This is walkway from the Uffzi to Ponte Vecchio and Pettit Palace. It follows the river with the Medici Gallery on the side. The Gallery was under construction so we couldn't take it. The walk was beautiful with many shops along its sides. The buidling along the river and very old with many being in families for generations

This corridor was designed to allow the Medici to get from Palazzo Vecchio, the official government seat, to the Palazzo Pitti on the other side of the Arno, unseen. It was also an escape route in case political strife erupted! It runs along the Arno within the Uffizi, and then above the Ponte Vecchio shops to the Pitti Palace. It’s not worth paying extra to see a hallway when it can be admired externally for free.

The corridor is located beside the Ponte Vecchio the famous bridge in Florence. Worth to check it out and a nice place to enjoy River Arno for a quick stop.

Please be aware that the Vasari Corridor that you are paying for is NOT a walk through the corridor but rather a meander outside which you could see yourself with a tiny bit of research. We met a guide at the appointed time and started to walk through the square but when we queried when we were going through the corridor we were informed that the actual corridor was closed for renovation work until 2020! One couple on the tour immediately left and although we continued on felt that we had been sold something that we were not actually being able to experience. This so called Vasari Corridor experience is l feel being sold under false pretences so beware.

The elevated closed passage, designed by Giorgio Vasari in the 16th century, connects the Palazzo Vecchio and Palazzo Pitti. It was built to enable the Duke Cosimo I to walk from his home to the office without a contact with the public. It is an almost kilometer long passageway, with an extraordinary collection of paintings inside.

Do yourself and your family a favor and get off the usual tourist paths in Florence! Include tours of the Palazzo Vecchio Secret Rooms and, especially interesting, The Vasari Corridor which takes you from the Palazzo Vecchio to the Pitti Palace. The walls covered in portraits along the entire route. Only a limited number of visitors are permitted inside the Corridor at any given time, so you must make advance arrangements. Worth doing!

This was mentioned in our guided tour as the building they joined together by way of the walkway built between the two buildings. This was part of the overall tour guide experience.

Hi
I am really interested in doing the Palazzo Vecchio Secret rooms and the varsari corridor but I can't find any tours that actually let you walk through it. I know that it had been closed for renovations but can you tell me what tour company does this

Is the Vasari Corridor open again? I have read reviews that it is closed or renovation and only the external walkway is accessible now.

Ciao Stefania! Sapresti indicarmi un'agenzia buona e che non costi un occhio della testa per visitare il Corridoio? Sai qual è quella che ti fa percorrere il tratto più lungo ed interessante? Ho visto su internet che alcune agenzie propongono solo brevi visite in tratti ben limitati. Grazie!

A lot of websites still report that the Corridoio Vasariano is closed. I'm visiting at the start of July and am wondering if it is possible to walk down the entire 1km length of the corridor?
Apparently tickets need to be arranged in advance and I can't find out how to do this. Can anyone help?
Many thanks in advance,
Pete.

Hi there, I'm going to visit Florence in November, and am trying to figure out if the Corridoio is open or not - I can see that the section connection Palazzo Vecchio to the Uffizi is open, but would like to find out if it's possible to go all the way to Palazzo Pitti or the Boboli Gardens?
Thanks so much!

If you go to the Uffiz web site and type in - the vasari corridor - you will get the official information on what is open.
