Worth your time!

It was well worth the money. If you are in Florence and want to explore more cities, get this tour. I thought the meeting point would be hard to figure out, but it was just one tram ride. The stops in Pisa, Siena, and San Gimignano were amazing!! I couldn’t recommend this tour more! While in San Gimignano, you have to try “gelato” (ice cream). It was really good, if not the best I've tasted all throughout this Italy trip. Our guide was really professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this tour!

Amazing!

I don't have enough words to describe the experience. I usually don't write reviews, but our guide was so amazing that I have to say something. Yes, the day is long, but that is expected if you book Florence tours to Pisa. You get to visit amazing Pisa, Chianti, Siena, and San Gimignano! There is no other way to visit these in one day. I found my time in Pisa and Siena enough to do what I wanted. They have a perfectly organized tour with different people and guides to help you at every stop if you need it. On this tour, you will walk a lot. These are old cities, and parking is not something they cared about centuries ago. You can stay on the bus if you are too tired, in my group everyone was having a good time, from little kids to older people. The lunch was amazing. I will definitely book them again for the Cinque Terre day trip from Florence.
