    What you will do

    • Piazza della Signoria

      10 min

    • With timed-entry tickets in hand, you head into the Uffizi, home to the world's greatest collection of Renaissance art. You begin in the long corridors that Cosimo I de' Medici commissioned in 1560 as government offices, while your guide explains how one family's wealth, political influence, and art patronage turned Florence into the birthplace of the Renaissance.

      Your guide then leads a planned route through the gallery's key rooms, introducing the artists, ideas, and innovations that reshaped European painting.

      Along the way, learn how mythology, religion, portraiture, and symbolism shifted across one of the most influential artistic periods in history.

      The guided visit ends inside the gallery. Revisit a favorite painting, linger in a quieter corridor, or seek out one more Renaissance master before you leave.
