It was suggested from a friend when visiting Florence. She said it was the easiest way to get all the tickets to the museum. She was correct! I used the app to verify my ticket at the Accademia and head out sent me a PDF which I showed at the Uffizi Galleria and both processes were smooth.

We were looking for a company we could trust to buy tickets from, and we chose Headout—we made the right choice. The process was very easy, and the ticket price was very competitive. It’s an easy-to-use app for those of us over 60. We’ll keep using it on future trips!

I am pleased. A manager escorted us for quick entry. Everything was clear and easy to understand. I recommend buying a combo ticket for the Uffizi and Pitti Palace (they are located very close to each other) and the Accademia.I recommend using the services of this site.Thank you.

Finally seeing Michelangelo's David was definitely the highlight of our trip to the Accademia. The other artwork and sculptures were also breathtaking. We will be coming back to Florence again and the Accademia will be the first on the list to visit!

It's too bad it wasn't possible to change the time—my wife wasn't feeling well. But on the other hand, we were able to get in much later than scheduled. The tour was really nice; too bad the audio guide wasn't the one provided by the site...

By showing the Headout app, we got into Academia super fast. However, we first had to leave our luggage at the nearby Buch Café at No. 51, since bags and backpacks were strictly prohibited inside. Maybe Headout could mention that—it would have been less stressful. But everything else was fine. Once inside, you’re given “real” tickets to proceed further.

Excellent! It was easy to find the coordinator, and entry was quick (2 minutes). The regular line took half an hour or more. The museum is fantastic—it’s small and easy to get around. The “David” is majestic. I recommend Headout for this activity.
