Seeing all of this incredible art and the stories behind them was amazing. Both galleries were so wonderful to behold and not nearly enough time to see everything. Block out some time after the tour ends to stay and look closer at all of these works

Excellent and very complete tour. The walking around town tour and Accademia part with our guide Sarah was fantastic, she gave us great insights. The Uffizi Gallery with Stefano was great and he was very knowledgeable. We had enough time for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed our day.

This is a 2 part tour. Our tour guide for the Academia section was Stefeno. In addition to the museum he showed us several sights within the city center. He was very knowledgeable and had a lot of insight on the long history of Florence. The museum tour mainly revolved around the David. We had free time to explore the small museum afterwards. There is about a 1.5 hour break between tours. We had Maya as our guide for the Uffuzi. This section only lasted about 1 hr. Maya showed us several pieces painted by artists which everyone had heard of. She was informative on how the pieces related due to different artists teachers and students. We spent about another 2 hours in the Uffizi. It is a magnificent museum that I could have easily spent a whole day exploring. This is a good tour for some city history and to hit the highlights of both museums without spending much time.
