What to expect
Your guide meets you and handles all logistics—no fumbling with vouchers or security lines. You'll enter via a separate corridor with timed tickets already sorted, giving you breathing room in front of Botticelli, da Vinci, and Caravaggio. Depending on which option you book, you might walk through Florence's narrow streets to the Cathedral (the interior is free but busy during masses), then loop back through the Uffizi's permanent and temporary collections. Allow an extra hour if transfers are included; traffic and distance vary. Groups of five or more receive audio guides. Expect crowds, especially mid-morning, but your timed slot and private guide mean you're never waiting.
Good to know
Bring a valid passport or ID matching your booking name—entry is refused without it. Timed tickets cost €29 per person. Arrive 15 minutes early for collection. Cathedral entry (10:15–15:15) is restricted during services and can have hour-long queues. Transfers estimate one hour round-trip but vary with traffic.
