Stop At: Gallerie Degli Uffizi, Piazzale Degli Uffizi 6, 50122, Florence Italy
Your guide will meet you at the Piazza della Signoria, in front of the Uffizi Gallery, at either 10am or 2pm, and, with reserved tickets, you’ll avoid the lengthy queues which form outside the gallery in high season.
Built in 1560 by Giorgio Vasari, the Uffizi itself is an architectural gem, with its breathtaking ceilings, decadent architecture, and lavish corridors and galleries. As you wander amongst the collections, your guide will describe the life of an artist during the Renaissance, the politics and fashions that influenced the masterpieces you are about to see, and the patrons and benefactors behind these incredible works of art. Take in the classic works of Italy's spectacular Renaissance masters, from Leonardo da Vinci to Raphael, Titian, Giotto, and Caravaggio. Your expert guide will be on hand to answer any questions you may have during the tour.
You'll see world-renowned works including Botticelli's Birth of Venus and Leonardo's Annunciation, as well as sculptures and paintings that embody the power and strength of Renaissance Florence.
Your guide will say goodbye at 12:30pm or 4:30pm, depending on tour time, but you'll be free to continue exploring at your own pace until the museum closes at 6:50pm.
