Anna was amazing! She took time to give us the background of Michelangelo before entering the main exhibit. Anna provided the details you wouldn’t find in history books. We learned who Michelangelo was as person, as well as why he was obsessed with perfection as an artist. She personalized the tour to learn about us, too. In the end, we felt like we’d made a Florentine friend. Thank you for such an amazing experience! John & Lori A.

Allasandro took us all over the city, showed us the history of the Medici family and its affect on the history of Florence. He showed us the most ancient pharmacy in the city which was stunning. He took us to local market that sold fine Italian products we could buy. He took us to a local market and showed us the history of the market and the merchants that worked there. He fed us at a local corner trying out local food that normally we would never think of trying but it was DELICIOUS. He brought us bread from a local market to try that was FANTASTIC, and gave my daughter a gift for her birthday. We couldn’t have asked for more!

This will be a memory that lasts a lifetime! Do not hesitate to book this private 10 hour tour of beautiful Tuscany & Pisa! Diego was outstanding and went out of his way to show us so much more than we expected. He was patient, kind, accommodating, and incredibly knowledgeable. His passion for his job and love for his country truly shine through in everything he does. This tour exceeded our expectations in every way, and we are so grateful for this unforgettable experience.

This tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Italy. Sienna and San Gimignano were just beautiful, each with their own unique charm and stunning scenery, giving us a wonderful taste of the region. Our driver, Marco, was fantastic. He was so relaxed, friendly and great to chat with throughout the day. It was an absolute pleasure to spend the day with him. He went above and beyond to arrange a lunch reservation at a truly magical spot after explaining that the restaurant I had originally requested would reduce our sightseeing time due to its location. His local knowledge and thoughtful recommendations made the entire experience even more special. The winery for lunch was absolutely incredible—the scenery was straight out of a movie. The setting, the food and wine and the atmosphere exceeded all of our expectations. This was the perfect way to see some of the region. It was an experience we will always remember. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tuscany. Thank you Marco for such a special day!

We enjoyed our day in Tuscany. Alex, our driver, was on time, friendly, knowledgeable and made the experience to our liking. We went first to the Michelangelo plaza, across the river, where we had not been yet for a great view of Florence. We chose not to go to Pisa, for more time in the Chianti area and wine tasting. We drove to Monteriggiani, a small walled town, which had a recent restoration. Throughout the day, all buildings were a way to feel how itight have been in medieval times. Then was Siena, with its massive, unfinished, cathedral, and the unique shell shaped plaza. We went wine tasting and lunch at Corbacci, an exclusive experience, as we get to pair wine with meal. Our host Agnes guided us through the tasting and with a passion for wine. The scenery of this place is all we have in mind when we think Tuscany. Lunch was great, no surprise. We left and headed.to St Gminiano, another well preserved medieval town, though with a different flare. Alex drove thru the countryside for more spectacular views. Then back to Florence, already planning our next visit.

Irina was a great guide. She came with a tablet full of illustrations to show us as she talked. Very knowledgeable and continuously pointed out things to see that we would have missed without her guidance. Our questions were answered immediately and in depth.

We booked less than 24 hours before the tour and had an amazing time! The tour was only the three of us in our group, which enabled us to customize the tour to what we wanted to see. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable in art and provided a lot of background and history with not only the pieces but also the Uffizi and the Medici family.

Angela’s & my Rickshaw tour was outstanding! Stefano was a very engaging, knowledgeable & generous guide. Top notch! With the rickshaw, we were able to gain quick access through narrow side streets, seeing interesting things that would be missed in larger vehicles or on foot (given added walking distance). Also, the rickshaw can travel to & within posted off plazas where other vehicles cannot, making this a very effective & efficient tour choice. Also, you are in open air to get a real feel for the city with its sights & smells. We hopped in & out as we pleased with no need to suffer a group tour with scheduled stops, long loading/unloading times & waiting for stragglers. Fully recommend this tour, Viator as a trusted company & Stefano as an excellent guide.
