Florence: Early Morning Semi-private Uffizi Gallery Guided Experience

Francesca, our guide, is highly knowledgeable, friendly and thorough. She helped us navigate the crowded Uffizi easily, and made our tour a delight.

Great tour without going overboard in art history. Our guide was knowledgeable, well versed in art and history.

Elisabetta Carrano was so full of knowledge and detail. Definitely would recommend her. It made our visit extra special. Wish we had her for longer.

Veronica was an amazing guide! Super knowledgeable, friendly, and made the Uffizi feel way more approachable. She shared great stories behind the artworks and kept things interesting the whole time. Definitely made the experience more memorable—highly recommend touring with her!

Tour with Stephi was excellent . She is knowledgeable and made the experience apositive one. Well worth it

What an excellent morning and tour. It was just the two of us with the guide and we had an excellent experience. The best advice we would give is to book the first tour of the day, as the museum started to get very busy by late morning. After the guided tour was over, we went back through to spend more time at various masterpieces. In total we were here almost 4 hours.

I am so glad we went with this tour. The Uffizi is way too big to see everything alone and the context of what you're looking at matters. I would have had such a difficult time figuring out how to navigate most efficiently to see the highlights. Francesca did an excellent job really highlighting the most popular artworks in the gallery while also providing an informative and interesting overview of Florence. She was extremely patient and as a bonus, even was generous with taking so many photos of me and my mom. The Uffizi is such a wonderful museum and the experience felt even more special with her guidance.

OMG. Francesca was great! Took us through the crowd right to all the important pieces of art. She told detailed stories of every piece, as well as details of the Uffizi building as well. We would highly recommend this tour. The only confusion was the meet up area where we should have met in front of the Uffizi entrances and not around the corner where our Google map was taking us. We sent a message via the site and it was answered immediately. Well done.

Marina was an excellent guide. She shared her knowledge and expertise while continually ensuring we kept up and were enjoying the experience. In addition to viewing the several art periods represented in the Accademia Gallery, and the fabulous Michaelangelo sculptures, we had the added treat of visiting the musical instrument section. Thank you, Martina, for sharing with us, ensuring we had a wonderful morning visit!

Our tour guide, Victoria, was wonderful: very well informed, explained the art, history and architecture of the Uffizi clearly with many fascinating stories and facts, spoke English very well, and above all was a friendly and charming guide. Our group was restricted to my husband, myself and our daughter, which was the perfect size , allowing us to have an interactive tour with Victoria with lots of time for questions and answers. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would recommend it highly.

Giacomo was a terrific tour guide. His knowledge about art and history added life to each piece we looked at. He navigated the museum and the crowds so we go to see the key pieces to make most use of our 2 hours with him. He spoke excellent English and was able to answer all of our questions providing more in-depth background. I would highly recommend Giacomo for your Uffizi Tour!

Annette was an excellent guide- friendly, knowledgeable, perfect English, easy to understand. We learned so much and were able to see the biggest highlights of the Uffizi. Without her guidance we would not have realized what we were looking at! Highly recommend

There was so much to see but our guide was so very knowledgeable and took us to all the important art. She was a lovely person and made our Uffizi experience very special.

Our guide was accommodating, knowledgeable, and very nice. She was full of interesting information and the pace of the tour was perfect!

Our guide was very knowledgeable and was able to give background information about many of the works in the Uffizi Gallery. If you are someone who enjoys art history this is a good place to start!

Our guide Annette was wonderful and brought the gallery to life for us! We were lucky to have her to ourselves and she really made the details of the works and the history of them so easy to understand and enjoy. Would absolutely do another tour with Annette!

Annette was our personal guide to the Uffizi, and she was amazing. She knew her way around the museum and in the limited time that we had, she managed to show us a wonderful selection of items that met our interests. Her knowledge of the artworks and the relevant history added so much to our visit, and she included my 14 year old grandson seamlessly in all of her discussions. We learnt so much from our visit, and are very grateful for the opportunity to have had such a wonderful guide.

Perfect introduction to the Uffizi. Our tour guide Annette did a spectacular job bringing the museum to life. She brought to life an overwhelming art collection making it seem like we were living in the period of the artists. From the early alter paintings that had no depth to the outstanding Renaissance artists full of life, Annette guided us through every detail of their beauty every step of the way. We had a great museum visit thanks to Annette and the early entrance feature of this event.

We had a wonderful early morning private Gallery tour with Leonardo. He was so knowledgeable and passionate about the history and stories behind what we were seeing, and there's a LOT to see. By going early we avoided most of the crowds which was lovely. We learned so much more than we would have if we had just tried to go by ourselves. This tour and Leonardo were well worth the money! I highly recommend it!

Very professional guide showed us all the most important works of art without too much time wasting and we were able to move faster ar Kind the gallery after an early start at 8,30am.

Christian was a great guide and really brought the Renaissance pros to life with his knowledge and passion!

Excellent tour of the gallery. There is so much to see, if you only have a short time to visit, a tour will help highlight a few of the most memorable pieces.

We had a fantastic tour!! I have been before but Giacomo Piccardi ( our tour guide) was extremely knowledgable and included fascinating facts about the time, the art and contextualized what we were observing. Plus, my husband and i were the only ones on the tour! It was a highlight of our trip! Highly recommend!

I've visited Uffizi before and so glad I returned! Getting in early as possible was a huge benefit. Then Brian's knowledge, patience, passion for what he revealed to us was exhilarating! It is the greatest museum (gallery) in the world!

Beautiful city and very easy to visit, everything is very close. I recommend visiting the Uffizi Gallery, the Academy Gallery and the Medicci Palace. And if you have the opportunity, go up to the mountain where the bronze David is to see some very good views of the entire city. To sleep I recommend the Affitacamere Shaby old town hotel, very central and comfortable.

Giacomo was an excellent guide who made the tour entertaining like a fairy tale. He has a wide range of knowledge and is happy to answer intermediate questions. Giacomo is a truly sympathetic guide who is authentic due to his Florentine roots. Thanks Giacomo :)

A competent guide, he was able to involve and make the visit very interesting, promptly answering the questions that were asked. Recommended.
