Uffizi & Accademia Highlights: Skip The Line Combo Guided Tour
Overview
Available languages
3 hours
Mobile ticket
Capture the essence of Florence's artistic heritage and explore the collections of two of the world's most famous galleries.
Elena, one of the expert local guides, says, ‘Taking in so much art in a single day can be draining. With a guide to provide insight and context you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the collections and their place in Renaissance Italy and the wider world.’
At the Uffizi Gallery, your guide will lead you to discover the unmissable masterpieces, including works by Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Michelangelo, Botticelli, Caravaggio, and Titian.
You’ll also enjoy a short break at the rooftop café.
Next, you'll head to the Accademia Gallery. There you'll explore the gallery's seven halls, marvel at paintings, frescoes, and altarpieces in the Hall of the Colossus. The highlight of the tour is the Tribune, where you'll find the Accademia's star statue, Michelangelo's David, created by the artist when he was just 26 years old from a solid piece of marble.

5.00Our guide Maria was absolutely lovely! She was very knowledgeable, passionate about not only the art, but Florence as a whole. She made our day. Learning about the history of Florence as we walked from museums was an unexpected, but welcome surprise. I wish we could have had Maria with us for our entire trip. 10/10 experience and would strongly recommend!

3.00We bought “Skip the line”tickets and stood in lines for over an hour. The tour guide kept apologizing for the chaos but it still wasn’t what we paid for.

1.00After booking this tour which will be normally 3 hours, not waiting on line (that’s the whole reason) and having a guide was a total disaster. Long waiting periods, running tour guide which was so tiring made this tour exhausting and not enjoyable at all, After 4 hours 17 people which got divided to two groups after Academia visit , we were group of 9 and we finished with 5 . Delays made people leave half way to the completion. We lost our dinner reservation. We were extremely disappointed, because of the delays the guide was speeding and skipping some parts. After paying $300+(party of 3) such a shame that we were extremely dissatisfied. Bad reputation for Viator which we have more bookings with them next week making us consider different options. Partial credit will be only fair after the terrible experience.
