We were a group of four adults and three children (ages 11, 11, and 9) and our guide (Martina, I think) made the Uffizi Museum fun for all of us. She rightly paid the most attention to the kids and challenged them with games to keep them engaged. They learned a lot, but so did the adults. I think by going into less detail than an adult tour would, and only emphasizing the highlights, we were all able to enjoy the museum. All of us will remember this tour for the rest of our lives. I highly recom

Full Description
Introduce your children to the wonder of Renaissance art on our Uffizi Tour for Kids & Families, a playful and interactive journey through one of the world’s most celebrated art collections. Led by a lively, kid-friendly guide, this tour turns the Uffizi into a treasure-filled storybook, where paintings and sculptures become characters waiting to be discovered.
Young explorers follow a fun treasure trail through the galleries, spotting animals, symbols, stories, and hidden details in masterpieces by Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, Giotto, and Caravaggio. Through imaginative storytelling, games, and visual clues, kids learn how artists used color, light, and symbols to communicate long before movies, comics, or cartoons existed.
Highlights include discovering the magic behind Botticelli’s Birth of Venus, exploring myths and secrets in Primavera, understanding Leonardo’s experiments, and finding dramatic contrasts in Caravaggio’s paintings. Children become “art detectives,” solving puzzles and unlocking hidden meanings throughout the tour.
Designed with a gentle pace, this experience keeps children engaged, curious, and delighted while giving adults a meaningful introduction to Renaissance art.
A joyful, creative way for families to experience Florence’s most famous art treasure.

Martin S. — Australia We had a great time in Florence. Martina did an excellent job with our 8 years old daughter keeping her interested and entertained with games involving Florence history, art and culture. Not only kids will learn a lot with this tour but also the parents and/or other adults. We will definitely recommend this tour to anyone traveling to Italy (Florence) with kids. Thank You!

Sophie C. — United States It was our first stay in Florence and visiting the Uffizi Gallery was an unforgettable experience. Our guide, Giulia, was fantastic: my children (ages 9 and 5) had so much fun and she managed to keep everyone engaged throughout the tour. She explained the artworks in a clear and captivating way, making the visit enjoyable for all of us.
