What to expect
You'll arrive at the Uffizi and proceed straight through security with your guide. Expect to stand and walk continuously through high-ceilinged galleries; the museum has no lifts and involves several flights of stairs. Your guide will lead you through key collections, stopping to discuss individual pieces in depth. Some rooms enforce silence—your guide will brief you beforehand. The gallery can be busy even with skip-the-line access, and certain sections may be roped off. Plan for moderate physical exertion and bring comfortable shoes.
Good to know
Only small bags and handbags pass security; leave large luggage elsewhere. Dress respectfully. The museum occasionally closes without warning; if delayed over an hour, we'll offer an alternative with no refund. Mobile number required at booking.
