Visit to 'La accademia'

Seeing Michelangelo's masterpiece in person has been a dream since I was a teenager so I have been waiting for this time a long way. My family and I had the privilege of making this dream come true from the hand of Manuela, our guide in this visit. She was so passionate about the David and Michelangelo's work in general that now I couldn't imagine having that experience in a different way. Her knowledge of this genius work is massive and she answered every question we did. We will never forget this experiences thanks, in part, to her. Thank you so much!

Uffizi Fast Track Acess = Time Saver and convenience

I’ve been to Florence many times and have always been hesitant to purchase fast track tickets. This time I booked them and it was the smoothest, least annoying experience I’ve had...EVER!! I highly recommend it!

Ufizzu fast track access

The email told me to go to via della condotta 12 to get my ticket. When I got there, I was told to go straight to the ufizzi gallery to meet someone for my ticket. It was confusing.
