Wonderful tour! Best guide we've had in all of our tours, who was knowledgeable, but more importantly, passionate about his subject. The Vasari Corridor was fascinating. I'd recommend this tour with this company to anyone!
Mario, our guide, provided extensive background to assist in the viewing and enjoyment of the many masterpieces. The Uffizi was amazing but the Vasari corridor was excellent as well. He even provided a short lesson on art history using sculpture in the neighborhood on the way to the gallery. Outstanding tour from beginning to end. 5++ stars.
Aneka was a wonderful guide - very informative and had great personality - she really made history come alive. The only draw back was the fact that we had an afternoon tour, so the place was uncomfortably crowded and quite rushed - however when you are viewing pictures you grew up with in your history and art books, it is quite thrilling. The Vasari corridor was fantastic - more time to stand and stare - some wonderful unique views from the windows and a fantastic selection of self portraits made the time fly. Finishing in the Boboli gardens and with a drink on Piazzo Santo Spirito was a perfect end to a great tour.
A charming, informed guide who was able to guide us through a sea of visitors to the Uffizi before we had the Vasari Corridor all to ourselves.
Our guide was excellent. He really knows the background of the art we saw. The Vasari Corridor was very interesting. I recommend this tour.
I was very pleased with my recent tour of the Uffizi Gallery and Vasari Corridor. The guide was exceptionally well versed in art history and the history of the building. She was friendly, easy to understand, and just super.
Loved this tour and the Vasari Corridor is amazing. It's due to close soon so see it while you can.
The highlight of my holiday, the guide was very informative and coped well with crowds. If you are interest in art the Vasari gallery is a must.
Excellent tour of Uffizi and Vasari Corridor.
Guides knowledge excellent.
With so much to see trip could have been longer.
Went to your office the day before trip to ask for "free transport from hotel" which was mentioned on booking info- but told not possible. Our guide was very knowledgeable but 3hours with nowhere to sit was a long time and Uffizi was very crowded and too much time spent there. We had booked specifically to visit Vasari Corridor; we felt we were rushed through this part of tour, stopping at only about one in 20 paintings, so only getting cursory glances at must of the pictures. It would be much better to just do Vasari corridor (one can go to Uffizi anytime) and spend an in depth time viewing these paintings.
Finally, it was disconcerting to find ourselves on opposite side of river and left to find our own way back... The"bus on the other side of the road" which was o nly guidance we got-was going in wrong direction, one had to find a shop to get bus tkt and then wander round looking for suitable bus.. A situation we "oldies" could have done without after such a long tour on a baking hot day...
Guide was excellent, we went straight in and she was very knowledgeable, she was able to answer all the question put to her and she obviously enjoyed the interest people were taking. The Vasari Corrider was wonderful and it felt like a privilege and honour to be allowed in to see such wonders of the art world - the pastel drawdrings of the 4 sisters are amazing. It was expensive but we felt it was worth every penny and would recommend this tour even if you are not interested in art.
The Vasari Corridor is something I had wanted to do for years and it was never available when I was there. Truly enjoyed the commentary by
Michele (our guide). He was knowledgeable and gave us "insider" information that can not
be found in guide books. He made it all come
to life.
Sinisha(??) was a BRILLIANT tour guide, he knew his art and history inside out. The actual tour of the Uffizia was really JUST the highlights, which IS great of that's all you want. The Vasari corridor was wonderful, the portraits amazing and really was so much to take in but definitely worthwhile for art lovers. Was nice view and perspective to look down onto the Ponte Vecchio especially after walking on it for several days. If you are really into art would suggest you also book in to see the uffizi at a separate time to spend more time, I'm guessing with a tour or Audi tour. There were about 15 people in our group which was a good size.
We thoroughly enjoyed our 5 days in Florence. The hotel Monna Lisa was excellent as was the guided tour of the Uffizi/Vasari Corridor.
This was a fabulous experience and It was great to escape the crowds when w entered the quiet and beautiful Vasari corridor. So many wonderful portraits!
