Description
With more than 2,200 works on display, visiting the Uffizi Gallery can be an overwhelming experience. We’ll make it easy for you with timed entry tickets, flexible small group and an expert guide so that you can really get the most out of your visit.
Francesca, one of our local guides, says, ‘You’ll gain a deeper understanding of the collection and how relates to the Medici family as well as to Renaissance Italy and the wider world.’
Your guide will focus on the museum’s masterpieces, including works by Leonardo da Vinci, Giotto, Raphael, Michelangelo, Caravaggio, Botticelli and Titian. Francesca says, ‘Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus is believed by many experts to have been inspired by the legend of the Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love, rather than Venus, the Roman goddess of love.’

No show tour guide
We were a group of 5. Showed up 15 minutes before our start time as instructed. No one from the tour company showed up. I started sending messages 5 minutes after the official start time. Received a response 10 minutes later with a refund. Tour was cancelled. Little good the refund does since we could not get any other tours into Uffizi. We booked this tour more than a month ago. Not very professional, they should have offered us a tour for later in the day.

Guided tour of the Uffizi in Florence
We booked the visit a few hours before the time we wanted to go. We easily found the organizers very kind to welcome you with bottles of water. Our guide, Mrs. James. Cosetta Boni, was enchanting in telling us not only the artistic details of the paintings we saw, but also anecdotes and curiosities about the life of the artists and also about the Uffizi Palace itself. Very good and professional, we recommend it to those who want to spend two hours immersed in the wonderful artistic atmosphere of the museum.

Just the Best in 2 hours
WOW! There is so much to see that it's overwhelming. Can't imagine doing this without a guide.
We started early and was able to see the highlights of the gallery together with our guide's personal insight.
The small group together with audio headsets worked out really well.

Thanks for the full refund Tripadvisor!

Dear Bev H,
Thank you for your comment, unfortunately we tried to contact you multiple times before the tour and also on the day of the activity but you never picked up your phone. We also sent a message through Tripadvisor, please check your email to find it. We were willing to explain that the venue was open for free in the day of your booking so unfortunately no tour was able to take place, and we were processing a full refund for it. I understand you thank Tripadvisor for the full-refund, but it was actually authorized and process by us, as of course you were 100% entitled to it!
Kindest regards,
Mark and the whole Faberest Team
