Museums in Florence

It has been a wonderful and unforgettable experience; every place has incredible stories. Thanks to the app, everything was possible and convenient.

A smooth entry. Clearly marked stations outside with the time slots; inside, we exchanged our e-tickets for paper ones (nice to keep as a souvenir), and then we were off to explore the beautiful museum! It was great!

Truly unexpected and spectacular. The climb is an experience in itself, and reaching those views and that splendor is wonderful. Highly recommended.

The admission process was fine, but it would have been helpful to let us know that we had to check our backpacks at the coat check before entering. We waited 20–30 minutes before entering, only to be denied entry because of our backpacks. I had to run to drop them off, and we caught up with the group just in the nick of time. We weren’t the only ones in this situation. Please add this to the admission procedure. Otherwise, the climb up to the Duomo is worth it, and so is the cathedral itself.

The small group and detailed information about the art. The your was 1.5 hours and full of information. The pace was just right. Never felt rushed.

We split the day up with lunch in between. Good thing too as it's a lot of walking. Be prepared for lots of steps at the Uffizi (there are lifts). Crowds are unavoidable (we went at 10:15am) but not too excessive. Some amazing art and history I'm glad we visited. The Accademia was smaller and to see David in all his splendour was magnificent. I don't regret a penny spent. The whole area of Florence is beautiful and I'm so glad of the experience. Tickets bought through Headout were easy .... except transferring the online tickets to physical ones at Accademia was not that easy to follow. That could have been us though!

The quick and hassle-free entry and the informative German audio guide made booking through Headout well worth it (not to mention the clear directions to where the tickets were picked up, and the handover and explanation provided by the woman who gave us the tickets!)

I liked how there was not a line to enter the museum. We were able to get in right away. Also, I liked how it was not very crowded inside the museum, and I was able to look at the displays and read the descriptions and do the activities without being rushed. I really enjoyed the interactive activities which were very different from the other museums where you just look at or read the descriptions of the displays.
