Having the handsets to listen to descriptions of the various art works was very helpful. Easy to operate. Crowded but not jammed.

It was good to have the audio guide but we had a hard time finding where to hook up for the tickets .
-
sehr weiterzuempfehlen - gut organisiert und den Angaben entsprechend der Buchung umgesetzt - wir hatten einen wunderbaren Besuch ohne Warteschlage in der Académie
-
Definitely purchase ticket in advance. Very busy venue. And get earliest possible entry. As time goes on during day crowd only gets worse.

Not much to be gained by using this service. If you can get your own skip the line tickets, you can rent the audio device within yourself. For ease, this worked for us, but for those on a budget, you can probably do this yourself for less.

Imperdible la ciudad de Florencia suspendida en el renacimiento y, al ir allí, sería imperdonable no hacer una pasada breve, sobre todo de mañana en qué hay menos público, por la Galleria Dell'Academia, para disfrutar del impresionante David, de Miguel Ángel, con toda su espectacularidad, belleza y perfección. Además de muchas otras obras que se exponen.
-
Very informative guide and excellent tour of Academia. The tour was the perfect length with plenty of time spent with David.
-
Muy buena opción para ahorrarse las colas y poder hacer la visita con tranquilidad. Recomendaría esta opción a cualquiera que quiera visitar La Academia.
