Parks in Florence

Avoid the Group tours by getting there early preferably 08:15 when the doors open. Go straight to the top floor for the modern art galleries. I managed to walk though these rooms practically on my own as everyone seemed to cram into the palace rooms on the first floor, which are worth a walk though. There are very little plaques to give content and history. Seems that they want you to purchase the audio tour as well. The next best thing about the palace are the gardens although much seemed to be draped in scaffolding for renovation. What with that and the palace treasure rooms being closed, I feel that this should have been reflected in the ticket price. Be very aware that every church, museum, palace and gallery has a price to get in so choose wisely.

The artwork in the Pitti Palace and the building and decor were stunning and entry was no problem with the ticket purchased via Headout. We had a problem with entry to the Boboli Gardens and the audio guide though, but Headout sorted the issue impressively quickly and sympathetically. Be aware that audio guides can be sourced too at the venue. The views from the top of the gardens were lovely; the gardens less so. Much was either not open, or under renovation so couldn't be accessed. The rest was rather unkempt and looked unloved, which was a shame - a nice quiet place for a stroll though.

A very interesting visit Through the exhibition of paintings, it effectively traces the artistic life of Florence and the lives of the important figures who have left their mark on the city. We discovered masterpieces, including the semi-precious stone inlays on the tables. We didn't even notice the time passing.

The staff at the entrance were very courteous and friendly. The tour was beautiful, and the botanical garden offered a sense of calm and openness, featuring many beautiful and unique plants. The only downside was that we weren’t able to visit the ceramics museum. Otherwise, it was a wonderful experience.

With the city pass to Florence we visited the Uffizi with the skip-the-line we skipped all the queue in front of us. We walked through the immense corridors and immersed ourselves in the most beautiful and exciting works ever . Our tour continued with a visit to the Pitti Palace and even there we avoided the people before us , between historical dresses and rooms with wonderful ceilings we experienced really good feelings among the various historical peiods . I recommend you to buy the pass to Florence very convenient and above all it will enrich you with culture .
