The Firenzecard was perfect for our stay in Florence March 18-28. My husband had a conference in Prato (he commuted by train). It was Spring Break in Colorado, USA so our adopted son (13) and I decided to join him. We planned to stay at Hotel David and visit as many cathedrals, museums and attractions as we could. The Firenzecard allowed our son to enter free when accompanied by a card holding adult. Be sure you list any dependents traveling with you when you sign up for the card. We followed the instructions online and had no problems entering several on the list of participating attractions. Yes, we did purchase Duomo complex separately and made reservations. All three of us toured the first three days. Then, we took a couple days break and did fun activities our teen selected ~like the Selfie Museum and Zipline Adventure Park IL Gigante. We added the free 48 hours extension. We went to fourteen places altogether. Our flight departure was delayed due to union strikes in Munich. We wish there had been an option to add two more days! We also took a half-day trip to Pisa by train. We had a wonderful vacation and loved staying at one location and getting to enjoy local restaurants and parks. We used the mobile Firenzecard with ease and didn’t have to wait in long lines. The app also has very nice brief descriptions about each place that our son liked to read aloud before we headed out. Open and closed days of the week and hours were also included.

The Firenze card has been a great deal and the app was easy to use and convenient. With the Firenze card, you skip the lines and show the app on your phone. We visited 19 places with our cards when we had originally planned on visiting 9 of those places. The app has a map and you can visit the Firenze card information center in Florence to pick up a paper map. The maps show every attraction the card works at and if you pass one, you can take a look inside. We had a great visit to Florence and I recommend the app and card.

Our group of friends purchased own Florence card and we visited over 10 museums in the course of 2 and half days. It’s really great option if you are a museum lover and wants to skip line sometimes. The line for Florence card holder always tends to be shorter but be sure to follow instruction to get reservation for some popular museums like Uffizi. For the app itself, I wish it could have some added features like bookmark favorite museums or museums to be visited, filter museums by opening hours, and the ability to plan museum visits in the app by creating visiting schedule. Since our group of friends loved museums and want to see all that’re interesting to us, we literally opened every single museum descriptions to get hours. We certainly have missed some great museums due to mistaking the hours we read earlier on the app.Overall, this is a great app to give you all the information you need. But a little bit more feature would be so helpful!

The card is easy to use and was so worth the money. In many cases, it meant I didn’t have to stand in a line for a ticket and it is universally recognized. The app is very well designed and shows all the museums available with lots of information, including open days and hours. The ability to extend for another 48 hours is also a big plus, if you are staying longer than 3 days. I highly recommend this card when you are visiting Florence!
