A day in Siena, Tuscany and Pisa - The places I met today were spectacular, full of history and beauty. The design of your excursions allows you to know in a short time, places that individually would be difficult to know. Thank you for your willingness and professionalism

Beautiful landscapes and cities. It's worth it. Claudia is guided by a genius. - Full tour, fascinating cities, great guide. The only thing to get better is that the air conditioning on the bus wasn't working, and one of my daughters broke down from the heat.

Tuscany highlights in 1 day. - A very long day packed with Tuscany highlights. Expect this day tour to last 12.5 hours. Even in October it was extremely crowded with an awful lot of tourists. If you can ignore that then this is the tour for you.

Too rushed tour. Sienna,San G and Pisa... - Too rushed, need to download tickets to see you need to be there 20 minutes early. Most people would see bar code under bookings and stop need to just change time to start earlier. Tour guide John did a great job otherwise the 38 people would have been too much to even enjoy. Just add train in Pisa as a standard so you don't have to add paying for cash after the fact.

Don’t Waste Your Time Or Money - This was an actively bad tour that I would not recommended to anyone. If your goal is to check off as many boxes to say that you “saw something” or “went somewhere” then this is the right tour. But if you want to actually be able to enjoy the Tuscany wine country then don’t waste your time booking this. First of all, get there early or they will literally leave without you. They pack way too many people on this trip. The bus is full of sick people coughing too so come prepared for that. It’s a very busy day and they won’t hesitate to leave you behind at any of the stops. I think if you really want the Tuscany experience, you should just spend a few days in a nice hotel in the countryside and take a car around Tuscany visiting the different sights. This tour doesn’t give you the real feel of a Tuscany trip. It just feels like you’re being rushed around and getting a very inauthentic experience. The first stop in Siena is okay. We got a tour guide specifically for Siena but she was kind of rude and boring. The church we visited was beautiful though. Prettier than St Peters in Rome to be honest. Siena is a cute city but not enough to go out of the way for. The second stop at the winery sucks. The food is very bad. The tour makes it seem like they’re giving you all this good food but it’s really just some mediocre sides. Not filling at all and worse than what I’d get at Olive Garden. The winery people were nice but they were clearly just trying to sell us stuff. And the winery isn’t particularly nice. No cute photo areas. Doesn’t feel like real Tuscany at all. Honestly I’m convinced this tour is just a scam for tourists. But I guess the balsamic was really good. The third stop at San Gimignano is okay. The town is really cute but you don’t have much time to explore. You don’t even have enough time to eat either. A 12 hour trip from 8 am to 8 pm with only one mediocre meal? Not sure what that is about but it was really disappointing. The last stop at Pisa is actually really nice. This is the only reason I’m giving this 2/5 instead of 1/5. But if you’re staying in Florence you should just take the train to Pisa. It’s great for a few hours but overall not worth it for this long trip. Lastly, I will say that our guide was perfectly nice and informative when it came to stuff. But she definitely didn’t make up for how bad the tour was. Beyond frustrated that we wasted our time and money on this when we could have been enjoying the local good food and vibes in Florence. Do not waste your time or money on this tour like we did.
