BEWARE - this vendor is non-refundable. We had to cancel our trip and they have no compassion. It is all about the $$

Excellent tour and guide Giuliano. We highly recommend! Our trip was changed from bus to train, they informed us in a timely manner and with clear instructions where to meet.

Excellent trip, issues on the day relating to flooding in Italy which was out of the control of the company which meant train instead of coach but they adapted very well with excellent communication. Highly recommend

With my stomach full of carbonara and typical desserts, I can say that this was maybe the best tour I´ve ever taken! Can´t describe with words all the beautiful places we´ve visited. Each one surpassed the previous one. When I´ve come back, my friends asked me my favorite place and I can´t tell one! For sure, I´ve recommended it to them! They can´t wait!

Rubsthedriver

I was mistaken! I thought that choosing a bilingual tour was a bad idea, but I could barely notice it! The way the guide explained the city, was masterfully. Loved everything!

Fresisux

No me gusta comparar las ciudades que visito, pero pensaba que ninguna podría superar a Florencia, pero tras haber estado en Florencia, entra en mi top 3 de ciudades más bonitas de todo el mundo! Un tour súper bien organizado, con los tiempos justos para que no sea cansado (al final son bastantes horas) y conozcas lo más importante de la ciudad :)
