Review of a full-day Tuscany tour from Florence, visiting Siena, San Gimignano, Pisa, and a Chianti winery lunch.
“We had so much fun! Alex and Sergio were amazing. The fun facts throughout the tour from Alex were informative. I fell in love with Italy even more than I already have. Definitely recommend this tour.”
See Pisa, Siena, and San Gimignano in one long Tuscan day, with a Chianti winery lunch, wine tasting, and optional English tours.
“This trip is a great value. So much so that I was concerned it couldn’t possible meet the expectation. However, the day was fantastic. Our guide Val was so informative and funny and helpful! The bus was so clean and so comfortable. You can leave your belongings on the bus, so bringing an umbrella or extra layers just in case weather changes was perfectly fine. We did not know ahead of time, but there is no eating or drinking on the bus and we did have plans for that, however, not a big deal. Each spot was so fun and so informative, and overall the day covered so much ground.…”

“Fabulous tour with guide Simone and Roberto. This was the best part of our trip. Thankful to see Pisa, Siena and San Gemignano was spectacular and the wine tasting with luncheon was very memorable.”
Cook a four-course Tuscan lunch, shop Florence’s market, taste Chianti, and learn fresh pasta at a farmhouse in the hills.
“I've given an average review as unfortunately our tour had far too many people on it to fully enjoy or take in the experience with nearly 30 people on ours it was like herding cats. Other groups were a lot smaller than ours and were all actively taking part. We couldn't all get involved really to make the most of it other than when we made terimasui for ourselves due to numbers and couldn't see much of what was going on in the main kitchen and the market was difficult with so many of us to hear or see Luca. Luca and his co host were absolutely brilliant though, highly…”

Explore San Gimignano, Siena, Monteriggioni, and Chianti from Florence with a winery lunch, three wines, and free time.
“Guide Alejandra was knowledgeable and give us the information in English and Spanish. The three medieval towns were charming and worth visiting as well as the family owned winery and olive oil producers. The Tuscan meal was simple (typical) and good. The family vineyard owners were charming and friendly so we had a lovely time. Their gift shop was good and we were lucky to have just been able to buy the new production of extra virgin olive oils for 2025 which were available just this week!!! Their dessert wine was delicious so we bought a bottle. All in all it was a fun experience. We did have an issue…”

Review of Florence’s Tuscany day trip to San Gimignano, Siena, Monteriggioni, and a Chianti winery lunch with three wine tastings.
“Fantastic Day Trip! We had a wonderful experience on this tour. Guides, Marta and Stella, were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and organised. They made sure everyone was comfortable and informed throughout the day. Our driver, Elis, was professional and smooth—navigating the scenic Tuscan roads with ease. This tour is a great value for the price and perfect for travelers looking for a stress-free way to visit iconic locations in Tuscany. Highly recommend!”
See Michelangelo’s David and Renaissance masterpieces at Florence’s Accademia and Uffizi with reserved entry, guides, and optional lunch.
“The museum tours were fun and mostly informative—to be honest we couldn’t hear much of what our guide was saying during the Accademia tour. I’d recommend having them use mics in the future! At Uffizi we were the only ones and our tour guide was as entertaining as he was knowledgeable.”

Ride a Vespa through Chianti from Florence, stopping for Tuscan views, winery visits, wine, olive oil, and a traditional lunch.
“We had such a great time even though I was not able to ride the Vespa, the guides were so patiently trying to teach me and I just couldn’t figure it out. Riding double was great also. Great information and sites. The lunch was amazing, a capris salad and risotto. The wine tasting was so good we left with a bottle of great wine. Thank you for a wonderful experience.”
Spend a full day in Chianti with three winery visits, Tuscan lunch, generous tastings, Greve village, and scenic transport from Florence.
“The wine tour for each winery was different- some explained a lot, some did not. The food at our second winery was good. The last one we reused our wine glass 3 times for each tasting and did not have a good food pairing. Daniele and Irene were fantastic! We started around 9am and were done by 5pm.”

“The tour was amazing! The tour guides Marco, Raffi and Michelle were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. They went out of their way to make sure everyone was enjoying themselves. They even went over and able their job to help us after my husband dislocated his shoulder in Pisa. They were compassionate patient and helpful. Thank you so much for caring and helping us get to the hospital!”
Review of Florence’s Accademia, Uffizi, city sights, and Tuscan lunch tour, with honest advice on value, pacing, guides, and logistics.
“Out of the 8 tours we did in Italy, this was by far our least favorite. Not necessarily because it's a bad tour---it just wasn't for us. The day was very cold and many of the stops we did could have been done on our own or with a cheaper tour. The skip the line portion is definitely worth it but our tour guides switched about 3 times and was done in multiple languages we understand demand, this just was not ideal compared to other tours we had taken. Through the Accademia gallery, it was honestly hard to stay in tune with the guide we got because she did not…”
