Private tour of the Uffizi

Two hours at the Uffizi with a guide working only for your group, with the entry ticket and radios included in the price. The reason to choose it is the pace: you decide where to stop and for how long, and you can ask questions whenever you want.

Private Uffizi Tour

The experience

The tour lasts 2 hours and the guide is just for you: the listing promises an itinerary adapted to your interests and pace, with Botticelli, the Birth of Venus and Primavera, and then Michelangelo, Leonardo, Raphael and Caravaggio. The meeting point is at Via dei Castellani 14. Included in the price are the guide, radios with headsets and the Uffizi entry ticket worth €29. It starts from $196 (GetYourGuide, October 2026), with free cancellation up to 24 hours before.

The official Uffizi ticket is named and costs €25 if you buy it on the day, €29 if you buy it in advance; they sell it on tickets.uffizi.it, at the call centre and at the ticket office under the loggia of Piazzale degli Uffizi. The €29 included in the listing therefore corresponds to the official price of the ticket bought in advance; the rest pays for the private guide and the radios. For groups of 11 or more the museum adds a surcharge of €70: this is a group rule, check it with the operator if you are many.

Before paying, you need first name, last name and date of birth of all participants, and on arrival everyone must show a valid ID; for children the listing asks for a passport or ID card, and also accepts a copy. The listing says the tour is not suitable for people with reduced mobility. Hotel transfer, food, drinks and tips are excluded.

Marco was a magnificent guide. The museum is huge, and his choice of works and spaces to explore was perfect. He also let us talk about the works that had struck us. An excellent tour [...]: it’s a privilege to have someone so dedicated just to you.

I really liked our guide, excellent and very good with children. The 2-hour tour is enough and leaves time to enjoy the museum without getting too tired.

Victoria is a splendid guide from South Tyrol for the Uffizi Gallery. She knew endless details about the development of art and had a story for every painting. [...] For the children she had prepared a lovely treasure hunt among the paintings.

Tips before booking

  • Have first name, last name and date of birth of everyone ready before booking: without them, the purchase cannot be completed.
  • Bring an ID for every person, including children: the listing also accepts a copy.
  • If the group includes EU minors or young people aged 18 to 25, ask the operator how they calculate the ticket: at the museum minors enter free and EU young people pay €2.
  • Tell the guide at the start what interests you most: the private tour is designed to adapt.
  • No flash or tripod: the listing reminds you, and the museum also bans selfie sticks.
