Uffizi Gallery: Private Tour with Skip-the-Line Access

Overview

The Florence Uffizi Private Walking Tour offers a deep dive into the world's largest collection of Renaissance paintings, housed in a palace originally commissioned by the Medici family in 1560. On this tour, a local expert guide shares stories and secrets about the Medici family that are not in regular guidebooks.

Visitors can expect to see must-see masterpieces, including Botticelli’s 'The Birth of Venus,' Da Vinci’s 'Annunciation,' and the oldest paintings in the Uffizi in the Giotto room. With works by Michelangelo, Caravaggio, and Raphael also on display, the guide provides context, symbolism, and insights into each piece. The tour concludes at the Uffizi Gallery's terrace café, and the ticket remains valid until closing time, allowing visitors to further explore the collection at their leisure.

This 2.5-hour private tour includes skip-the-line access to the Uffizi Gallery and headsets for groups of more than five people. Gratuities and food and drinks are not included.
