  • Tips From Travelers

Tourist attraction passes provide discounts on a variety of different activities, museums, tours, day trips, and more.

Some passes include jump-the-line entry at certain locations, allowing you to save both time and money.

Here are a few of the more popular attractions included with most Florence tourist passes:

  • Uffizi Gallery
  • Accademia Gallery
  • Brunelleschi's Dome
  • Mario Marini Museum
  • Casa Martelli Museum
  • Jewish Museum & Synagogue
  • National Archaeological Museum
  • Guided Florence Bike Tour
  • Florence Walking Tour
  • Pisa Walking Tour

This is just a handful of the activities you can expect to save money on with a visitor pass in this city.

Each service has its own unique advantages that aren’t included in other passes.

Depending on which pass you choose, you could save anywhere from 10% - 50% or more off general entry prices.

For more details, check out our before you buy section below .

BEFORE YOU BUY

Although these visitor passes can be a great way to save money on popular sites, it’s important to consider how you’ll be spending your time in Florence before picking a pass.

This section will provide details about how each type of pass works and the best way to use them.

This type of pass includes entry to dozens of different attractions for a specific amount of time (1, 2, or 3 days).

Rather than paying for individual tickets, you’ll pay one flat price for access to a variety of activities that you can enjoy while your pass is valid.

The best way to take advantage of this pass is to use it for the most expensive attractions included and enjoy as many of them as possible.

Typically, you’ll need to use this service at least 4-5 times per day in order to save a decent amount of money.

That said, if you use it effectively, you can save 50% or more with an all-inclusive pass.

These services also include skip-the-line admission at certain popular locations, which means you won’t have to wait in line to get a ticket and take a look inside!

You can also use an all-inclusive pass for additional concessions on day trips, wine tours and more.

This service focuses primarily on museums, national monuments, and other historic locations, and it actually includes admission to more sites than any other Florence visitor pass.

The pass is active for 3 full days, giving you plenty of time to explore the city at your own leisure and enjoy as many sites as possible.

Like their competitors, you’ll pay one flat price for everything.

florence tour pass

It’s important to note that most people won’t actually be able to enjoy everything included with the pass simply because there are so many different locations to visit.

Another issue is that this pass does not include any tours, so if you want to take a tour or day trip, you might want to consider another service.

That said, the Museum Pass includes a lot of sites that aren’t on any other pass, and they offer free admission to any family members joining you who are 18 or under.

If you’re going to Florence with your family, it’s nice to know that you won’t need to buy any additional pass for your kids!

This pass can be purchased with an additional travel card which will allow you to hop on and off public transport lines throughout the city for 3 full days, making it easy to get from one museum to the next.

Prepackaged Pass

Unlike other passes, this type of service provides a few specific activities and offers a flat discount of 20% off all additional sites or excursions.

You’ll pay one flat price for the pass, but anything not prepackaged will simply be discounted.

This is currently the only pass in Florence to provide a hop-on, hop-off bus tour, so if you’re interested in that service, you may want to consider this option.

In addition to admission to two popular sites, the prepackaged pass also provides an airport transfer that will take you to the city.

The best part about this pass is that there is no time limit, so you don’t have to worry about using it for as many different attractions as possible while it’s valid.

Another advantage to this pass is that a lot of the activities included with the 20% discount are not available with any other service, making this one of the only ways to save money on those attractions.

While this is a good deal even if you don’t use the additional discounts, that’s really what sets the prepackaged pass apart from others.

If you can’t find a tourist pass you like, there are always combo deals you can buy to save money on various activities.

These packages typically include at least one walking tour or bus tour, and they might also include admission to a popular attraction.

florence tour pass

Although you won’t save a lot of money with this option, you can expect a discount of at least 10% - 20% off the usual ticket prices.

While a visitor pass will typically include discounted admission to dozens of attractions, a combo package usually only includes 2-3 activities at most.

ALL-INCLUSIVE PASS

The following section will provide details about the all-inclusive tourist pass available in Florence.

We’ll include information about how much it costs, which sites are included and how to save money with the service.

In Florence, Italy, the all-inclusive pass provides access to several significant sites.

Visitors can explore the architecture of the Florence Cathedral and delve into art at the Galleria dell'Accademia, where works by renowned artists like Michelangelo and Botticelli are housed.

The pass also covers entry to historical places like Santa Croce and offers insights through an audio guide app.

It's a convenient way to ensure a comprehensive experience of the city's Renaissance heritage without the hassle of multiple bookings.

Florence Turbopass

With more than a dozen activities included, this tourist pass is perfect for anyone who wants an introduction to the city of Florence.

In addition to covering entry to several popular museums, sites, and tours, this pass also includes additional discounts on a variety of tours, day trips, and other fun things to do.

Firenze City Pass Turbopass

One of the best things about the Turbopass is that it includes skip-the-line admission to some of the most popular museums in the city, allowing you to save time by avoiding the ticket line!

This pass can be bought for either 1, 2, or 3 days in a row.

The longer you have it, the easier it will be to enjoy all of the benefits included. You’ll also pay less per day by buying either a 2 or 3-day pass.

Here are some of the most popular attractions included with the Florence Turbopass:

  • Uffizi Gallery (skip-the-line) | €24 
  • Accademia Gallery (skip-the-line) | €16

  • Jewish Museum & Synagogue | €6.50

Sample Itinerary

If you're wondering how much money you can actually save with this service, this sample itinerary will give you a look at how a traveler could use the 3-day pass.

  • Hop-on Hop-off Tour | €23
  • Uffizi Gallery | €17
  • Accademia Gallery | €17
  • Guided Bike Tour | 20% off (€7.80 off)

  • Chianti Half-Day Wine Tour | 30% off (€13.50 off)

Total Price: €92.90

Total Savings: €135.30

Total Discount: €42.40 (31% off)

While this pass is a good deal even if you just use it for the included activities, you’ll enjoy the most savings by using it for the additional discounted day trips and tours.

The main issue with the Florence Turbopass is that you really have to use it for as many attractions as possible in order to save some money. 

If you’re interested in seeing each of the museums and other locations included with this pass and you don’t mind spending 3 consecutive days darting around the city to visit them all, this is a great discount opportunity.

Although it is recommended to purchase a travel card to get around the city, this service is not included with the Turbopass.

MUSEUM PASS

In this section, we’ll cover all the details you need to know about the Florence museum pass, including how to use the pass, which attractions are provided and the price of the service.

Firenze Card

If you’re looking for a pass that will cover a lot of different museums and attractions, this service provides admission to more sites than any other tourist pass in Florence.

The Firenze Card is valid for a total of 3 days, giving you plenty of time to explore the city and see as much as possible with the pass.

Visitors with this card will receive priority access (skip-the-line) to each museum included with the exception of the Grande Museo del Duomo Complex.

While you will need to make reservations at a few locations to get priority access, most sites will let you skip the ticket queue simply by showing your Firenze Card.

Best of all, this tourist pass includes free admission for all family members under the age of 18.

If you’re a parent with kids, this is an invaluable resource that ensures you won’t have to buy any additional passes or tickets!

Aside from the attractions, this tourist pass also provides discounts on a variety of services including tours, restaurants, shopping, entertainment and more.

Deals range from 10% - 40% off.

In addition to their main pass, this company also provides what they call the Firenze Card +, which will give you access to the city’s public transportation for 3 full days – including buses, trams, and ATAF.

Here are some of the most popular attractions and museums included with the Firenze Card:

  • Uffizi Gallery | €17 
  • Brunelleschi's Dome | €18
  • Brancacci Chapel | €10
  • Palazzo Vecchio Museum | €4
  • Santa Maria Novella | €7.50
  • Palazzo Medici Riccardi | €7

  • Galileo Museum | €10
  • Dante’s House | €4
  • Laurentian Library | €3
  • Basilica of San Lorenzo | €8
  • And many more!
  • Firenze Card: €85 per person
  • Firenze Card + (travel card): €7

Buy the Firenze Card or learn more .

In total, this tourist pass currently provides admission to 78 different museums and attractions in Florence, making it the most extensive discount card in the city.

That said, it should be noted that the Firenze Card does not include any tours and you have to buy a travel card separately, so you won’t save much money on transportation.

Thankfully, one of the discounts they offer is on City Sightseeing bus tours, allowing you to save 10% off general admission!

Similar to the all-inclusive pass, it will be important to use the Firenze Card for as many attractions as possible while it is valid in order to get the biggest possible discount.

The more locations you visit with this pass, the more money you’ll end up saving on entry costs – and it’s not difficult to do since there are so many different attractions to choose from!

Note: Firenze Card is currently available as of December 2023.

PREPACKAGED PASS

This section provides information about the prepackaged pass, including details about which activities they offer, how you can use this service to save money and what it costs.

The Florence Pass

While every other pass is only valid for a few days at most, this is the only one that has no time limit, allowing you to explore the city at your own leisure.

The Florence City Pass is the only pass that includes a hop on hop off bus tour (€23) and a 2-way airport transfer (€10), making transportation around the city much easier.

In addition to those services, you’ll also receive admission to the following popular sites:

  • Uffizi Gallery (skip-the-line) | €17  
  • Accademia Gallery (skip-the-line) | €17
  • Brunelleschi's Dome (skip-the-line) | €18
  • Florence Audio Guide | €7.50

Aside from these attractions and activities, the Florence City Pass also provides an across the board 10% discount on a variety of additional tours, day trips, restaurants and more.

These additional concessions are where the pass really shines, as there are some services included that aren’t available on any other tourist pass.

Here are a few examples of activities with a 10% discount:

  • Pisa Day Trip
  • Palazzo Vecchio
  • Bargello Museum
  • Museo di San Marco
  • Franco Zeffirelli Museum
  • Pisa Hop on Hop off Bus Tour
  • Palazzo Pitti & Palatine Gallery
  • Florence Rafting Excursion
  • Hop-on Hop-off Bus Tours
  • €105/Adults (18+)
  • Kids 6 and under are free
  • 10% off with coupon code FTOUR10

Buy the Florence City Pass or learn more .

If you look at the individual price of every activity and attraction included, it’s clear that if you actually want to save any money with this pass, it will be necessary to take advantage of their additional services for 10% off.

This is an especially good deal if you want to take a day trip to Pisa, Venice or Rome, as each of these activities are included at a concession.

That said, if you have no interest in the additional concessions, the Florence City Pass is not worth it for the guaranteed services alone. Please keep that in mind before making a buy.

Florence City Pass

This is a somewhat interesting prepackaged pass, because it is technically offered more like an all-inclusive pass with a set number of days in which you can use it.

What separates this tourist pass from an all-inclusive service is that it only includes a specific set number of attractions.

Their 1 day pass covers the cost of the Uffizi Gallery and The Dome of Santa Maria del Fiore. You can also get a version of the 1 day pass that includes entry to the Accademia Gallery.

Alternatively, if you want more time to see as much as possible, you can get their 5 day pass which provides admission to the Uffizi Gallery, Palazzo Pitti, Boboli Gardens, The Dome of Santa Maria del Fiore, and the Accademia Gallery.

Each of the tickets allows you to skip-the-line, and provides access to an audio guide.

  • €89 per person
  • €119 per person
  • €145/Adults | €65/Children
  • Not currently available as of December 2023.

Although this is an interesting option, it's worth noting that you'll probably save more money with one of the other Florence tourist passes on our list.

That said, if you're just looking for a pass that includes all the attractions you want to visit with skip-the-line privileges and audio guides, this is an excellent option worth considering.

This is really a must for anyone who wants to visit Brunelleschi's Dome, as tickets for that attraction can be quite costly (€47 on average).

When you factor in the cost of the other activities included with this pass, the price is actually very good.

Uffizi + Accademia Pass

Much like the Florence City Pass, this service also includes entry to both the Uffizi Gallery and Accademia Gallery.

In addition to those attractions, you'll also receive a Florence audio guide which provides useful tips and details about various historic locations you might want to visit throughout the city.

This tourist pass also includes a 10% discount on a multitude of other attractions and activities, including the following:

  • €59 per person
  • €1 for Youth w/ Adult
  • 10% off with coupon code  FTOUR10

Buy this tourist pass or learn more .

Although it doesn't include entry to Brunelleschi's Dome, it's easy to see how the price of this pass beats some competitors by a wide margin.

Even if you wanted to visit Brunelleschi's Dome as well, you could still save an extra 10% off that attraction with this pass.

That said, anyone who is mostly interested in the arts will likely find this pass more than sufficient.

COMBO PACKAGES

In addition to all the tourist passes available in Florence, there are also several combo packages to choose from.

This section will provide details about some of the best combo deals in the city and how much they cost.

Hop on Hop off Bus Tour + Uffizi Gallery

Tips From Locals and Travelers

When it comes to discount passes, travelers can be pretty opinionated, and it's very useful to see what they have to say when you're not sure whether or not to use one of these services.

florence tour pass

Luckily, there are a lot of interesting Facebook groups like Florence & Tuscany Travel Tips and our own Rome Travel Tips group, and sometimes users will make very helpful suggestions.

Here are a few of the better recommendations from locals and travelers who use these groups.

florence tour pass

While some attractions on these tourist passes don't need to be pre-booked, others do require you to book your ticket ahead of time.

In these cases, you'll often be able to book your time using the website or app for the discount pass.

That said, it can sometimes be difficult to decide when to purchase the pass in order to make sure you can actually book your ticket for a time that fits your schedule.

florence tour pass

Danielle asks a very poignant question that does reveal one of the problems with tourist passes. Sometimes it's not entirely clear what counts as activating the pass.

In most cases, the pass won't activate until you actually arrive to the location and use the pass, so you should be able to book your time slot well ahead of time without fear.

Even so, Mark makes a good point in suggesting to check with the operator of the pass before making any assumptions.

florence tour pass

Jill has perhaps the most useful advice of all, noting that while she found that the Firenze Card was worth it for her plans, it's important to do some research first.

While these discount cards can save you a lot of money, they might not be as useful if you're not planning to see a lot of the attractions inlcuded.

florence tour pass

Another user notes that sometimes you'll still have to wait in line just to redeem the tickets included with your pass, so it might not be worth it if you're just buying a pass to skip the line.

florence tour pass

However, other travelers found the Firenze Card very useful, noting that if you use it during the shoulder periods, chances are there won't be as many crowds and you won't have to worry as much about making reservations.

For even more helpful advice, make sure to check the Florence & Tuscany Travel Tips group on Facebook and perhaps ask their users a question!

  • More info and reservations Florence Super Combi

3) FirenzeCard

The FirenzeCard is a city pass that allows you to visit 60 museums and palaces in Florence for 72 hours. This official city pass is especially recommended if you want to visit a lot of cultural locations, because you save a lot of money because numerous small museums are included.

  • Advantage : No less than 60 museums, churches and attractions are included, including Palazzo Pitti, Uffizi, Galleria dell'Accademia, Palazzo Vecchio, Palazzo Medici Riccardi and the Medici Chapels.
  • Disadvantage : You will first need to collect the FirenzeCard at one of the collection points in Florence. You will also have to make reservations (by phone) for the larger museums like the Uffizi, Galleria dell'Accademia and Capella Brancacci. This makes the FirenzeCard less user-friendly than the above-mentioned Florence city passes with priority tickets for the major museums.

Florence City Pass Review: Is It Worth It?

Florence City Pass Review - picture of city's skyline

This article may contain references to some of our advertising partners. Should you click on these links, we may be compensated. For more about our advertising policies, read our  full disclosure statement  here.

In this Florence City Pass review, we break down how the pass works, what it costs, and whether it’s the right choice for your travel plans. 

Ah, Florence. Birthplace of the Italian Renaissance. Home to iconic art and architecture, beautiful weather, and fine Italian food and wine. What’s not to love?

Well, maybe the cost. While it’s not the most expensive city in Italy, when you consider airfare, hotels, dining, and sightseeing, it’s not exactly the cheapest place to travel either.

Hopefully, you’re using travel rewards to cover some flight and accommodation costs. (If not, we need to talk!) But as any traveler knows, the expenses don’t stop once you arrive. In a city like Florence, skimping on sightseeing is not an option. Everywhere you look, there are world-famous museums, historic monuments, and beautiful churches.

Sightseeing passes are one of my favorite way to cut costs without cutting experiences. Today, I want to tell you about the Florence City Pass from TurboPass. Can it help you save money? Is it worth a buy? Let’s find out!

What Is the Florence City Pass?

Florence CityPass Logo

The Florence City Pass from TurboPass is an all-inclusive sightseeing pass designed to save you money and time when you visit Florence. The pass is filled mostly with museums and tours. It’s available for one, two, or three consecutive calendar days.

Unlike most sightseeing passes, when you buy the Florence City Pass online, you have to choose your start date. If you go for the one-day pass, it will activate at 12:01 am that day and expire at midnight. The multi-day passes are valid until midnight on the last day.

The Florence City Pass includes timed entry to the Uffizi Gallery and the Accademia Gallery, meaning you get to skip the ticket line at two of the most sought-after attractions in Italy. It also means, however, that you need to choose the date and preferred time of your visit when you buy the pass.

For all the other attractions, you can visit them any time during the life of your pass. Some of the tours require reservations, so make sure you have a look at the info that comes with the pass so you know what to expect.

Let’s check out the attractions to see if they pique your interest.

Attractions on the Florence City Pass

The following attractions are included in the cost of the Florence City Pass. I’ve included the regular adult admission prices for reference:

  • Uffizi Gallery – €29
  • Accademia Gallery – €16
  • Leonardo da Vinci Museum – €8
  • Jewish Museum and Synagogue – €6.50
  • Walking Tour: Welcome to Florence – €35
  • Casa Buonarroti Museum – €6.50
  • Innocenti Museum – €7
  • Shuttle Bus to Barberino Designer Outlet – €13
  • National Archaeological Museum – €8
  • Museum of Musical Instruments – (Inside Accademia Gallery)
  • Franco Zeffirelli Museum – €12
  • Museum of San Marco – €8
  • Opificio delle Pietre Dure – €4
  • Find the full list here

These attractions are discounted with the pass. That means you still have to pay admission out of pocket, but it will be at a reduced rate:

  • Chianti Half Day Wine Tour – 20% off
  • Day Trip: Montalcino, Montepulciano, Pienza, & Wine Tasting – 20% off
  • Day Trip: Siena, San Gimignano, and Pisa with Lunch – 20% off
  • The Best of Cinque Terre & Porto Venere – 35% off
  • Guided E-Bike Tour – 20% off
  • …and more

*Prices current as of August 09, 2023. Some attractions may require reservations. Additionally, some attractions may have limited capacity and/or limited operating hours.

Florence City Pass Pricing

OK, so now that you know what’s included in the Florence City Pass , let’s take a look at pricing to see if it’s a good deal.

To be honest, I couldn’t believe it when I saw these prices. It’s standard for multi-day passes to yield better value than a 1-day pass, but this is unreal! The 2-day pass only costs €10 more than the 1-day pass, and the 3-day pass only costs another €5 above that.

Put another way, with the 1-day pass, you pay €77.90 per day compared to €30.97 per day with the 3-day pass.

What’s the key take away? The 3-day pass is by far the best value. In fact, I wouldn’t bother with the 1-day pass at all (more on that later).

But, is the Florence City Pass even a good deal? Let’s crunch some numbers to see how to save money with the 3-day pass.

Let’s say you take on the following itinerary:

  • Academia Gallery at opening time
  • Innocenti Museum
  • Welcome to Florence Walking Tour at 1:30
  • Leonardo da Vinci Museum after the tour
  • Total saved with pass = €66
  • Uffizi first thing in the morning
  • Half-day Chianti Wine Tour
  • Total saved with pass = €42.50
  • Cinque Terre Day Trip
  • Total saved with the pass = €33.25

The total savings value of this itinerary is €141.75. The 3-day pass costs €92.90, so total savings would be €48.85. With that said, you’ll still be shelling out some extra money for the wine tour and the trip to Cinque Terre since the pass simply nets you a discount on those tours.

So, what did we learn? You can see from looking at the daily totals that at €77.90, the 1-day pass is a bad deal. You’d have to cram a lot into a day to get €77.90 worth of attractions. I just don’t see it happening. The 2-day pass can save you a bit, but the 3-day pass is easily the best value.

Top Reasons to Get the Florence City Pass

Image of David statue in Florence

The Uffizi and the Accademia Gallery

Florence is home to more than 70 museums, but the Uffizi Gallery and the Accademia Gallery are the most renowned of the lot.

The Uffizi is a huge, grand collection of varying art styles ranging from the 12 th to 18 th centuries. Considered one of the best Renaissance collections in the world, it features masterpieces from Leonardo da Vinci, Caravaggio, Raphael, and more. You could easily spend a full day at the Uffizi and not see everything.

The Accademia Gallery is a much smaller collection with one very important draw: the iconic statue of David by Michelangelo. You can’t visit Florence and skip it.

These two museums are easily the biggest draws of the pass. At €29 and €16, respectively, reserved admission is somewhat expensive – but the pass covers it in full.

Fast-Track Entry

The Uffizi and the Accademia Gallery draw crowds of people from all over the world, especially in the summer. You know what that means – enormous lines.

I love museums, and there’s no way I’d skip the Uffizi or the Accademia Gallery, but I hate the idea of wasting precious vacation time in a ticket line.

One of the best features of the Florence City Pass is fast-track entry to those two flagship attractions. Your pass includes a timed entry, so you can skip the line.

Saving time is awesome, but most people buy sightseeing passes to save money. Granted, you’re not going to save a ton with the Florence City Pass, but if you’re smart about it, you may be able to shave off 30% (or more) of your costs.

If you’re in town for a few days, the 3-day pass is your best bet for maxing out value. That means more money to splurge on Italian food and wine (or whatever your priorities happen to be).

Other Benefits of the Florence City Pass

  • Welcome to Florence Walking Tour – Most the tours included on the Florence City Pass are discounted but not free. The exception is the Welcome to Florence Walking Tour, which is the first one I’d recommend, anyway. The guided tour is an hour, showing you the city’s most iconic sights while imparting their rich history. I love a good guided tour!
  • Day Trips – If you buy the three-day pass and are looking to branch out beyond Florence for a day, one of the day trips might fit the bill. For example, you’ll get a 35% discount on the Cinque Terre tour which translates into €33.25 in savings. It lasts almost 14 hours and includes visits to three charming villages and two boat rides.
  • Free Shuttle to Barberino Designer Outlet – If you were hoping to spend a couple of hours getting your shopping on, the Florence City Pass includes a shuttle ride to the Barberino Designer Outlet. Walking and public transit is the easiest way to get around Florence for most tourist attractions, but short of renting a car, the shuttle bus is probably the fastest way to get to the outlet. It’s also comfortable, with AC and Wifi.

Where the Pass Falls Short

Florence City Pass Review - picture of Pisa complex

The Florence City Pass from TurboPass can save you time and money while visiting Florence , and that’s a beautiful thing. Unfortunately, though, there are a couple of serious drawbacks you’ll want to consider.

Lack of Flexibility

The main one is the lack of flexibility. When you buy the pass, you have to specify its start date. That doesn’t seem like a big deal, but what if your trip is delayed ? Could you potentially lose a day of sightseeing?

TurboPass says a change of date is treated as a cancellation and subject to a €30 fee. Having to pay that fee would greatly diminish the value of the pass. In the case of the 1-day pass, it would make it impossible to get your money’s worth. So, unless you have travel insurance , you may be out the money. This is a major drawback relative to most other sightseeing passes that let you activate the pass when you get to your first destination.

And that isn’t the only issue with flexibility. Because the pass offers timed entry to Uffizi and the Accademia Gallery, you need to choose your dates and times when you book your pass. This reduces your ability to go with the flow once you’re in Florence. On the other hand, timed entry will save you from wasting valuable time in a ticket queue, so you need to weigh the pros and cons.

Limited Savings

Determining the value of the Florence City Pass isn’t a straightforward task. They list all the included attractions, but you have to click on each one to find out their regular admission cost.

When you do, you discover that some of them, like the Casa Martelli, are free to everyone, all the time! I’m not sure how TurboPass justifies listing that as an included attraction.

At other attractions, like the Salvatore Ferragamo Museum, the Florence City Pass gets you discounted, not free, admission. For all the tours other than the walking tour, you only get a discount, meaning you’ll still have to pay some costs out of pocket.

This isn’t to say the savings aren’t significant, but if you’re expecting your pass to cover all your costs, you’ll be disappointed.

In general, the Florence City pass doesn’t offer huge savings opportunities. I think most people’s savings would top out roughly 30%, which is less than most all-inclusive passes.

Who Should Consider the Florence City Pass?

First-time Visitors – Anyone visiting Florence for the first time will want to check out the major museums and maybe a couple of tours. If you plan carefully, the Florence City Pass can save you time and money.

Power Sightseers – To be honest, it isn’t all that easy to get great value from the Florence City Pass. The people who will are the ones excited about cramming a ton into a day.

Travelers Staying for at Least Three Days – As I mentioned before, the three-day pass is by far the best deal. People who will be in Florence for at least three days will benefit most from the pass.

Who Should Skip the Pass?

Anyone Who Doesn’t Want to Pay Anything Extra – The Florence City Pass offers a discount on five tours and two museums. If you want to do either, you’ll have to pay the balance out of pocket. If you were hoping to pay one set fee for the pass and then put your wallet away, you’re out of luck.

Travelers Not Interested in Museums – The bulk of the attractions on the Florence City Pass are museums, so if you’re not interested in visiting at least a couple, this is probably not the pass for you.

Travelers Who Like to Take it Slow – The Florence City Pass isn’t a good fit for someone who likes to sightsee at a relaxed pace or take breaks in between. If you want to get your money’s worth, you better be ready to hit the ground running.

Tips for Getting the Most Out of the Florence City Pass

  • Be Aware of Closures – It’s important to familiarize yourself with the attractions’ hours so you can plan your days accordingly. Most of the museums are closed on Mondays, so if you’ll be using your pass on a Monday, that’s a good time to do a day trip or two half-day tours. Additionally, the walking and bike tours only run once a day, so if either is on your agenda, you need to plan around that.
  • Skip the 1-Day Pass – I’ve done the math, and here’s my conclusion: Very few people will get their money’s worth from the 1-day Florence City Pass. The two biggest draws, the Accademia Gallery and Uffizi, only cost €45 on their own. You can get through the Accademia Gallery pretty fast, but the Uffizi is huge. To really appreciate it, you’re looking at a half-day. You wouldn’t have time to do a half-day tour, so the most you could reasonably do would be another museum (maximum cost = €10) or maybe the walking tour (€35). Either way, regular admission would be a maximum of about €80 – which means you’d likely lose money with the pass.
  • Choose the Expensive Attractions – If you take a look at what’s included on the Florence City Pass, many have low admission prices. You’re not going to save a ton of money by visiting a bunch of €8 museums. To get value, you need to make sure the regular prices add up to more than you paid for the pass. And to do that, you’ll have to go with some pricier options. The Accademia Gallery and Uffizi are givens, totaling €45. If you buy a 3-day pass, taking a day trip, a half-day tour, and visiting a few more museums should easily save you €45-€50+ per person.
  • Visit Three Attractions Per Day – If you want to save money with the Florence City Pass, you need to visit multiple attractions each day (except if you’re doing a day trip). Three is a good number to shoot for, although it’ll depend on your choices.

How to Buy the Florence City Pass

There’s only one good way to get the Florence City Pass, and you can buy it online here . You can pay with Visa or Mastercard, of course, but PayPal, wire transfer, and Sofort banking are options, as well.

Unlike most sightseeing passes, you have to select a start date when you buy the Florence City Pass. If you’ll be visiting the Uffizi and the Accademia Gallery, you also have to select the date and preferred time, since it’s a timed entry ticket.

Bottom Line: Is the Florence City Pass a Good Buy?

I’ll be frank: I don’t recommend the one-day Florence City Pass. Most people won’t get their money’s worth because there aren’t many high-value attractions to choose from.

Florence City Pass Review Pin - picture of Florence skyline in evening

With the two and three-day passes (especially the three-day), it’s easier to get some decent value. If you’re comfortable choosing your dates in advance, these versions of the Florence City Pass can save you some money. They can also save you time at two very busy attractions.

The savings you get with the Florence City Pass aren’t as impressive as what some passes for other cities offer, but if you ask me, a little extra money in your pocket is better than none.

Florence City Pass Review

  • Pass Options and Lengths
  • Fast Track Entry
  • Overall Value

The Florence City Pass can save you money at some of the city’s most iconic attractions. However, when compared to other all-inclusive passes around the globe, this pass lacks the type of savings you may be looking for. In fact, you should likely avoid the one-day pass altogether.

With that said, the pass does include fast track entry to two of the most popular sights in Florence – the Uffizi and Academia galleries. This can save you hours of valuable time by avoiding the ticket lines. When used appropriately, you can even save a few Euros on regular admission prices throughout the city.

The lack of flexibility, modest savings, and the fact that you have to choose your dates in advance may make this pass a “no go” for some visitors. On the other hand, it’s one of the few passes available in Florence. In our opinion, a little savings is always better than none.
