Skip the line: Uffizi and Accademia Small Group Walking Tour

Posted By : ROBYN_H
Very comprehensive tour of both galleries and skip the line worked brilliantly for both. Stefanie was a wonderful guide who shared her knowledge in an interesting and informative way making sure we covered the most important aspects of both sites

Our Tour guide Stephania was lovely - knowledgeable and entertaining, fully conversant with the art in the Museums - able to educate and inform us about the pieces we were viewing.

Her English was excellent, and we had no trouble understanding anything she said.
Her microphone and our earbud setup worked seamlessly throughout the tour, so we could hear her at all times.

Tour was at a good pace, and Stephania made sure to point out and discuss lots of things as we walked to and between museums.

The Tour definitely concentrated on the "highlights" and IMHO is perfect for folks visiting Florence a second time (as we were) or a first-timer who can't deal with hours and hours in a museum. Visiting Uffizi and Accademia can be overwhelming - like "drinking from a firehose", so concentrating on and spending time going in depth on key artworks is a good strategy.

Definitely would recommend, and can't compliment our guide Stephania enough.

My husband and I had a wonderful time on this tour. We got to see the highlights of both galleries and our tour guide provided history lessons as we went. If you want to see the highlights, this tour is for you. If you want to study the art then I would not recommend it.

The guide was an art historian who knew all kinds of information. Amanda gave the best tour I could have had

There were several outstanding pieces in the galleries from the masters, Davincci, Michaelangelo and others. Our guide had a passion for art and was able to explain with enthusiasm the stories in each painting. She was familiar with the artist, their history, their rivalries and even had a few corny jokes! It was a fun and informative tour. Highly recommend.

We had a great time. Our guide Rosa was amazing. She was extremely knowledgeable and kept the group engaged. She gave us lots of insight, history, and meaning of the art work. She is a tiny slightly older lady but she got us to the front of the exhibits and took pictures of all the couples without hesitation. She was awesome.

Chaira, our guide, was fabulous and funny! She paced the tour very well! I Learned so much about artistic styles and famous artists! In May, museum crowds starting to build up!

Easy to understand. Kept up with us as a group even in crowded museums. Very pleasant and friendly. Worth the money

Our guide, Silvia made the tour exceptional. She was very knowledgeable and helped us move smoothly through the museums. It was a busy day and she made every decision of where to stand to what exhibits to target. I leaned so much and loved everything! We did not waste any time in lines.

As much as I wanted to love this, our guide was just not good, and it saddens me to say this because I'm sure she's a lovely woman. But Rosa could not keep our attentions, despite how much she obviously loves the art, she was quite bossy and lacked the people skills to share her love of art and her knowledge, as other tour guides were able to do all over Italy for us.
