Fabulous trip out with our wonderful tour guide and driver Valerie. There were 8 of us altogether on the trip which was a nice amount of people. Valerie was knowledgeable (local girl), chatty, friendly and enthusiastic. Valerie made sure that we were aware of the main streets/ buildings/wine/cheeses of interest. We booked through our hotel but most of our fellow travellers had already booked online before arriving in Italy. Would highly recommend.

We had stayed in Viareggio a couple Of times & had wanted to visit San Gimignano & Siena for a while but it seemed tricky to get there using public transport so decided to take the plunge with a tour. The hotel recommended this company & although they usually start from Lucca they agreed to collect us from our hotel in viareggo. Valeria was our guide & she had an excellent knowledge of the areas and really made it so interesting. We particularity enjoyed the wine tasting. There was enough time in the 2 towns to have a look around & climb some towers too. Would highly recommend this company. Valeria was absolutely fantastic
