We will be in Florence in the last week of March, and it is not the peak of the traveling season. I know Florence is always crowded, but wondering if at that tie if the year it would be safer to get ticket to the Santa Croce before traveling, or if we should risk to get when we arrive there.

Hi, I think you will be fine buying tickets on the day but if you want to go into the Duomo, I recommend buying tickets in advance, when we were there there were no tickets available for 4 days, so we couldn’t go inside, so if that’s on your list of ‘must do’ then get your tickets in advance.
How strict are the entrance times if you have pre-purchased a ticket? I see that the entrance times are every 30 minutes...does that mean you can show up any time within a 30 minute window? Or do they expect you exactly at the time of your ticket? Thanks in advance!

Within the last 3 years I’ve been there twice. Once in October and yesterday. Although, you can always get a ticket there, expect a sizable line, 20 minutes during shoulder seasons. If you are going in high season, summer, get the ticket ahead of time. Save all the time you can in Florence.
