There is so much to see and to do it without a guided tour for the average person is overwhelming. Pam was a wonderful guide with so much knowledge. She explained in great detail what we were looking at. We had a personal tour and it was worth every penny!

Amazing and loved Marco! He told wonderful stories about the history of the Pitti Palace, the Medici Family and all the wonderful paintings.
This is a late review, but want to give our wonderful tour guide, Leticia, her due. My daughters and I took this private tour mid-July 2024 on our last morning in Florence and it was worth every penny. Leticia was impressive with her vast knowledge of all the paintings, frescos and history at Pitti Palace. She was also very pleasant and friendly to talk to. It was sad to leave the beautiful city of Florence and this tour stood out on our two-week trip to Italy and Switzerland. We were asked if they could use some of our pics for the travel website and we obliged. Don’t hesitate to book the tour!
Private tour of Pitti Palace. Guide was very knowledgeable and connected the dotes between other Medici palaces. Focused on progression of art.
Great tour of Pitti Palace. Our tour guide, Ilaria, was fantastic! She was very knowledge and engaging, as well as friendly and professional. She shares a lot of fun tidbits about Florence that we had not heard yet on other tours and we really enjoyed the seeing the architecture and furniture in the palace along with more artwork. And getting entrance into the Boboli Gardens at the end of our tour to spend as much time at our leisure was a great plus. We definitely enjoyed walking around the gardens.
Cristano was an excellent guide who gave us lots of details about Pitti palace, the art on display and history of the building. Super time!
Less common of tours and can be done without help but despite this we all found it quite nice. Great guide.
The tour guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant. Very informative. i would definitely recommend this tour.
Our family had a private tour with Sylvie to see the Pitti Palace and Boboli Gardens. Unfortunately it started pouring with rain so we missed the gardens but really enjoyed the palace. Sylvia was interesting and knowledgeable and not just reading a script. Would thoroughly recommend going here and having Sylvie as your guide.
This was a nice tour, however it doesn't give you access to the bedroom and living areas. A lot of art details and kept talking about the Medici family, but didn't see much of the Medici in paintings. The palace and gardens were beautiful, but it was a self tour as the guide doesn't continue into the games. She pointed out some interesting details we would've missed.
Tour guide was very knowledgeable and passionate regarding the artwork. It was wonderful hearing the stories behind the paintings 😊
The Pitti palace is beautiful but can be overwhelming. Our guide did a wonderful job of distilling the tour into a wonderful and digestible experience. We really appreciated her showing us the corridor the Medici built and the history of the ponte vecchio. A must do in Florence!
Marta was a wonderful guide through the Pitti Palace. She was very knowledgeable and gave us insights to several other places to visit while in Florence. Well worth going.
Our guide was very knowledgeable and spoke English very well. A very nice young man. Our tour was an hour and a half long. Very enjoyable tour.
Our tour guide Cristiano was very informative and we loved our tour!! Also loved we had time on our own to explore the beautiful Boboli Gardens.
Amazing tour guide who spent over two and a half hours with us in the Pitti Palace. She was very knowledgeable and shared her appreciation of the most important works with us in a way that really helped us understand and appreciate the art too! Quite delighted with the tour and highly recommend the private/semi private tour.
Our guide Camila was fabulous and as a student of the arts pursuing her doctorate she was very knowledgeable and informative along with being enthusiastic and entertaining!! The palace was beautiful and the gardens were fabulous (even though we were to early for the wisteria blossoms) but nothing topped the fabulous views of Florence. Having a drink at the cafe overlooking the city was magical!
Martina was awesome - loved that she showed us the masterpieces of the Pitti Palace and was very knowledgeable about the artists. Great pacing for such a large place and it wasn’t overwhelming. Following the Vasari Corridor from their offices was pretty amazing!
Excellent tour. Great guide. Took extra time to answer questions about the art and also the Medici family history.
Very knowledgable guide, great stories about the museum and paintings. Not many people visit the museum and gardens so you can enjoy this experience at leisure.
Our guide, MariaChristina, was great. She had great knowledge of the history, art and culture but it was just right for first time visitors to Italy, not overwhelming. Amazing how much we covered in about 90 minutes and then we were free to explore Boboli and Bardini gardens on our own. Highly recommend.
My guide was on time and provided lots of details and history of the palace and its art, taking me room by room and educating me as to the significance of the rooms and the art within. He was polite, his English was excellent and he left me with a better appreciation of the Pitti Palace and its place in the history of Florence.
Book a guide for this event! Alessandra was fantastic. She made sure we saw the most important works in this beautiful palace - we would have missed so many on our own. If you are a little bored with art Galleries, this is the perfect tour. You can see all the great masters of Italy is the setting of where the Medici lived. The Gardens (more like a park) give you a nice outdoor activity as well. And stop at the charming cafe for that delicious Italian coffee. Perfect!!
Amazing tour! We absolutely loved it and the tour guide was very accommodating to our time restrictions. We were able to see the highlights and enjoy the beautiful gardens.
What a wonderful tour. Our guide, Leonardo was amazing. Unfortunately we were not able to go into the boboli gardens due to weather but tour company wasted no time in refunding that portion of the ticket. Highly recommend this tour.
La grandeur du palace avec une guide qui connaissait tous les recoins du palace et L’histoire de ce qui est l’on habité
We visited Palazzo Pitti on April 14th with a private tour. A very interesting and exciting experience thanks to the competence and availability of Cristiano, our guide. Certainly recommend it!
Great experience. It is essential to visit Palazzo Pitti with a guide: Martina was very good and super addictive!
