What To Expect

Your small-group tour of Florence’s iconic Uffizi Gallery begins at a time that works best for you—choose from multiple convenient start times (and language options), and even upgrade to explore with only a private guide for company. You’ll meet at the ticket office just a block from the museum.

As one of Florence’s most-visited landmarks, the Uffizi Gallery regularly sells out—but this seamless tour offers skip-the-line tickets to help you guarantee your admission and bypass the long waits.

Once inside, follow your guide past the crowds and straight to the museum’s highlights, including priceless masterpieces by Botticelli, Da Vinci, and Raphael. As you go, your guide will share stories behind the artworks that you wouldn’t encounter independently. You’ll also discover lesser-known hidden gems in the museum’s galleries.

At the end of your tour, your guide will depart and you can choose to extend the experience and continue exploring independently.

Great tour
C_P, Apr 2024
Bruce definitely added to our awe and appreciation for all the treasures that we viewed. Truly greatest tour we have had. And it wasn’t our first tour at the Uffizi Gallery.
Terrible
Suzanne_S, Apr 2024
Nothing Total disorganization and it was raining and could not find the meeting point in the rain and the guide was not pleasant kept telling us that he could only programmed to tell us what Viator had told him to say and he wreaked of cigarettes and his teeth were brown from smoke and his nails where dirty. A bad experience all in all Will not be using you again
Most knowledgeable guide!
Brooke_A, Apr 2024
Our guide was the most knowledgeable person on art that I have ever met. She was fantastic and we learned so much about the pieces we saw. Really enjoyed this tour. If you want to know about the paintings and not just look, this is for you!
We were very lucky to be...

We were very lucky to be part of a very small group (4) Claudia our guide was s o knowledgeable, no way we would have enjoyed it as much without her input x
A must do tour
Michelle_G, Apr 2024
This tour was the best thing we have done so far on our travels. Our guide Francesco was so knowledgeable and you could tell has a real passion for art history. I highly recommend this to anyone who is looking to visit Florence.
Crowded

Uffizi in a morning
Brady_K, Apr 2024
Our guide did a great job, her knowledge was a great addition to all of the beautiful artwork. She kept us on point with hitting all of the highlights throughout the museum.
Entertaining and knowledgeable guide
Alicia_T, Apr 2024
Excellent knowledgeable guide. He provided both a historic perspective and placed each psinting snd sculpture within its art history perdpective. He was also very humorous and personable. His English was excellent.
Beautiful! Choose Uffizi over Accademia.
Hillary_D, Apr 2024
Beautiful! Our guide, Vittoria, was incredibly knowledgeable and taught us so much about the art we saw, as well as the history of the Uffizi itself. We learned so much in such a short amount of time, and were able to enjoy the museum and the rooftop view on our own after.
Just what we wanted
janis_b, Apr 2024
Fabulous informative tour. It was very crowded and our guide managed to move us easily through the crowd.
Great experience!
Michle_P, Apr 2024
We really liked our tour guide. A wealth of knowledge and very good personality for kids. We truly enjoyed the experience.
Great
Chris_D, Apr 2024
He was fine ... showed us the best of the best pieces of art. David statue is pretty amazing to see in person.
Amazing Tour of Works by Leonardo, Botticelli, Michelangelo, etc. – – Breathtaking Uffizi Galleries
Elizabeth_H, Apr 2024
Excellent experience. This was a true small group tour – – just our family and another family. Tickets had been purchased in advance for us, so we entered the galleries quickly and had plenty of time to spend in front of each work of art that our guide chose to highlight. Once we were finished, we were able to stay in the galleries as long as we pleased. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. She gave us ample background information on numerous works in the galleries, as well as ample information on the Medici family and the Renaissance in Florence. We strongly recommend this tour.
Booked last minute. Worked out great
Shaun_C, Apr 2024
Loved the Uffizi. Tour guide was very informative. Check in process was easy. My family and I booked at last minute and we were be happy.
Awesome tour of Uffizi!
Derek_H, Apr 2024
Claudia was an excellent tour guide for the Uffizi Gallery. She was very knowledgeable and helpful. Her super power was providing context and insight in describing the Italian master works of art. She was helpful in prioritizing what to see as the museum is so large and it would be easy to get overwhelmed. Highly recommend this tour!
Informative and wonderful
Irina_M, Apr 2024
Ghergana was Very knowledgeable and friendly guide, amazing experience overall- thank you. Uffizi gallery is a must see in Florence.
Sports center version of the Uffizi was perfect!
Caren_M, Apr 2024
We were in Florence for just a short time and wanted to see the “high lights” of the museum. Our guide was perfect! From skipping the long ( no really - huge line!) to walking quickly through the Roman statues- our guide brought us to the most important works of art. I was the “ah ha” moment when my teen and husband were able to recognize the differences in the paintings and what it meant about society and the progression of the renaissance and why Florence in particular was so important. Well worth the time and the financial investment.
Spectacular Uffizi Tour
Mehmood_N, Apr 2024
Our guide Isabella was terrific - very knowledgeable and pleasant. We saw the most renowned paintings in the gallery with our guide, then were free to wander on our own. It would be overwhelming to do it on our own the first time - being on a small guided tour was perfect and well worth the extra money.
Worth doing
Anthony_M, Apr 2024
Very pleasant and knowledgeable guide. Very interesting gallery well worth the visit. Why do you insist that I write more? I’ve written as much as I want to.
Boring
Alison_R, Apr 2024
We did not enjoy this tour. The guide was quite dull and not engaging. We left early. He did not bring the art to life. It felt like a boring lecture.
