Florence City Pass Review: Is It Worth It?

Quick answer: the Florence City Pass from Turbopass puts the Uffizi Gallery, the Accademia Gallery (Michelangelo’s David) and 20+ other museums, tours and extras on one QR code for 1–7 days. It’s a good fit if you want the two big galleries plus a few smaller sights. It does not list the Duomo, Pitti Palace or Boboli Gardens, so budget for those separately.

What is the Florence City Pass?

It’s a digital sightseeing pass sold by Turbopass, our official partner. You choose how many days you need (1 to 7) and how many travellers, and the pass arrives by email. You save it to your phone and show the QR code at each included attraction. Turbopass says it can save up to 40% compared with single tickets, depending on what you visit.

What’s included

Turbopass lists these as included (check the partner page for the latest list before you buy):

• Big galleries: Uffizi Gallery and Accademia Gallery (home of the David).
• Museums: Museo di San Marco, Museo de’ Medici, Museo Casa Buonarroti, Museo degli Innocenti, National Archaeological Museum, Opificio delle Pietre Dure, Leonardo Interactive Museum, Museo degli Strumenti Musicali, Museo Franco Zeffirelli, and the Synagogue and Jewish Museum of Florence.
• Churches: Orsanmichele.
• Getting around: a Florence city tour, a guided bike tour, bike rental and a shuttle bus to the Barberino Designer Outlet. A hop-on hop-off city tour is offered as an upgrade.
• Day trip to Siena: Siena Cathedral, Palazzo delle Papesse and the Siena Jewish Museum and Synagogue.

Turbopass also lists partner discounts, such as a Chianti wine tour, airport transfers, Radical Storage luggage storage and Palazzo Strozzi.

What’s not included

The Duomo (Florence Cathedral), Pitti Palace and Boboli Gardens are not on Turbopass’s included list. If they’re on your must-see list, plan separate tickets.

Who the pass suits

• Good fit: first-time visitors who want the Uffizi and the Accademia plus two or three smaller museums, a tour or the Siena day trip.
• Maybe not: a one-day stop where you’ll only see one gallery, or a trip built around the Duomo and Pitti Palace.

How to decide: list the sights you really want, add up their single-ticket prices on the official sites, and compare with today’s pass price for the same number of days.

How to use it

1. Choose your number of days and travellers on Turbopass.
2. Get the pass by email and save it to your phone.
3. Book the Uffizi and Accademia early — Turbopass warns they often sell out.
4. Show the QR code at each attraction.

Florence + Venice

City passes are per city, so a Florence and Venice trip needs two passes. See our Venice City Pass guide and the Venice + Florence itinerary in our journal.
