What are people saying about Florence

Ayse_E, May 2026

Beautiful views

Our tour guide Joanne was wonderful. She was very knowledgeable and friendly. She also saved the day when our bus didn’t arrive due to traffic congestion. We went to the most beautiful one of the villages first, and took hikes there (Vernazza). Spent great time. Then we did two more villages and Pisa. It was a full day spent well. Highly recommend.

Half-Day Excursion to Pisa and the Leaning Tower from Florence

Shannon_W, May 2026

Terrific Guide

Our guide was funny and knowledgeable! Take your headphones or a book for the drive both ways, and know that you will have limited time after the tour to see the surrounding area. Also know that you cannot have any sized bag if you want to climb the tower, and there is no where to store your items. Those on our tour who climbed the tower did not think it was a worthwhile addition to the experience.

Michal_H, May 2026

Highly recommend!

This tour was with a fairly large group, but it didn’t affect our experience at all. The guides managed the group very well, gave everyone enough time at each location, and shared a lot of interesting information throughout the day. We got a wonderful taste of Tuscany, and the vineyard tastings were excellent. Overall, it was an amazing day and a great experience that we would definitely recommend.

Half day Chianti Vineyard Escape from Florence with Wine Tastings

AngelaHelen_M, May 2026

Drink, enjoy, learn, sleep

Wonderful to see the beautiful Tuscan countryside. The Vineyards were picturesque, informative and the vineyard staff were both knowledgeable and entertaining. We are now fans of Chianti and will always look out for the black cockerel. Drinking wine at 10am did mean we needed a fiesta, so, do not plan anything too physical in the afternoon.

Skip the line with Viator at the Florence Academy of Art

My husband and I visited the Academy of Art in Florence, Italy in a group tour. Our guide Martina did a wonderful job and kept us interested and entertained. I recommend her and this tour, especially because it allows the group to skip the line and have a great view of the artwork.

Stephen_C, Apr 2026

Long day but well worth the time; highly recommended for those with the stamina to partake of the experiences.

CHIARA was a wonderful tour guide, providing a lot of information about all the places we visited and keeping up a cheerful demeanor throughout. It was a revelation to learn about the villages we visited and the points of interest along the way. Though the tour is a long one, the time passed more quickly than we realized because of all the new sights and information we experienced.

Uffizi Gallery Small Group Tour with Guide

jeffery_h, Apr 2026

A semester of knowledge in 2 hours for art students

Our 1:00 pm 26 April Uffizi tour was simply outstanding, thanks to an exceptional guide whose passion and presence immediately set her apart. From the moment we began, it was clear we were in the hands of someone truly special. Her knowledge of Leonardo da Vinci and Raphael—especially their masterful use of color—was extraordinary, delivering insights that felt equal to a full semester of art study. Having grown up in Florence, she brought a depth and authenticity few guides possess. Quite frankly, whatever she is being paid is not enough—she deserves a raise.

Siena, San Gimignano and Chianti Wines Day Tour from Florence

Amy_K, Mar 2026

Great trip!

Excellent experience.... loved this day trip! San Gimignano was my favorite and would have loved more time there. Also...take the umbrella or poncho... you never know when they'll be a downpour on a 0% chance rain day. 😂 You ARE allowed to leave things on the bus, so you won't have to carry them around every stop.
