What your day looks like
The Uffizi Gallery is home to the world’s most outstanding collection of Renaissance art, displayed in the magnificent surroundings of a 16th-century palace. Everyone who comes to Florence wants to spend a few hours appreciating the museum’s masterpieces, and with good reason. But with over 1.5 million visitors passing through its doors each year, the long entrance lines can be intimidating, to say the least. Join Through Eternity’s special Uffizi Gallery small group tour to skip the lines and get straight to the masterpieces, admiring the works by powerhouses of the art world like Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael, Michelangelo, and countless others. With the expert company of one of Through Eternity’s art-historian guides, you’ll get the full story behind the paintings, gaining a vivid insight into the compelling Renaissance world that brought them to life – a rich tapestry of war and political intrigue, of scientific discovery and religious fanaticism captured for eternity in the brushstrokes of some of the greatest artists to have ever lived. The guided portion of our Uffizi tour will conclude at the Museum's cafe, where you'll have the chance to take a breather and reflect on the wonderful array of masterpieces you've just seen. From here, you have a choice. Take advantage of the fast-track exit to get back onto the streets of Florence in double-quick time; or, if you just can’t get enough great art, continue your exploration of the gallery on your own. Our expert guide will happily point you in the direction of the gallery's hidden treasures waiting to be discovered. The choice is yours!
