Note the meeting place for the tour. It is 15-20 min away from the museum. Very inconvenient and unnecessary to get there tickets. They charged 10x cost of tickets.

we loved seeing The David up close. The problem was the communication from the tour operator. We were already halfway to the Academia when they texted to come pick up tickets back by the Uffiz (10 minute walk in the other direction from where we were)i. It would have been helpful to get that info the day before so we would have planned better.

Skipping the line is a must for this experience if you like saving time. We enjoyed getting in easily and doing a quick self-guided tour. You can definitely spend a lot of time here if art is what you came for. Getting the tickets from the office was very simple too.

This group had the only available tickets - likely because the logistics are a bit challenging - but if you plan accordingly, it's definitely worth it. Staff was very helpful and provided great information. They even helped us secure a taxi as we had a group member with an injury that made walking difficult. I highly recommend this group, but be sure you build in time before entry to accommodate their ticket pickup process.

I would recommend going to see the statue. The complaint I have about this is the ease of getting tickets is not great. The pickup is in a location not near the venue and you can only go an hour before. I was already close by so tried to get them early and was told the guy hadn’t picked them up yet so I needed to come back. It was inconvenient for sure. Also upon arrival it was extremely unorganized basically chaos with the skip the line red point line very long and about an hour behind schedule. Once inside I would say it was worth it but definitely a headache getting to that point despite buying skip the line tickets.

It was crazy to have to walk blocks away to an impossible to find office in order to exchange the voucher for actual tickets. I do not believe that this was disclosed until after I booked the activity. I could not find the office. I called them and basically made the guy come outside to meet me where I was standing by the statues outside the Uffizi Gallery. This was very stressful.

There was a gigantic line that looked like it would take a week to get through! Fortunately, I had this pass and skip the line worked fabulously!

We bought these tickets last minute and they were incredibly easy to pick up and gain entry to see the statue of David.

The experience of the academia gallery was great. I made a mistake and didn’t get the meeting place right. They were so nice. They met us in front of the gallery with the tickets. It was much appreciated.
