Accademia Gallery Audio Guide

Great experience all around with Head out. Once we booked the tickets, we were sent very simple instructions of where to go on the day. We met at the meeting point and we were able to skip the crazy long line for people without tickets. We waited about 10 mins for the security check and then we were in! Thanks so much !

Waiting time at the reception is comfortable and air-conditioned. The local guide explains very well (Renata) and solves any doubts.

Our tour of the Accademia museum with Sarah was amazing. Sarah was very knowledgeable & made the experience of seeing the statue of David even more spectacular.

This is truly the best way to experience the Statue of David and the other historical masterpieces of the gallery without the crowds. We arrived 15 minutes early to our meetup spot, quickly received directions from surrounding employees, and got in with little to no wait. Our group of 5 was able to get through security and begin viewing art within 10 minutes of arrival with no hassle whatsoever. Once in the gallery, it was busy but still very easy to get around and view each art piece in detail due to the smaller crowds. I would recommend this experience for large travel groups or anyone with concerns about timing or crowds!

This was an excellent experience to book. The added info and knowledge I gained from having Marie as our guide was above and beyond. I highly recommend this tour.

I liked that we met our guide near the gallery vs some obscure address we're unaware of. Our guide was very knowledgeable and shared many tidbits with our group. Although the gallery was full of other groups, we were still able to get close to the art for a wonderful viewing. We'd highly recommend and will always use head out for future tours.

We recently participated in a guided tour of the Uffizi and Accademia Galleries. Our tour guide, Alex had a wealth of knowledge to share and she really brought the paintings alive for my two children. I will be recommending this tour to all my friends. Thank you, Alex for fantastic tour of the Uffizi gallery this morning!

While the crowd seemed chaotic when we walked down the street to meet our guide, it was extremely well organized and well run. We had a nice small group with an excellent guide. The tour was nicely done. Not too long, not too short. We could stay as long as we wanted after which was nice. All in all I'm glad we booked this!

Seeing the statue of David in person was amazing. We really loved seeing Michelangelo's unfinished statues as it helped us gain an understanding of his process. A video on gilded wooden panels was really interesting too. A stunningly finely embroidered tapestry was another favourite too. Had issues with both the Headout app & email on the day. I was able to access the app and tickets the night before but at the meeting pint neither the app or 'show tickets' tab in the email would open. Very weird. I had no trouble with any other travel apps on my phone so it wasn't an Internet access issue. Also, I had booked for 9:30am session but the 2 tickets the host gave us were forv8:55-9am & 9-9:15am. Fortunately we stayed as long as we like in the gallery so all ended well.

Our tour guide was awesome! The tour focused on the statues of Michealangelo, and that's what was interesting to me. The museum also has rooms of busts, paintings, and musical instruments!

I love the whole experience and doing the tour with otehr people. It was amazing to finally see Michealangelo's Obra Maestra, DAVID. The tour guide is very knowledgeable and has sense of humor which I think is a very important skill to embody so the participants will have fun at the same time.

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and helped us to appreciate the art and history related to Florence. We definitely recommend!

You cannot go to Florence and not see David! The tour guide arranged our entry quickly, bringing us from the meeting point, a short walk from the Accademia, straight into the entrance. The quick entry was worth the price, this visit isn't cheap though!! There are some wonderful pieces here, so take your time to explore, rather than head straight for David. And when you turn into the gallery to see him, perfectly positioned in great natural light, it does take your breath away. Also, walking all around him to get the full effect, you will admire Michelangelo's attention to detail, something I never fully appreciated from photos previously. Thus can be a short visit, but definitely worth it!!

Great guide! Was. Wet thorough and gave a lot of information! Was able to appreciate the art much better with guide than if we went alone.

I booked the tickets and it was easy to get them delivered, I bought the child's ticket quickly and the line was about 15 minutes. Good service

Fantastic guided tour, made the whole experience so very comfortable and easy to what is one of the must see attractions in Florence! Isabella, our guide was lovely.. knowledgeable with a brilliant command over English, really brings the experience to life with all sorts of fun bits of in insight into history..

It was a great experience especially thanks to our guide who told us great stories and history about the art pieces and the gallery.

Very easy to collect tickets. Pick up point was exactly where detailed. There was no skip the queue area that was mentioned but the museum had a very organised process for getting people in and the wait time was not long. Id recommend booking early tickets so you get the museum at a slightly quieter time before it gets busy.

We booked the Accademia Gallery Skip-the-Line Guided Tour through Headout and had a great experience. Skipping the extremely long line was worth it alone, but the tour itself exceeded expectations. Our group was small, which made it easy to follow and ask questions. The guide was incredibly informative—we learned so much about the history and artistry of the museum, especially the iconic statue of David, which was absolutely breathtaking in person. The tour lasted about an hour and covered all the key highlights of the Accademia Gallery, with just the right balance of depth and pace. Highly recommend this tour if you want a richer, more meaningful visit without the stress of waiting in line.

Claudio was very informative and we loved how he explained Michelangelo's early and older works. Very interesting! And to see the statue of David in person is magical.

I visited the Academia Gallery specifically to see Michelangelo’s David, which of course was spectacular. The Gallery was also filled with beautiful treasures, both paintings and sculpture, including a beautiful fresco fragment by Giotto. My favorite room of all was the Lorenzo Bartolini’s Plaster Casts Gallery, which felt like stepping into a Renaissance painting.

Statue of David. It just took your breath away to walk in and see it. Surreal We were walking g past and saw the queues. Looked online and there was a free spot skip the line. Booked dashed over the the shop to collect our tickets and were in in 15 mins. So fortunate. Great ppl working the doors with no language barriers.

Fantastic place with loads of great art. Extremely crowded but that was not surprising really. Was easy using headout. Guy with tickets was easy to find and it did mean we could head straight in with just a brief security check. Michaelangelo's David is fantastic and so glad I've seen the real thing.

Michelangelo's David is my favorite scupture ever!! Great service with timed tickets! Very easy and fast! Totally recommend it!

The guide was excellent with great information. Entry was easy and quick. The woman contact was not pleasant or helpful. She stated she had called my number twice, I had no missed calls, a issue with internataional connection? She was unpleasant. Guide excellent, meet up woman, meh

Very Kind and helpful! Wonderful tour and information
