Uffizi Gallery Tickets with Vasari Corridor Access

Before the Vasari walk, you can visit the Uffizi Gallery for two hours. This time limit is definitely too short. Three hours would be a minimum. The Vasari Gallery is only signposted once you have almost found it. I must have asked five members of staff where the entrance was and finally asked the cleaning lady for directions. Of the two hours in the Uffizi, you should plan 20 minutes for the search for the Vasari corridor.

Museum was fine but tour of the corridor was a waste of time. Felt like the Guide would have preferred to be somewhere else. Did as little as possible to complete the tour. She did nothing to explain the significance of the corridor or the Medici family's influence on Florence. Walls of the corridor were fresh drywall which left us with a sterile, new construction feeling tour. Guide could have filled in the gaps by explaining the history.

WE LIKED: UFFIZI GALLERY WE DIDN'T LIKE: VASARI CORIDOR - after reconstruction only empty white wall space (overpass) with no arts at the time. Sculptures/busta in Coridor wraped in plastic - prepared for upcoming exhibition been said. PITTI PALACE - inside exhibitions - other disappointment - presentation of art stucked in the past - all of beautiful crystal chandeliers and statues covered by visible layer of dust/dirt... We have to say that we like art - we visited many museums and palaces around the Europe but never saw anything like that... It is pity that we cannot upload any photos to our review :(

The much-vaunted restoration of the Vasari Corridor is an immense disappointment. Except for the exterior views observable from windows and small windows, the interior of the corridor looks more like a hospital ward than a museum. Aseptic white walls and ceiling, no paintings as they were before restoration. Yes, the right word is "hospital corridor"...but no description will ever match standing in front of it. Money badly spent...mitigated only by a visit to the Uffizi. Those are worth a visit...the Corridor leave it alone for the time being.
