Top Tuscany Bus Tours - page 46

Excellent experience. We enjoyed our guide- she was friendly and knowledgable (Chiara/Claire). The bus was on time and picked us up where the cruise shuttle drops off in Livorno. After the excursion they dropped us back at the port. We had four full hours in Florence with a relatively central drop-off location (only 8 minutes from the market). She also gave us a great map highlighting a walking path and sites to see within our time there.

This a quick tour of several pertinent Italian cities and the beautiful Tuscan Chianti farm country. The itinerary was Pisa, Chianti Tuscan vineyard (lunch), San Gimignano and Siena. Many facts and cultural stories were told. Our tour guide, Grace was extremely gracious and informative. This tour started at 8am, ending at 7pm. and was packed with information. Highly recommended.

Our tour guide was so kind. She spent extra time with the younger kids on the tour. She was incredibly accommodating. Some of the other guests were running late and she was nice enough to allow them time to meet us. She went out of her way to make sure we were taken care of.

Great experience in Pisa! The tour leader, Alessandra, told us a little about the countryside and Pisa on the way there. Our guide was very knowledgeable and the duomo was interesting and very beautiful. We climbed to the very top of the leaving tower and it was easier than I thought. Took less than 10 minutes and they do a good job of making sure it’s not too crowded. It was breezy inside and you could feel the lean a bit. The stairs are worn and a little slippery on the way down so give yourself time. We had some time to get gelato and wander a little.

Ivano was the best tour guide!!! We have done multiple guided museum tours, and Ivano has been the best by far. He was super kind, funny, and knowledgeable. The Accademia is a must do in Florence - seeing David was an experience I’ll never forget, and the background knowledge that Ivano provided really enhanced the experience.

Juliano was our lovely and linguistically talented tour guide, along with two other lovely and also linguistically talented women who took care of two other groups that were with us. Each town was a site to see and experience, we loved every moment. We started our day meeting inside the Firenze Train Station Santa Maria Novella by the site seeing booth ~ this is an experience my husband and I will hold dear to our hearts forever.

This was a cruise shore excursion. Meet up in Livorno was well organized and easy. Small group on nice bus. Pisa and Lucca are not far from Livorno so travel time was pleasantly limited on this outing. Pisa was so beautiful, much better than I expected...a Tourist spot yes, but so worth it! Doesnt need a long visit if you just want to walk the area. This tour is too short for climbing the Tower, FYI. Lucca was a wonderful , unique town. Walk the wall and relax! George, our guide had lots of helpful advice for this "self guided tour", provided very good walking maps, and excellent communication for our meet ups. But actually guided us quite a bit sharing a lot of knowledge about both towns! This was one of the best value tours I've taken and also a more laid back one!

This was a delightful little 1-hour small boat tour that we took down the Arno, about 30 mins up, with lively discussion about the historical buildings along both sides, and 30 mins back after turning around. Our young guide was very informative and kind, and those who wanted it were served chilled white wine along the way and offered umbrellas for the sun if desired (we didn't need it). Breezy and sunny, the weather was just perfect, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time on the boat and afterward our guide was on hand to offer transportation and other tips for around the city that we asked him. The meeting and ending point was a small tour office near Ponte alle Grazie that was slightly difficult to find, but allow yourself a few extra minutes to find it, and eventually other tour participants showed up (also a bit unsure) and we knew we were in the right place. Then our guide came out on time and greeted us and walked us a few feet down to the boat dock. Couldn't have been happier!
