About three hours with an authorised guide: first the Uffizi with Botticelli and Leonardo, then the Accademia Gallery with Michelangelo's David. This is the formula for those who want both galleries in the same visit, with tickets already included in the price and a small group.
The meeting point is at Via dei Castellani 14. It starts at the Uffizi, with a timed entry and an authorised guide who recounts the Renaissance among Botticelli, Leonardo, Caravaggio, Giotto and Michelangelo. Then you walk to the Accademia Gallery: Michelangelo's David, the Hall of the Prisoners with the unfinished sculptures intended for Pope Julius II, the gold-ground paintings and the museum of musical instruments. Throughout the visit you have a radio with headsets.
The duration is about 3 hours for two galleries: the pace is tight and the guide cannot show you everything. The official ticket allows only one entry, so anyone who wants to return to the rooms after the tour cannot re-enter. Groups are up to 15 people. Before paying, you need the first name, last name and date of birth of each participant, and on arrival everyone shows a valid ID; the listing also accepts a copy.
The price starts from $162 per person (GetYourGuide, October 2026). It includes the guide, Accademia tickets, the timed Uffizi ticket (the listing indicates €29), radios and booking fees. The official Uffizi ticket costs €25 on the day and €29 in advance on tickets.uffizi.it: details are in the guide to Uffizi and Accademia on the same day. Hotel pickup, transfers, food and tips are not included.
At the time of purchase, the listing asks for the first name, last name and date of birth of all participants: the tickets are named.
The meeting point is a short walk from the Uffizi. Bring a passport or ID card, even for children.

★★★★★We did the Uffizi and Accademia tour and both our guides were very knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. Both places were incredible, especially seeing the David statue in person was exciting.
★★★★★Francesca was fantastic! The galleries were splendid and we really enjoyed listening to the history and many small curiosities that we would never have known otherwise.
★★★★★Anna was very knowledgeable and engaging. There was a lot of ground to cover and a lot of history to tell between the two galleries, but Anna kept a relaxed pace and provided targeted and concise information.
★★★★★The tour was very interesting and the guide was exceptional. One tip: wear comfortable sneakers, because the tour is long and a bit tiring.
