I liked the fact that the meeting point was not directly at the Uffizi and was easy to find. Sibilla then started by telling us about the fascinating history of the surrounding buildings and the building itself. In the Uffizi, she made a selection of paintings, which she explained to us. And after the tour, we theoretically still had time to see the rest of the exhibition. But for me it was a complete experience and I left satisfied. I can highly recommend this tour and Sibilla, who gives the tour in English.

Our guide was amazing. I loved that she had a degree in art history. She did a great job of getting us into the museum through the crowds and making sure I got to see the things I most wanted to see. I would definitely book with head out Crown again. It was so easy to book and the email made it wonderfully easy to find the meetup location--no anxiety because a good description and map photo of the spots was provided. There were plenty of staff there to get everyone their stickers and direct us to our guide. Again, our guide was stupendous.

To start with the most important aspect of our experience was our guide. He was so very knowledgeable about the art tersely including techniques used, historical context, the artist themselves, the impact and influence their work had. In addition, he has a great sense of humor and good cheer. He navigated the most crowded areas smoithly both metaphorically and physically. I recommend the tour and our guide highly.

    It's so easy to see all the sights and to be able to hop off when you want to see more. We went up into a small village in the mountains had lunch and a wander round before getting the bus back to Florence it was magical the views were amazing!

    This tour was unfortunately very disappointing and not as advertised. Although Headout marketed as a combo, the experience was run by two completely different operators, which made it feel disjointed and inconsistent. The Uffizi portion was handled by Crown Tours. While the guide arrived 20 minutes late and spent too much time speaking about themselves rather than the artworks, they had good English and a solid level of knowledge. Crown Tours also came across as more professional, with clear WhatsApp communication and a representative at the meeting point. The Accademia portion, operated by Slow Tour Tuscany, was extremely poorly managed. I was sent incorrect meeting point details and only found the group thanks to the help of another company’s staff. When I finally located them, they were about to leave, and I nearly missed my entry. The guide’s English was not fluent, their vocabulary was limited, and the commentary added little to the visit — everything they said was already posted on the walls. Overall, the tour was frustrating and disappointing. In hindsight, it would have been far better to purchase tickets directly from the museums and use the official audio guide, which is often free. Buying tickets online is straightforward: arrive at your allocated time and line up for security as everyone else does. The advertised “skip the line” benefit proved useless, as we had to wait anyway due to the guide’s lateness.

    There are many areas for improvement.#Some seats had bad audio. There weren't so many people so I was able to change, but if it's full it's a big problem. #Waited over an hour at one stop because I was two seconds late for a bus and the driver wouldn't open the door for me, the next bus was "reserved" so they wouldn't let me on. #not all the staff was friendly. #the directions on the app are not accurate. Several times I ended up waiting at places that were not stops. #I tried to phone before the inconvenience for help and the phone number listed on the page does not work.
