Great
The most memorable part was the statue of David and seeing the beautiful art pieces at uffizi gallery.
Our tour guide Ismael did a great job with sharing the knowledge and thorough explanation of each historical piece.

This is a very interesting tour. Our guide, Ishmael, was very knowledgeable and an excellent guide. Definitely a tour to do in Florence. We learned a lot about art and sculpture

The tour was a great overview of Florence. Our guide has lived in Florence her whole life and is clearly proud of her city. This tour gets you to the main points of interest in the city and adds a lot of background that makes everything more enjoyable.

This was a very nice walk around the main part of Florence with and excellent tour of both the Ufuzzi and Academy (David) galleries. Our tour guide did an excellent job on an extremely crowded day in both galleries.

Everything worked out smoothly and I’m glad I went! Check in at San Marco plaza was easy and then we headed out. It was unexpected, but very helpful that everyone got a headphone to hear the tour guide clearly. It was much better than trying to hear her voice when many places were soooo busy!
Brenda was fantastic and made navigating the locations a breeze so I could just enjoy the experience. The group had ample time to see David and other highlights, and since you have a headset, you can roam a bit to look at other art (e.g., in Ufizzi).
As a few people mentioned in their reviews, you have about an hour for lunch. Avoid the tourist traps (all the outdoor seating restaurants right in the plaza) and try to find a sandwich shop in one of the smaller streets!

You must provide first and last name for every guests in your party at the time of booking. All guests must also bring ID on the day of their tour.
Is Florence In A Day tour suitable for people with mobility challenges?
We would like to inform that starting from December 2, 2024, the two elevators located in the east wing of the Uffizi, near the main staircase, will be unavailable to the public due to maintenance work.
The main staircase consists of 4 flights, totaling 126 steps.
Guests who are unable to climb the stairs and require the elevator to access the main floor of the Gallery should proceed to the hall in front of the main staircase once inside the museum. There, museum staff will assist them in reaching the elevators located in the west wing.
Can I use a wheelchair on this tour?
Yes, but we require advance notice in order to accommodate wheelchairs on this tour. After booking, please contact us so that we can organize a private tour for you. If we cannot find a guide to lead you that day we'll offer you the same tour on the next available date or give you credit for another tour anywhere else in the world.
What if the weather is bad (rain, snow, hail, etc.) on the day of my tour?
Our tours run rain or shine so please dress for the elements. We also ask you to please remember hats and sunscreen if you are taking this tour in the summer as it might be very hot.
Do I get to enter the Duomo on this tour?
The Florence in a Day tour does not enter the Duomo because this attraction does not offer skip-the-line tickets. If you are interested in visiting the Duomo, your guide will give you some tips on when to go in order to beat the lines.
