Very good and informative guide. She really knew her subject. We did have to stay in queues for a while and it was raining. Pleased ypto have signed up though.

Ann_S

Our guide was so knowledgeable and gave us such interesting and detailed information during the tour. Highly recommend this 4 hour gem.

Dora_D

Letitia was so knowledgeable and was very patient and kept us together. She made sure we saw all the rooms in the Academia before leading us to David. These rooms I had missed on my previous visit in 2006. Also she kept up our interest during the walk past the Duomo and to the Uffizi even giving us a tutorial on good and bad gelato! The Uffizi tour was done very well with showing us the highlights but allowing the right amount of breaks to sit and catch our breath! All tour guides should be this good!

Larissa_H

This was an amazing tour with an incredibly knowledgeable host. I highly recommend this tour! It’s a great value and you’ll learn a lot.

SCOTT_M

Our guide, Rosa, was fantastic! She provided us with an amazing tour of the Academia and shared important historical details as we made our way to the Uffizi Gallery, where she continued to provide important historical information about the various masterpieces on display. An outstanding day!

This was an amazing tour. Rosa, our tour guide was fantastic. Her knowledge and insights were the best. She got our group to the front, got our pictures taken and taught us so much. Highly recommend this tour and this tour guide.

This was an excellent tour which meant we could cover the key 2 gallery’s within one day. The tour was well organized and our guide was informative and friendly; she had a great knowledge of the history of the key pieces and was able to shuffle us through the packet of tourists with ease! The one negative I will say that I thought it took way too much time to walk between the two museums - it was a walk that should have taken 15 minutes but took well over 40 minutes. In my opinion, this did not leave us enough time in the Uffizi and we missed some of the major works (I KNOW that there was no way to see the majority of the museum but an additional 1/2 hour inside would have been preferred) This is a great option if you have limited time in this gorgeous city!

Peter_D

Amanda provided great background to the what we were seeing..terrific tour guide. David is a must see and there is so much to learn. I was especially taken by the organization of the works to create a teaching environment.

Jeffrey_W

The tour began 45 minutes after the time that was scheduled because they kept adding new participants to our group which took time and I was disappointed to miss that time in the Accademia galleries. We could not go back to Accademia after the Uffizi tour. The guide had a heavy accent and was difficult to understand much of the tour.

TownsendTourer

Great tour - perfect way to see the highlights of Uffuzi and Accademia with our wonderful guide Andrea who was full of fascinating facts and knowledge, answering any questions we had clearly. We would highly recommend!
