We were pleased to be... - We were pleased to be given the tour by our guide Martina, who was knowledgeable and showed a keen interest in her subject; in addition we were fortunate that the Museum of Musical Instruments within the Accademia was open when we visited, without additional charge, and Martina was also able to speak to us about the artefacts we saw there. Thoroughly recommend.

Well worth it! - Olga was a wonderful guide, gave us clear instructions and information around the tour. The pace was perfect and our questions were answered. We only had to wait about 5 minutes to get in. The regular queue was huge! My only beef with these kind of tours is the use of disposable headsets. Haven't been on a tour since before the Covid pandemic and I was surprised to see that sustainable audio solutions haven't yet caught on. It's a wasteful use of electronics I wouldn't give Italy Pass less than 5 stars though as that would be unfair as all the tours seem to operate in this way. Could the rubber ear cup be changed for each tour instead of the whole ear piece? Also many tourists just discard the empty packets on the street.

Unorganized and Late! - Terrible experience! Tour left office 20 minutes late. We had a 9:45am tour. Once we got to the Accademia, we had to wait before getting tickets. Then, we missed our 9:45 am window. We finally got in the 10:15am line. Mind you, they tell you to show up 20 minutes before. Once we got in line, we couldn’t go into the museum because we had too many people for the tour. My ticket was at 9:45am and I had been waiting since 9:25 / 9:30am. We had a hard stop in an hour. The tour was only supposed to last an hour. We ended up leaving because they were still waiting to get in. Once we got in, I was told we were going to get a new tour guide. We waited and waited. Finally, we had in our headsets and we left. In totally, we waited about an hour for nothing. We didn’t have the 1-hour tour because there was a challenge with the number of people. There was a challenge with the original tour guide. I don’t know what was going on with this company. Save your money and time. Skip this tour!
