Camilla was our guide in Florence. She was amazing! Young, energetic and passionate about the history of art, music, Medici’s and all the other notable figures of Florence. We learned so much from her perspective and it was very educational. It was great to skip the longggg lines with her too!

Caroline_D

We had a private tour of Academia and Ulfizzi Galleries. We forgot our guides name! She was amazing! Perfect English, degrees in the arts, spoke to us not at us. She walked at our pace and encouraged us to ask questions about our points of interest. We had the best day, she understood that some things bring you to tears. Go with this tour company. Hope that our girl is your guide.

Very good experience with this tour. Edy was really easy to work with, and she had lots of information she was able to share with us without being completely overwhelming. She picked out the "highlights" of the Uffizi so we concentrated on the key pieces to see and not get bogged down in all the rest. There's so much there it was nice to have an expert help us get through in the time we had. For the Accademia she was very good about helping us navigate the incredible crush of people who were all lining up and giving us some more details about David we didn't know. We really enjoyed our walk with her (and pointing out the best gelato in the city). Definitely recommend this tour (and guide).

Wonderful tour- perfectly paced and interesting and informative historical and cultural perspectives shared. Our guide Camilla was outstanding.

Alisa saw our guide. She is a native of Florence and knows the city and its art thoroughly. We had a last minute change of plans and Alisa accommodated our change so we didn’t miss anything. Alisa guided us through the museums so we could see all the famous pieces without getting lost. She knows the history of the artists and works of art. This is the only way to see these museums.

Veramente un'ottima esperienza! Guida molto preparata e disponibile. Consigliato vivamente a chiunque voglia passare tre ore immerso in magnifiche opere d'arte.

Visitato gli Uffizi domenica 8 giugno. Elogiare gli Uffizi non è necessario, è un'esperienza unica in mezzo a tesori inestimabili. Il gruppo era di sole 9 persone, la guida, Elena, è arrivata con 20 minuti di anticipo. Abbiamo perso un pò di tempo per equipaggiarci con radio ma l'ingresso riservato è stato abbastanza veloce (controlli di sicurezza e dei biglietti, con una discreta folla). Elena si è dimostrata una persona attenta, gentile ed affabile, sempre sorridente e mai affrettata. Ha parlato per quasi tre ore inintterrottamente senza mai annoiarci, presentandoci le opere di maggiore valore del museo e facendocele apprezzare, raccontando anche aneddotti e vicissitudini delle stesse, e trasmettendo a tutto il gruppo l'amore e la passione per l'arte e per la città di Firenze che non ti aspetteresti da una guida di ripete le stesse cose tutti i giorni da diversi anni ormai. Ha risposto alle nostre domande da acculturati di livello "capre" con competenza e senza mai esitare, dimostrando una profonda preparazione. Visita consigliatissima, specialmente con Lei.

Con la guida Elena eravamo un gruppo di 13 persone. La visita è stata perfetta, esaustiva e dettagliata dove serviva esserlo. Con l'occasione abbiamo visto anche la mostra "Il Codice Leicester" di Da Vinci. Tre ore volate.

Visita molto bella! La guida era molto capace, organizzata e precisa. La visita comincia praticamente nel piazzale degli uffizi, alla biglietteria per il ritiro dei biglietti prenotati. Da lì si entra nel museo dalla porta per le visite guidate che non prevede fila all'ingresso (Eventuali file all'ingresso non sono dovute alla compagnia ma al museo, che vende a volte troppi biglietti.) La visita include le sale principali della collezione, e si sofferma su i quadri più importanti. La visita è organizzata in maniera cronologica così da dare una spiegazione dell'evoluzione sia storica che artistica (da Duccio da Buoninsegna fino al Caravaggio). La consiglio certamente, anche se in un periodo in cui il museo è meno affollato. Unica pecca, la permanenza nelle sale non è molto lunga (la visita è densa e copre molto bene le molte opere che ci sono agli uffizi) per cui non è adatta alle persone che vogliono mangiare i quadri per delle ore.
