The whole trip was amazing even though it started to rain and made no difference. Everything was still beautiful. We did think the first stop was unnecessary. The town really didn’t have anything to offer. We would have rather of spent more time in actual Tuscany. Our tour guide was friendly, knowledgeable and a lot of fun.

Lorenzo is an outstanding tour guide. He made the tour fun, interesting and memorable. Don’t miss the opportunity of seeing Siena, San Gimignano and enjoying a delicious wine tasting experience. Outstanding!

Best guide. Went to some great locations. The bus ride is 1 hour each way so just know this but still had an amazing time. The ride on the way back is nothing 😛

Had a great day with Dom, who had a great balance of casual conversion and knowledge. It truly felt like we had close family taking us around the country and had a great balance of 'explore' time and guided time. Tour was much more than I expected with a full wine tasting and several stops along the way. Would definitely recommend to others, great full day to get outside of the touristy Florence!

Enjoyed the whole experience, our van driver did a good job getting us from place to place. She was friendly, knowledgeable and fun. We loved the places we visited and were happy not to get there on our own. The only negative was the van had a rough ride, seemed like it needed new shocks and there were no handles to hold onto. The driver did a good job navigating the streets. Doing this tour including the wine tasting made the day easier rather than doing on our own.

I took the Tuscany experience tour with my spouse and his parents in mid June. The destinations were good but the overall experience felt amateur and like the company name says, on a budget. The tour description mentions a comfortable air conditioned van but the van we were in was nowhere near comfortable. It was a 95 degree day and we were all dripping in sweat the entire day. The van air conditioning couldn’t even be felt in the first passenger row and there were no vents other than those that blow on the driver and front seat passenger. The third row of the van was more miserable than the first because they didn’t even get the breeze when windows were opened. The discomfort from being so hot overshadowed the enjoyment of seeing Siena, San G, and wine tasting. It was also incredibly hot sitting outside (though in the shade) at the winery.

Very rushed on the day, but got us where we needed to be! Late start, and didn’t allow us to catch our breath and free time cut down, Alisha was a brilliant host and knew a lot and was a good host

The day trip from Rome to Tuscany to visit three small towns and a vine yard was brilliant, and Elisabetta and Rebecca were fabulous guides! They were not only knowledgeable about the places we visited but were able to share some personal stories about the area which enriched our experience. They were patient and professional, and a lot of fun to spend time with. We were heading to Venice next and Elisabetta was kind enough to provide us with some useful travel tips. We have been on many tours over the years and this one ranks at the top. I would highly recommend to anyone wanting to get a true flavour of the Tuscany countryside in a day. Thank you for a wonderful day!
