Everything about the museum was amazing, I'm glad we did not skip it during our trip. The room of geographical maps was my favorite exhibit.

Extraordinary museum. It's not the first time we've been there, and we'll be going again.

The splendidly designed rooms were a feast for the eyes and are absolutely worth seeing! Our booking with fast track entry also worked perfectly! Thumbs up!

Quick entry to the Medici Chapel, just present the ticket and go through a quick security check and you're inside. The chapel itself was wonderful, really stunned by the interior. The location also offers more information and views.

Wonderful place to visit, everything perfect. The imposing structure is perfect deserves to be visited. Everything perfect except for the final part where, following a very trivial question, we asked if we could leave our bags in the closet there so that we could also visit the basilica of San Lorenzo, placed in the most polite manner possible, we received a rather testy and sour response from two employees at the desk. I understand that working with the public tires one out, but as a result of that very scurvy response, instead of seeking a solution, we preferred not to visit the basilica again but to look for something else to do.
Medici Chapels
Step back in time to 16th and 17th-century Florence with skip-the-line access to the Medici Chapels. This extension of the 15th-century church was built to honor the Medici family and the Dukes of Tuscany. Discover the crypt where several dukes and their wives are buried.
Visit Cappella dei Principi (Chapel of the Princes), known for its octagonal floor plan and a stunning cupola designed by Buontalenti. Don't miss the New Sacristy, which houses the tombs of Lorenzo and Giuliano de' Medici. Check out the sculptures of Day, Night, Dawn, and Dusk, adorning the Medici tombs as well as the walls of Michelangelo's secret room, which are covered by charcoal drawings attributed to Buonarroti.
Palazzo Vecchio
A visit to Palazzo Vecchio is a journey through three eras of history: Roman, Medieval, and Renaissance. Built in 1299 on the ruins of the Uberti Ghibelline towers, this palace has been Florence’s emblem of civil power for centuries. The Medici family called it their home for over 100 years.
Inside, explore Roman-inspired courtyards, admire intricate paintings, and marvel at sculptures of Florence’s great rulers and heroes. Wander through the stunning Hall of the Five Hundred, explore Francesco I de' Medici’s study, and admire frescoes, paintings, and sculptures by Renaissance masters like David Michelangelo, The Battle of Anghiari by Leonard Da Vinci, and Judith by Donatello.
