The most popular attractions in Florence

The design of the gallery was fabulous, with the decorated ceiling on the central hallway holding the busts. We booked this tour on the last day of our Florence trip and I'm happy we did. Not only were we able to see some great works of art but also we have learned about the structure of the encompassing area according to our guide's explanation. It was surely a memorable tour. Thanks guys :-)

I enjoyed this place so much

It was wavering the quality and quantity of artwork on display in the gallery. Uffizi was full of astounding sculptures and arts of the Reanassian with some great masterpieces from Michelangelo and others. The entry part of the gallery was very cool as we didn't have to wait a long time in the queue to get in. An extraordinary accumulation of some of Italy’s most prominent artwork so not to be missed.

One of the more interesting aspects of my trip

The view of the Uffizi and its U-shaped structure was excellent. Being there and seeing those works of art by talented artists was a great opportunity for me. Absolutely mind-blowing that has no objection. The Gallery filled with almost the most magnificent collection of portraits and classical sculpture. Even if you are not an enthusiast of museums but if you are in Florence you should visit Uffizi for once. You’ll regret it if you won’t!

The pictures are excellent

Uffizi was the right place to explore the great amount of arts and sculptures created by many talented artists. There was an immense collection of great Renaissance art from that time period. We spent 2 hours here and I felt like I was back at that Renaissance time.
