Planning your visit to Florence
For short stays, consider purchasing a Firenze Card which for €72 gives access to a huge number of museums. It also allows you to avoid queueing.
Book in advance: In my experience it is worth booking in advance for the Uffizi and the Accademia (to see the David).This can be done online or by phoning (0039) 055-294-88. There is a €4 reservation cost.
Bear in mind that a lot of sights are closed on Mondays. Click here and on the page click on the .pdf link at the end of the post to download a full list of opening and closing times.
Did you know that all museums are free on the first Sunday of every month?
