Day Trips From Florence

Unfortunately this wasn't the tour we did as the company changed us onto another tour. The bus was comfortable and the little town of Greve in Chianti which we stopped in was very charming. I bought a gorgeous ring at the jewelers, my Italian ring which will remind me constantly of th wonderful holiday. The dinner was in the vineyard, the sun was a bit bright for some at the table. The food was amazing and the wines paired beautifully.

We loved this day trip, our guides, Marco and Patricia, we superb, Marco was the lead guide and was enthusiastic and well informed about the history of the region. Pisa was fabulous, the wine tasting- fantastic, Seinna and San Gimignano were beautiful places to visit.10/10 for this day trip

Supervisors Martha and Julio provided perfect guidance. Clear in information and always approachable. TOP With a wine company, we expected a winery in the countryside. This was a factory site. So ambience was a bit less, despite the enthusiastic employee of the winery. Nice and enthusiastic. Despite the severe thunderstorm in Siena we had a nice day.

We loved the three beautiful cities we visited, including the crown of Tuscany which wasn't on the itinerary. Paying to walk on the city walls was interesting and views were good, but we were on metal bridges, not the actual walls. There are two different access points so be sure to try both. Lunch was at a restaurant with a very small vineyard where we could walk and take photos. The tastings were all good but primarily a sales pitch. The pasta lunch was just ok. If you take the cathedral tour in Siena (recommended but additional cost) make sure you know how to get back to the meeting point!

Our guide Anastasia was very interesting, and made it easy for us to get useful information about schedules and meeting points. Our driver Cosimon was top-notch on the road. We kept to the timetable without stress: very well organized and a comfortable bus that allowed us to catch up between sites: a superb visit!

If you have the time for a day trip from Florence - please do consider this.. Italy is awesome and we are so glad we did this trip as it was a great insights to the costal towns of Italy in this region. The tour is very well paced.. Yes you get up early.. but then you can catch up the nap on your bus journey which is very comfortable. Our guide was just awesome ensuring that we have a clear view of how the day is going to look like.. and she helped us with all the onboarding and offboarding of the trains.. its a super fun activity as you visit great small towns.. use all the modes of transport except flight and there is help all along the way. Very professional.. very dependable.. This tour has been the highlight among all the day trips we took.. Cant recommend enough!!
