We booked this tour months ago. The tour operator never purchased the tickets ahead of time. Due to the extreme heat, the Uffizi stopped selling new tickets because of AC problems. Anyone already holding a ticket could go. We were told our tour was canceled, even though we booked it a long time ago. We had problems with every Viator tour we booked in Italy. We loved using it in other countries, however.
Your website gives conflicting information and does not respond to important questions in a timely manner and it is IMPOSSIBLE TO HET S HOLD OF ANYONE BY TELEPHONE. Our Uffizi excursion was cancelled at last minute and we did not get reimbursed. We were not given access to the tickets we had bought since no one showed up to the design spot where several of us in similar situation arrived on time despite the horrible heat. We are very disappointed and will not likely use you again.
Due to the heat wave in Florence, our tour was cancelled. Since the museum was having aircon issues. We should receive a refund. I’m sure it would have been a great tour. After they sent an email to cancelled it, we received two emails to be there on time. I believe they were automated, but it was never really clear. I responded back to confirm cancellation, but never received a response.
Tour guide no showed. Despite repeated efforts to clarify and contact them, and despite multiple messages sent and two phone calls directly to the operator at the time, which were not answered , they continued to send how was your tour. There were others there with us
Do not trust Viator. We got multiple reminders to be on time for our tour. We arrived early to find out it was cancelled. We called the tour operator and they told us. Nothing from Viator. BE CAREFUL! Later we learned there was a problem with the gallery AC so they were limiting tickets online but not in person. We stood in line to get tickets and saw the gallery without a guide. The tour guide did give us a limited explanation when we called but. NOTHING but misinformation from Viator. Gallery was amazing, especially the Carvaggio area at the end.
The tour guide was a joy, passionate about the art within the building
Tour guide canceled the tour few hours prior after initial confirmation message after the booking. Sent meet up instructions after cancellation notice which was very confusing. Ended up going to meeting spot and wasted time
Pam was incredibly knowledgeable, I feel like I took a course on art history in the best way. We’ve done other museum tours and none of them even came close to how great this one was. Can’t recommend enough :)
AVOID!!!! They cancelled the tour which i found out when i showed up for the tour since they notified us via a cryptic same day viator app message . The contact person never picked up/went missing. They never bothered to email or text us about it. To make matters worse, the tickets to the museum (like to buy the general admission tickets) were completely sold out for another week meaning we were not able to visit this gallery at all. The least they could have done was ask if we wanted to be charged just the value of the ticket so we could use our reservation. Totally unprofessional and terrible customer service. Buy your own ticket direct through uffizi. (In advance) Don’t go through trip advisor or viator (use GetYourGuide instead if you need a your).
Bruce was wonderfully knowledgeable and a perfect guide for introducing my teens to the innovations of renaissance artists, he both captivated and educated us.
