable assets to our tours. Thanks for the glowing review and recommendation – we're delighted Rosa's tour exceeded your expectations!

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Uffizi and Accademia Time Entry Hidden Art Walking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does Private Uffizi and Accademia Time Entry Hidden Art Walking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $125 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 Private Uffizi and Accademia Time Entry Hidden Art Walking Tour take?
+
Plan for about 4.3 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 Private Uffizi and Accademia Time Entry Hidden Art Walking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 24 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 Private Uffizi and Accademia Time Entry Hidden Art Walking Tour?
+
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 Private Uffizi and Accademia Time Entry Hidden Art Walking Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4.3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Uffizi and Accademia Time Entry Hidden Art Walking Tour?
+
Around 8 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 4.3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Uffizi and Accademia Time Entry Hidden Art Walking Tour 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.
