We enjoyed our experience touring La accademia to see our buddy, David. The instructions on where to pick up our tickets and where to get in line were very clear & the officially running the gallery had it down to a well oiled operation. Crowded, but not unbearably so, unlike the Vatican museums.

Exchanging the voucher for our tickets was easy and the queue to get in was well organised and the wait not too long. Once inside the experience was wonderful with so many art works to study as well as David. Although there were a lot of people inside there was plenty of space to see everything and to take your time. The statue of David was amazing and stiff were very helpful and knowledgeable.

It was slightly chaotic but I believe it’s because they’d been closed the morning for a union meeting meaning all the earlier bookings were late. Lots of angry people floating about. But we did manage to get in the queue 5 minutes after our allotted time. I would hope a regular day would be less stressful.
