Vittoria was a truly excellent guide during our visit to the Uffizi. With great expertise and efficiency, she led us through the museum, making the tour engaging and never boring. Her explanations were full of interesting details and fun facts that enriched the visit, allowing us to appreciate the artworks and their historical and artistic context even more. A very positive experience that I highly recommend.

A very knowledgeable and well-prepared guide. No lines at the entrance. The tour was the right length, with enough free time to explore the most interesting works on your own.

It was truly a wonderful experience, thanks in part to the focus our guide (Manuela Corsi) chose for the tour: the evolution of painting during the Renaissance. Her explanations were very accessible and covered both technical and emotional aspects, which really made the difference. We were a small group (9 people), and even though the museum was crowded, we had no trouble getting a close look at the works. She also extended the tour beyond the scheduled time, demonstrating her dedication and professionalism. Thank you, Manuela

PAM our guide was extremely detailed and knowledgeable about the history of the Uffizi Gallery and each of the paintings she throughly discussed. Her English was excellent and understandable. Didn't rush us through the whole tour. She knew where to position the group to best see each of the paintings despite the sizable crowds in each of the galleries. Her patience made this one of the BEST tours on our extensive trip through Italy.

Informative, entertaining, and fun. The guide at the Uffizi Museum was fantastic. It was a real treat to have Ana, who, in addition to being very friendly, attentive, and an art expert, is Italian and shared all sorts of interesting facts about art and life in Florence and Tuscany. I’ll wrap up by saying that we were very lucky to be just the two of us, so we got a super personalized tour. Choosing this guide was a great decision! Thank you very much!

It was my first time taking a guided tour. I really liked the audio guide they provided us with; it allowed us to clearly hear what our guide, Cosetta, was telling us during the tour, even with all the people crowding the museum—everything was very clear. Our guide, Cosetta, did a great job explaining the exhibits and interesting facts, and she was always willing to answer questions. I highly recommend it.

    It was a special experience with Ms. Vera Niemeyer because the art she told us about really came to life. Thank you very much for that.
