Tour Details
Full Description
The Uffizi Gallery is Florence’s most important museum for Medieval and Renaissance masterpieces and was recently named by The Times as one of the most beautiful galleries in the world. On this tour, we will select a curated collection of paintings where you and your children can explore how subjects, styles, and techniques evolved over the centuries.
Your guide will highlight fascinating details in each artwork, helping families remember iconic pieces such as Botticelli’s Birth of Venus, Leonardo’s Annunciation, Michelangelo’s Holy Family, Raphael’s Madonna del Cardellino, and Caravaggio’s dramatic Medusa. Through interactive storytelling and child-friendly explanations, art history becomes both fun and memorable.
The Uffizi building itself is a masterpiece, originally designed by Renaissance artist and architect Giorgio Vasari, who also served as Florence’s administrator and chronicler. Its combination of art, architecture, and history makes the visit a truly immersive experience.
For added convenience, accessible routes are available for strollers, wheelchairs, and guests with reduced mobility. Families can also customize their day with optional add-ons, including visits to the Accademia Gallery to see Michelangelo’s David, or a private Florence city tour to explore the city’s streets, squares, and hidden gems.
