We spent a glorious day visiting the Pitti Palace, Boboli & Bardini gardens. The palace was spectacular - especially for its Art & exquisite ceilings. We enjoyed the costume & treasures museums too. We finished our day walking through the gardens with a final cocktail on the Bardini terrace overlooking the whole city of Florence.
We had a great experience. The Pa;ace was fascinating. Unfortunately we got causgt in a downpour while in the Boboli Gardens. Not the tours problem. Dodn't relize that we needed our iphone earbuds. Not clear in the instructions. No audio guide as a result.
There are no skip the line tickets. You have to go to the office to get your physical tickets anyway and then you have to wait in line.
The Palace is well worth seeing and I enjoyed the painting collection and the magnificence of many of the rooms decors.
Easy tickets check in. Took advantage of the luggage store inside the palace before departure from the city.
well-kept environments, friendly and knowledgeable staff

The museum visit was great. However, we had thought that the QR code was the actual ticket. So we had to go somewhere else from the entrance to the Uffizi to pick up the paper ticket. I actually wanted to avoid this, so I bought the tickets online beforehand. The office was difficult to find despite Google Maps. The Boboli Gardens are very run-down, overgrown and unkempt and not at all worth the entrance fee. A complete disappointment.

The burocracy surrounding getting a ticket for that Vasari corridor! Which turned out to contain no art works, the girls tasked with taking us looked bored to tears, told us nothing except what we were NOT allowed to do. The whole experience could have been completed in ten minutes rather than 45!

The architecture of Pitti Palace is a masterpiece of the Renaissance style, characterized by its grand scale, symmetry, and classical elements. Initially, the design, possibly by Filippo Brunelleschi but debated among historians, aimed to outshine the Medici's residence, reflecting Luca Pitti's ambition. The palace’s facade with its rusticated stone, arched windows and repetitive geometric patterns, gives it a fortress-like appearance.
After being acquired by the Medici family in 1549, the palace expanded under architect Bartolomeo Ammannati, who added the grand courtyard and created the Boboli Gardens. Rennovations in the late 16th and 17th centuries, introduced the Baroque interiors, in the form of rich frescoes, stucco, and elaborate ceiling paintings to the palace’s rooms. The Palatine Gallery, located on the first floor, is a prime example of this Baroque interior.
Today, the Pitti Palace, as a museum complex, showcases an evolving history of architectural styles from its original Renaissance core to the later Baroque and Neoclassical additions.
