With over 100 rooms and 13,000 square meters of exhibition spaces, the Uffizi is one of the most famous art galleries in Italy. Plan your itinerary based on the time you have available:

1.5-2 hours

Focus on the second floor to see the greatest masterpieces of the Renaissance.

Note: If you exit through the Lanzi Staircase, you will miss the cloakroom, audioguide return desk, and main museum shop. Take the main exit to ensure you don't miss them.

2 hours

Explore both the second and first floors to see Italian and European art from the 13th to 17th centuries.

3+ hours

Visit all rooms, including the renowned Self-Portrait Collection, descending from the second to the first floor through the Lanzi Staircase.

I’m not a big fan of crowds. Can I purchase tickets in advance to skip the line and ensure entry during peak hours?

Yes, of course! You can avoid crowds and bypass long queues with skip-the-line tickets. Choose the ​Uffizi Gallery tickets or ​skip-the-line guided tour a hassle-free experience. Even the ​VIP small-group guided tour helps you beat the queues with priority entry.

What time does the cark park open?

Uffizi Gallery does not have a car park of its own, but there are plenty of parking options. You can check out Garage Palazzo Vecchio, which is active throughout the week from 7am to 12am.

Can I see both Uffizi Gallery and the David statue in a single day?

Yes, of course! Uffizi Gallery won't take more than a few hours, and Accademia, where the statue is, won't take you long either. You can even find time to see the 7 other galleries inside Accademia. Opt for the ​Uffizi and Accademia (David) guided tour and save up on time and money.

Does the timing vary by season or during holidays?

The gallery is open from Tuesday to Sunday, 8:15am to 6:50pm with the last admission at 5:30pm, so depending on the season, the crowds may differ a bit. During peak season (April-October), early weekdays offer the best chance for a comfortable experience.

Is a public holiday the best time to go to Uffizi Gallery?

No, because the ​Uffizi Gallery is one of the most frequented tourist places in Florence. If you want to avoid large crowds, it is better to avoid visiting the gallery on public holidays and weekends.

Are there early bird or late-night special hours available?

No official early-bird or late-night access is available at the Uffizi Gallery at the moment.

What if I miss the entry time on my ticket?

That would be unfortunate, and nothing can be done sadly. You will need to re-purchase your ​tickets online or at the venue.

What if I arrive earlier than my entry time?

Arriving earlier than your entry time usually means waiting until the designated time slot. But sometimes, you may be allowed early entry if capacity permits. If not, there’s so much to do around the Uffizi Gallery. You can explore the surrounding areas, you can walk by the Arno River, and stroll on the iconic Ponte Vecchio. Or you can pick up a book and sit having coffee at one of the cafes nearby. Trattoria Ponte Vecchio, Trattoria Antico Fattore or get gelato at Gelateria Morè.

How much earlier do I have to arrive for my time slot?

It's recommended to arrive at least 15-20 minutes before your scheduled timeslot to allow for any queues at the entrance.

What happens if I am late?

If you're late, your entry might be delayed or denied, depending on the gallery's capacity and ticketing policy at that time.

Is there a time limit on my visit?

There's no strict time limit for your ​visit at all! You can spend as much time as you want in the gallery, but on average, visitors spend about 2-3 hours exploring the gallery's extensive collections.
