Guidekin's take

Both big galleries in one guided outing: the Uffizi's Renaissance paintings first, then the Accademia for Michelangelo's David, with entrance tickets and booking fees for both included and radio headsets for larger groups.

Every traveller must show ID matching the booking name or risk being refused entry. Rated 4.68 by 475 travellers at €145 per person.

In our comparison: #5 of 7 in Uffizi Gallery Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
