A jewel in Florence!Dont miss this place. Its a nice break from the crowds and museums. The palace is every bit as ornate in art as the Vatican in Rome. This is a quiet, peaceful oasis with rich history and beautiful gardens!1 of 1 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALL

The palace is great, the gardens could be betterThe palace/museum is one of the best in Florence! The gardens I thought were a little run down, and for the 8 euro per person charge, i expected it to look more like the "jardin du luxembourg" in Paris, which is beautiful and free..... I actually think that Central Park in NYC is a lot nicer than the boboli gardens.

so soWas there summer 2001. Maybe it's improved since. We thought the place was run down- not much going on- you "got" the general idea of what the gardens were like when planned- but flower beds were overgrown, fountains were green with algae- not much going on horticuluturally. Is that a word?0 of 3 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALL

Beautiful, Beautiful!!Last spring I visited my sister in Florence and Boboli Gardens was absolutely beautiful. After walking around for awhile, we just sat in the grass and had the most beautiful view. It was amazing to see everything inside and equally amazing to just sit and stare.You did not find this review helpful.1 of 2 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALLAtmosphereValue

Most beautiful garden ever!My husband and I went to the gardens as an after thought after trying to get into the art galleries and museums (all of which had extremely long lines), but what a surprise! We had the most relaxing time enjoying the beautiful gardens. The water fountains and the gardens were very beautiful and view of Florence was amazing. We highly recommend spending a couple of hours checking it out.You have found this review helpful.3 of 3 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALLAtmosphereValue

Absolutely gorgeous!The Boboli Gardens were the first place we went in Florence. The view from the top levels of the garden is amazing. Make sure you leave plenty of time to wander through the gardens as there is something to discover in every nook and cranny. Also, I would recommend seeing the Gardens early in the day and then taking a break. There is a lot of stairs and uphill climbs that are likely to wear you out. Definitely worth the time and energy!!You have found this review helpful.11 of 12 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALLAtmosphereValue
