12 hr day. Incredibly well planned day.

Be certain to arrive a bit earlier to be able to sit near front of bus (if that matters to you). The line does queue up early.

We hit several cities. Everything was exactly as advertised. Completely organized. Headphones with radio sets provided for touring some places. You might want to use your own if you have a set.

Elisa, our all day guide, was ever patient and full of information. We also had a wonderful local guide, Kathleen, in Sienna.

Lots of time to rest between cities on bus. Still, a 12 hour day.

This is not for folks who cannot walk a distance or climb stairs (on/off bus). We walked over 6.7 miles during the day despite our time on the bus. Bus AC/heat was comfortably set.

Approximately 50+ person capacity on bus which was full. That’s a lot of people. But managed quite well by our guide.

Note: Bus does not have power outlets or WiFi. Water available for purchase)

I was very impressed with the great job Alessandro did and appreciated the thorough tour we had with Roberta. The only thing I did not like was being left at the bus station after dark. It was not the easiest thing to get from the bus station to the train station, which was the central place where we met in the morning.

Elisa was the best tour guide i’ve ever had of any tour i’ve ever been to. She made sure everyone was comfortable with the walking pace. Lunch at the winery was amazing. San Gimignano was the best stop, a beautiful scenery, good shops and good atmosphere. Siena was also pretty good. Pisa was my least favorite, I feel like the time there should’ve been less because all you really do is take a picture with the tour and then visit the basilica. Overall the best tour, the best guide and honestly one of the most beautiful scenery in the world. Thank you Elisa and Fabio. Make sure to make this tour when you’re in Florence.
