On this private tour, guests will uncover stunning masterpieces from the Renaissance era at the Uffizi Gallery, one of the world’s most renowned art museums. Guided by an expert, this half-day exploration will begin with participants making their way to the meeting point in Florence’s historic center. Thanks to skip-the-line entrance tickets, guests will walk in right away and start their tour. Inside, they will be greeted by an impressive collection on display across two levels of the 16th-century building designed by Giorgio Vasari. The Uffizi’s vast collection includes priceless pieces such as Botticelli’s Primavera and The Birth of Venus, Michelangelo’s The Holy Family, and Leonardo da Vinci’s Adoration of the Magi. Guests will be regaled with fascinating details and stories about the pieces, such as the identity of the woman in the Birth of Venus, and how Michelangelo outsmarted a famous skinflint. At the end of the guided tour, guests can choose to explore the museum on their own before heading back to their hotel.
