The office from which we picked up our tickets was easy to locate, but the Palazzo itself was disappointing. Very little to see of any interet.

This is just another way to get your ticket. There is no guide included, but this does allow you to reserve your ticket. The view of the Duomo from the tower can not be bet.

It says priority ticket but there isn’t even a priority line, so you just go in like anybody else with a ticket.

I had an issue with the train to Florence, so I missed the time slot for my ticket to Palazzo Vecchio. Despite Viator's efforts to reschedule, they provided me with a new time, but it was incorrect as the attraction was closed. As a result, I couldn't visit Palazzo Vecchio and they did not refund the ticket cost.

Disappointing , this is not a museum just walked from room to room beautiful artwork repetitive and a bit boring. Rude staff

This so-called "offer" is theft. It is, quite simply, a theft by a local travel agency, City Florence Tour. I paid 29€/ticket (2 tickets...) for Skip the Line access for a location where access costs 12€ and is NOT crowded. We checked it out 3 days in a row at the end of July! Plus I had to go to the agency to pick up the tickets purchased from them previously.... So... two tips: buy another offer and bypass the non-offer City Florence Tour!

Absolute Waste of money. This is not needed the ticket at the venue is cheaper and no lines to skip for.

We definitely were glad we went ahead and bought the "skip the line" tickets. The line if you didn't have tickets wrapped around the Palazzo. Highly recommend!

Michael_D

Being able to just walk in when ready. Just need to remember to pick up the actual tickets at office, behind the Uffizi.
