This was a bad expérience from the beginning. It was was cancelled with the opportunity to reschedule which I agreed to, but it actually wasn’t. Then less than 2 hours before the original time, it was apparently on again with no meeting point given. As a result, we never got the tickets. Do NOT use this service.

Itinerary
The Uffizi Palace was commissioned by Cosimo I de' Medici and designed by Vasari (16th Century). It has a unusual U shape, which is closed towards the Arno. The two wings of the palace are connected by a corridor with six big arched windows, facing the Arno and the inner courtyard. Nowadays the building hosts the Uffizi Gallery, one of the most visited museums in the world, collecting masterpieces from the 13th to the 18th Century. The very beginning of the Uffizi Gallery was the collection of Francesco I de' Medici; The collection became “public and inalienable good” thanks to Duchess Anna Maria Luisa de' Medici whose will it was that it would be open to the public forever. Today, the Uffizi Gallery is one of the most important museums in the world, with new acquisitions and gifts. Using the elevator at the entrance of the museum is reserved for people who have special needs – including temporary – and the maximum capacity is 6 persons at a time.

I booked 4 tickets for this visit. Tripadvisor and Viator confirmed my booking. Buried deep in a message forwarded through Tripadvisor, Viator canceled my booking. I only discovered this by reading in detail all the correspondence when refused entry at The Effizi. I did not receive and specific notification expressly notifying of Viator's decision to cancel my previously confirmed tickets. I was also informed in that buried notification that I would have to contact Viator and request a full refund for the trip they cancelled. How does that work? So unprofessional and worse still is that I only discovered this too late to source tickets from another provider. One very unhappy customer.
You would not believe how much art is in this place. Room after room of beautiful works by legendary masters, and you're surrounded by unbelievable views of the city.
Paid for skip the line tickets and there was no option to skip the line. We spoke to multiple different staff working the Uffizi and they all said the same thing. There were people in front and behind us in line who also had purchased a skip the line ticket and were unable to skip. Do not pay extra to skip because you will not be able to. Just pay for tickets to get in.
The price for the entrance was €29 on the receipt. Aviator charged €42 with no audio guide included, the only thing guaranteed was the time to enter the galleria. The Galleria was so overcrowded that made it a very unpleasant experience.
Took a while to get into building as skip the line timed tickets had a very long line of people waiting for entry. Very crowded and difficult to get close to more popular works of art. Difficult to locate certain pieces due to sheer size of gallery.
Our guide was very knowledgeable, professional and able to explain in such a way that we wanted even more information when the tour was over.
The line was huge and skipping definitely helped. It was a bit weird to get our tickets in advance but, they were ultimately emailed the day before. Though you have a slot for skipping the line, get there early as a 130 slot could end up getting you in closer to 2. However, it beats waiting for hours. The museum was great and the Birth of Venus was amazing.
Exceptional and dense visit. Must see in Florence . Very busy place I highly recommend skip the line tickets
Tickets worked great. No luck with company audio guide- wouldn’t buy that again. Couldn’t down load in reasonable period of time- museum version would lay 6 € so better.
