We were a group of 3 family members on a quick trip to Florence. The tour leaders were very nice and helpful.We visited on a Wednesday in September and thought the city was very crowded, however we were informed that it was a "slow time" for visiting Florence. We couldn't imagine what a "busy season" would be.. We found the guides easy to find at the statue of Leonardo at the Uffizi. We arrived 30 minutes early and they were already there holding a sign with our names on it. Our group had about 14 people. We were able to "skip the line" but still had to wait a little bit to go through security screenings. We were given a headset to hear our guide. Guide was very informative. After our Uffizi tour, we were given 45 minutes to make our way to the Accademia. We were told it was a 10 minute walk, however because of crowds it took at least 20 minutes. Do not expect to get lunch or shop in between. The statue of David was very impressive, it was on our bucket list. Again, the museum was extremely crowded, but the "skip the line" is the only way to go. Well worth it. I highly recommend this tour.
We managed to find our meeting point. Fortunately, the tour guide, Ingrid, was experienced and knowledgeable with handling of the tour. Being late for second tour Ingrid had a scout looking for us and hooked us up with her. All in all it worked out because of her. Thank you, Ingrid!
This trip did not turn out as it was originally sold. Instead of two visits over a 3 hours period, this was 2 hours in the uffuzi one hour break then a second visit to the Accademia. The morning guide was very good, but even with the headphones, a bit difficult to understand completely, but she was obviously very knowledgeable. In the afternoon the guide was absorbed in his subject or michaelangelo’s David but went into far too much detail about lots of concepts around it - losing a lot of the group. One issue that was a problem was our 16 yo son and issues with him being admitted. I didn’t have his passport and wasn’t asked to bring it, so no ID for him, meaning in the uffuzi they refused to admits him as a junior. The tour company quickly paid for him as an adult but it was a bit embarrassing for him.
