Fast entrance? Yes. Clear audio guide? Yes. Incredible history? Absolutely. Palazzo Vecchio is a masterpiece, and this ticket option is simply the most efficient way to see it without getting bogged down in tourist traffic.
Easy. Uncomplicated. Get your ticket outside through Viator and they take you inside. You need WiFi and phone for audio guide. I'm glad I took earphones with, otherwise you have to listen on your phone. Walk through palace at your own pace.
Trip Advisor person was great once we found her. Walked us right in!
Basically, you are paying for someone to buy your ticket. If you arrive early, at 9 AM you can buy your own ticket and go inside without crowds and no need to pay the additional fee for having someone buying it for you. The girl was late, it was at 9:10 and she got there around 9:20 (I actually went inside to ask for information and saw her in line getting the tickets) once she gave us the tickets, she asked us to download an audio guide and took us inside to go upstairs. What she failed to tell us was that the first 12 minutes of the audio guide were for the downstairs area, so it took a while to figured that out, and once upstairs, you had to finish the tour to go back downstairs. Also, the audio guide was not in order with the tour, the order of the rooms inside were not aligned with the audio. Overall messy and unorganized. Buy your tickets directly with the venue and use their own audio guide.
Please note that tickets for Palazzo Vecchio are often sold out in advance, especially during peak periods. If you do not book ahead, there is no guarantee that tickets will be available on the day of your visit, even if you arrive early. Our service includes securing your reservation in advance and providing assistance with ticket collection and access. We are sorry if the audio guide experience did not meet your expectations, and we appreciate your comments as they help us improve our service. Kind regards, EU Travel Group
The host was helpful in providing the ticket and access to the visiting app, which was useful for navigating the palace. Unfortunately, there was an event taking place in the Salone dei Cinquecento, so this room could not be visited. In addition, the suggested route in the app could not be fully followed, and some rooms had to be skipped. Overall, access was smooth, but the visit itself was somewhat limited due to these restrictions.
Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to hear that our host was helpful and that access to the palace was smooth. We regret that some areas were temporarily unavailable due to a special event at the venue. Such restrictions are determined by the attraction and are unfortunately beyond our control. We appreciate your understanding and hope you still enjoyed your visit.
The Palazzo Vecchio is quite amazing with a fascinating history as both a municipal structure and as a residence. Some of the rooms are stunning, with very intricate and detailed ceilings.
The audio app was disjointed and difficult to follow. The guide ushered us through the back entrance which was easy.
Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to hear that the hosted entry through the dedicated entrance was smooth and easy. We also appreciate your comments regarding the audio guide app and will share them with our technical team to improve the experience for future guests.
Not great. Guide was late. Had to call them twice. Was about to buy normal Entry tickets before found her outside.
Our guide was present at the meeting point and the service was provided as booked. We understand there may have been some difficulty locating the guide at first, however the clients were successfully assisted before purchasing other tickets.
Easy entrance. A rainy Sunday so really no long line but Viator rep was there. These museums require you have data on your phones to download the audio guide. That’s the only downside but we navigates just fine without the guide. There was free WiFi inside.
The audio was very poor. The Pallazzo was beautiful
Thank you for your feedback. We understand that audio guides may not match everyone’s personal interest in history or storytelling style. However, we are glad to hear you found Palazzo beautiful and hope you still enjoyed the visit overall.
