The Experience

The moment you open your digital pass, Florence spreads out in front of you like a menu you didn't know you could order from. You're not locked into a fixed itinerary — instead, you choose between 2 and 7 attractions depending on what you booked, and you decide when to visit each one. The Uffizi Gallery sits at the top of most lists, and for good reason: it holds some of the world's most recognizable paintings, from Botticelli's Birth of Venus to works that shaped how we see the Renaissance. The Accademia Gallery is where Michelangelo's David stands, and no photograph prepares you for the actual scale of it. But the pass also opens doors to smaller, less crowded places — the San Marco Museum with its frescoes by Beato Angelico, the Medici Museum tucked into one of the city's most beautiful buildings, the Leonardo Interactive Museum if you want to see how his mechanical ideas actually worked.

What makes this different from just buying individual tickets is the flexibility and the hop-on hop-off bus included in your package. You're not rushing between museums on a set schedule; you move at your own pace across 30 days of validity. The bus lets you see neighborhoods without navigating on foot, and you can hop off whenever something catches your eye. Some attractions need advance booking — the Uffizi and Accademia especially, since they fill up weeks ahead — but many others don't, so you can wander into Orsanmichele Church and climb to the second floor for an unobstructed view of Florence's rooftops, or step into the Cattedrale dell'Immagine in the restored church of Santo Stefano al Ponte without planning ahead. The pass arrives as a digital file after you book, and you activate it the first time you actually visit an attraction.

The practical thing to know: popular spots like the Uffizi and Accademia do sell out in advance, especially in peak season, so reserve your time slots as soon as your pass arrives. Everything is wheelchair accessible, and if you're traveling with young children, strollers work fine. You pick your first day of use when you purchase, and from there the 30 days start counting down only once you walk through your first museum door.

Top questions

Do I need to book all my attractions at the same time?

No. You receive your digital pass after booking, then log in to select which attractions you want and reserve time slots for those requiring advance booking. You can spread visits across your 30-day window.

What happens if the Uffizi or Accademia are fully booked for my dates?

Both attractions have limited capacity and do sell out in advance. The pass includes access to them, but you'll need to find an available time slot. Booking your preferred times as soon as you receive your pass gives you the best chance of getting in.

Is the hop-on hop-off bus included in every pass option?

Yes. The 24-hour hop-on hop-off bus is included as part of the Flex Pass, regardless of how many attractions you choose.

Can I use the pass on different days, or do I have to use it all at once?

You can spread your visits across 30 days. The pass activates on the day you visit your first attraction and remains valid for 30 days from that date.

Are guided tours included, or do I explore on my own?

Guided walking tours and bike tours are available as options within your pass, but they're not automatic. You can choose to add them or explore independently.

Do I need to print anything, or is the digital pass enough?

The pass is fully digital. You access it on your phone or device at each attraction — no printing required.
