Renaissance Treasures of the Uffizi Gallery Exclusive Tour
What your day looks like
Your vacation time is priceless. So are these masterpieces. And we know you want to get the most out of your trip to Italy as possible. That’s why we’ve tailored this amazing 1.5-hour tour of the Best of Uffizi to the most famous pieces admired by all. One of the oldest and most renowned art museums in the world, situated in the historic center of Florence, the Uffizi Gallery offers endless corridors of paintings and sculptures. It could take an avid art aficionado hours, if not days, to see it all. Let us guide you through the museum to enjoy the most fascinating works of Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, and hand-selected others, with plenty of time to explore on your own (for those who cannot get enough). Our Semi-Private tour travels in groups of 15 people or fewer, so your guide is easy to hear and interact with. They’ll also have more flexibility to tailor the tour to your group’s needs and interests.

What travelers are saying
This was an excellent curated tour.
My clients loved the tour.
We thoroughly enjoyed this tour. The contents of the Gallery was beautiful and the way it was presented allowed us to enjoy the various pieces and time periods involved. This guide did a very nice job explaining the significance of the pieces in the areas she focused us on. That was extremely helpful.
Our tour of the Uffizi was wonderful! Marcello, our tour guide, was knowledgeable about the museum, its history, the works of art in the museum as well as the historical context of the power struggles in Florence at the time. Our tour started on-time and actually went for nearly 2 hours. We had individual headsets and ear buds so that we could hear him easily. Marcello narrated the entire time and answered questions about the works of art as they came up. It was a wonderful tour and I would recommend it to others who would like more information about what they were seeing. Grazie, Marcello!
I give high praise for our tour guide who was enthusiastic, friendly and upbeat during what was a very crowded tour in the Uffizi Gallery. It was also dripping rain and we had to stand outside in line for a very long time, but our guide kept up a lively conversation and really talked to us personally. She was interested in us as people and knew so much. Thanks for a great tour!
Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and able to convey that to us during our visit. We highly recommend this experience.
This museum is beautiful! Our family of 5 (15, 14, 12 yr olds) enjoyed all there was to see. Our guide did a great job giving an overview. I always find these type of guide tours to be so much more beneficial than just roaming around reading descriptions by paintings.
We were so lucky! It was just the two of us. Our guide Claudia was excellent.
