Tuscany in a Day Tour from Florence

Noemi was our tour guide!

This is an exceptional day trip. Noemi is a wonderful tour guide, very patient, very clear and a lot of fun! This is a very long day and she put in a great effort, talking to everyone right up until the last minute, answering questions and helping with directions, especially at the drop off point late in the evening. as far as the tour goes, everything is worthwhile and the Vineyard lunch completely exceeded our expectations. The staff offered extra food several times so you will not be hungry when you leave. They were also very generous with the wine, basically unlimited. One big negative of most of the tours that we’ve taken so far in Italy, is that they do not provide adequate bathrooms. There is no bathroom on the bus. Every stop we made during the day had to be planned around managing finding a bathroom and getting to the meeting point on time to respect the timeline of the group. There are very few public washrooms so I suggest you always choose a place where you can purchase a coffee or water and make sure they have a bathroom for you to use.

Giancarlo is the best!

The tour that my party had experienced was phenomenal. Even during the scorching heat, our wonderful tour guide, Giancarlo, did everything in his power to alleviate the nuisances that follow the high temperatures, therefore allowing our tour to be very joyful. In regards to the tour itself, there was no chance that we would have visited the sites included had we not purchased this tour from TheTourGuy. TheTourGuy had the entire schedule planned out, allowing for an easy trip through Tuscany and all the sites included. Giancarlo also provided us with recommendations for food, shopping, and gelato whenever we had free time throughout the sites.

Tuscany in a Day Tour from Florence

We had a fantastic day! Gabriel, from WalkAbout Tours, was an amazing guide--informative, fun, personable. (And shout out to Danelo, our bus driver). We felt well-taken care of. We loved everything we were able to see and do in a day! Siena was amazing! Tuscan lunch at the farm was delicious, San Gimignano was very cool, and we loved seeing Pisa. Would recommend to all!

Tuscan Delight

We booked this tour to see more of the Tuscany region outside of Florence. Our guide Manolo was fantastic! He gave us history lessons and was funny and charismatic at the same time. We had a large group of 50 people and he didn’t lose anyone. The best part was the wine/farm that he took us to for lunch. I would book this tour again just for that experience. It was very beautiful and the food and wine was absolutely delicious. It is a long tour but worth every penny.

A great way to see Tuscany!

Tony, the guide with WalkAbout, made our day incredibly special. He was funny and so knowledgeable! Our driver, Pepe, was amazing...

Tuscany in A Day Tour

Davide, our tour guide, was very organized and informative. He kept the large group moving and on time, in spite of the bad weather we incurred throughout the entire day. I would not recommend this tour for a family with small children, it was a very long day. I would recommend changing up the tour and removing the trip to Pisa - instead, allow more time in Siena, a longer tour at the Winery (to see the operation side of the business) and more time in San Gimignano.

Great time.

We enjoyed our day in Tuscany with Mirella. She was well educated about the area and very happy and friendly. She tried to help us to think positive about the rainy day and it worked, the rain passed over. She was very accommodating as well. The tour was informative and enjoyable. The food for lunch was tasty., but not over the top. There was plenty of everything except salad. They brought 2nds on everything but didn’t refill the salad bowl and it was empty by the time it got to me. A couple of suggestions: I think an adult only option would be a good thing. Most of the people on our tour had raised their kids. While the 2 children in our group were not “bad” they were still noisy children and Babies cry. That’s what they do. Fortunately I didn’t have to sit right next to them. While I enjoyed each town, I feel like most people thought the day was a bit too long and that lunch was rushed. I think 2 towns and a vineyard would be plenty or maybe even 2 towns and another close by vineyard that didn’t require much time to drive to. Another suggestion is for the vineyard providing lunch and wine. It would have been good to have been served the wine. Some tables left large amounts in bottles and some people would have definitely drank another glass. All in all it was a fun trip.

Had a great time. Tour included wonderful locations across Tuscany. Definitely worth visiting. Ludo is an amazing guide!
