Itinerary

Accademia Gallery Timed-Entry Ticket with Audio Guide

Head through security with a host and behold Michelangelo's David while listening to app commentary

Your tour begins near the Accademia Gallery

Meet your host a short stroll from the museum in Florence’s compact historic center. Check in, confirm your timed entry, and get a quick briefing on how entry works.

Walk to the Accademia Gallery entrance

Walk a few minutes to the Accademia entrance. Along the way, listen as your host shares helpful tips to ensure you’re ready to explore independently inside. Arrive ready to enter at your allocated ticket time.

Enter the Accademia at your timed slot

Go through the required security screening, then enter at your reserved time with your group. Your host brings everyone in together so there are no mishaps at the door. Once inside, the visit becomes fully self-guided.

Explore independently with the audio guide app

Having already installed the audio guide app on your phone, you’re all set to explore at your own pace. Pause when a room pulls you in, and tune into your audio guide for fascinating stories and details about the artwork. It's a structured, but never rushed experience.

See Michelangelo’s David up close

Head to the Tribune and let the space slow you down the way it was designed to. The audio guide helps you spot details most people miss, from the tension in the pose to the light on the marble. Linger here, then drift back through the galleries as you please.

Your tour ends inside the Accademia Gallery

After entry, you are free to stay inside the gallery as long as you'd like. Once you step back outside, you are perfectly placed for the best of Florence: an espresso at the bar, a loop through San Lorenzo, or an easy walk toward the Duomo.
