Visita guiada David & Accademia con entrada programada

I purchased a guided tour of the Accademia and under “What’s included”, it lists guaranteed skip-the-line access and entrance to the Uffizi. We received neither. I understand the tour company cannot control crowds, but it shouldn’t list guarantee to skip the line, if it’s not true. Also, we were unable to visit the Uffizi during our trip because we couldn’t secure last minute tickets when we found out we didn’t get access. It shouldn’t be listed as included if it’s not true. Lastly, the earpieces that the tour provides to listen to the tour guide are very old and don’t stay in small ears. I requested a refund and was denied without speaking to anyone.

The experience was awesome. Will recommend it to others.

The best tour we’ve taken, and we’ve taken many in our 3 1/2 weeks in Italy so far. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. The (original) David brought tears to my eyes. Spectacular.

The 1 hour tour was more like 2, although our guide was very knowledgeable at times it was drawn out a bit too much. A brief history would be great but more time to explore on our own would have been better

Very crowded. Guide we had could not be understood. Ear pieces were not good. Fit some people’s ear, others not so much. We left the tour after 10 minutes inside and did it on our own.

Good tour with a guide who was very knowledgeable. Did not feel rushed as guided tours sometimes can.

The tour guide for the Accademia had a lot of information but spent so much time on Michelangelo’s prisoner series that I had to miss a lot of the other parts of the gallery towards the end. I did not like having to rush from the Accademia to meet my next guide at the Uffizi gallery in 25 minutes when it takes 20 minutes to get there. I would recommend that you book the galleries on two separate days or with at least 2 to 3 hours apart. Sarah, the Uffizi gallery tour, was amazing and knowledgeable. She did a great job highlighting all of the important paintings. She also did really well with having to wait for half of our group to show because it was pouring rain and most of the group was late coming from the Accademia so far away. My last complaint would be that we had to wait for over an hour IN line when we had the Skip the Line passes. The guide explained that it was because it was raining, but that is not really a good excuse because an hour is not SKIPPING the line.

Great way to spend a few hours. Soak in the incredible views everywhere in this gorgeous city, listening to the history our guide Pauline told us, and finish up with a viewing of David in the Academia.

I am in Florence for just 1 day and my guided tours to the David and the Duomo were perfect. My guides were extremely knowledgeable, friendly and fun. Highly recommended both for the full experience.

Great tours with Stefano today for the Best of Florence Walking Tour with Michelangelo's David and Duomo with Stefano! Very informative and we enjoyed all the history and knowledge he shared with us. Highly recommended.
