Outstanding and personalized.

Eric_D, Oct 2023

We loved this tour. There were only eight of us. Angelo provided the context that heightened the Ufuzzi experience. Highly recommended unless you're an art historian. Then it was just my wife and I with Angelo to go see David. A very personal and highly rewarding experience.

You should do this tour!

Julie_J, Mar 2023

We had an amazing trip to the Uffizi and Galleria delle l’accademia. Our tour guide Leonardo was so personable, and brought the history of the art to life with his stories. We were on awe of the museums, and I can the tour kept us from being overwhelmed. Grazie mille, Leonardo!

Architect & Mom loved this tour!

Maura_J, Oct 2022

Riccardo was very knowledgeable, generous and entertaining on this extended tour of two museums with a walk through the city. We had a great time and learned a lot! I was concerned that 3.5 hours might be too long, but the time flew by. Thank you!!

Ricardo had superior knowledge, was well organized and made the tour amazing! This was our third time to the Ufitzi and I learned more on this tour than the past combined. It is all about your tour guide and he is a treasure!

Amazing!

Riccardo was amazing! He is so knowledgeable about the art and the city. He guided us to the most important pieces of art and shared the history and related stories that made it come to life!

Awe Inspiring Experience

Tony_S, Jul 2022

Marzia was a fabulous guide on our tour of the Uffizi and Academia. We learned a great deal about the art as well as the history of Florence and Italy. We really enjoyed our tour.

Perfect way to hit the highlights!

Morgan_D, Jul 2022

Our Uffizi and Accademia Museums tour with Alessandra (if I remember her name correctly) was fantastic. She was extremely knowledgeable being a professor at a local university with a PhD. Looking back, I can't imagine trying to navigate all of the amazing artwork in the two galleries without her expertise. We would have missed out on so much!

Cannot get in touch with the company in case of travel cancellations

Alexandra_M, Jul 2022

Our flight was canceled twice and we could not make it for our tour. I tried multiple times to get in touch with Viator to let them know we wanted to cancel or reschedule. They never picked up the phone line and did not answer any of my emails. They charged me for the tour.

Dear, this feedback is posted under the our company page (we're the tour operator that is organizing the tour) but it's describing your experience with Viator. It is posted on the wrong page. Regards,

Florence small group tour

Penny_R, Jun 2022

Excellent guide, excellent tour. We highly recommend it. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly.

Great tour

Thomas_W, Jun 2022

Our guide was great. She was very knowledgeable about the history of the art we saw. I find seeing these artifacts with a knowledgeable guide so much more worthwhile.

Incredible info and great tour!

AnnGrace_M, Apr 2022

Our guide Caterina was super knowledgable (I think she has a Phd in Art History?) I learned so much, and having an expert guide through these two museums was invaluable.

Florence

Anton_C, Jun 2021

Leonardo was an excellent guide! His knowledge of history of art and his command of English were remarkable

Shortened but excellent tour

Lucretia_A, Nov 2019

During the week that we visited Florence the Accademia was free to the public but closed to tour guides. As a result, our combined Uffizi and Accademia Walking Tour had to be limited to the Uffizi. Fortunately our tour guide did such an excellent job that our disappointment was minimal. His history training was apparent as he responded early on to a question from a member of our group and seeing our response, he decided to orient the tour accordingly. The examples he showed us in numerous paintings and the historical connections clearly demonstrated for us the transitions from medieval to Renaissance art. His explanations of the original building added to our enjoyment. All in all, it was a wonderful morning.

Dear customer, Thank you so much for your feedback! We are really glad to hear that you appreciated and enjoyed our tour and we hope to see you again in Florence. Have a great day! Keys of Italy team

Excellent tour -- just the right amount of people in the group, length of time of tour and information provided!

Heather_D, Oct 2019

Our small group tour of the Uffizi and Accademia was exactly what we had hoped for. Our tour guide, Francesca, was friendly, efficient and knowledgeable about Florence, the two museums we visited and the art we viewed there. We had 9 people in our group which helped to move through the very crowded museums. Having skip the line access was absolutely essential to avoid a very long wait in the lines that formed outside the museums. It was also very helpful to have earphones to hear our tour guide so that while she was telling us about a particular painting, we could walk around the room and look at other pieces of art but still hear what she had to say. It was also crucial to have a well informed guide who could point out the most prominent pieces at the museum as there is a lot to see. Francesca also provided us with the history and other information about Florence as we walked between the museums. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you are lucky and get Francesca as your tour guide!
