Piazza San Marco tours

Trip is excellent and convenient. We went to Siena, San Gimignano, Vineyard and Pisa. Thoses towns are so beautiful. Vineyard came with lunch and wine tasting. Totally recommended! Pisa is nice but we didn’t have much time to explore much. Be prepare that they don’t have much toilets. We had to go to cafe and purchased drinks. Public toilets are not available much.

Our guide was Gabriele and bus driver was Gabriel. The guide is english speaking and friendly. He share quite a number of tips at each location as well. Do note that the itinerary flows like this, bus to first area, then train to different part of the attraction in the first area. Then back to first area stop and bus to second area then back to Florence. Also note that if you don’t want to walk during Pisa visit, you can pay $3 per person per direction to reach there from the bus stopping area to Pisa and vice versa.

Visiting the Duomo of Florence was an unforgettable experience, made all the more special by our splendid guide, Guida. The Duomo itself is a masterpiece of Gothic architecture, with its stunning façade of white, green, and pink marble, and the breathtaking dome designed by Brunelleschi. Inside, the grandeur continues with its soaring ceilings, intricate mosaics, and magnificent frescoes. What truly elevated our visit was Guida's exceptional guidance. Her passion for the history and artistry of the Duomo was evident in every word she spoke. Guida expertly navigated us through the cathedral, bringing its rich history to life with captivating stories and fascinating insights. She made sure we didn’t miss a single detail, from the beautiful clock by Paolo Uccello to the incredible Last Judgment fresco by Vasari and Zuccari that adorns the interior of the dome. Guida's knowledge is profound, yet she presented it in a way that was engaging and accessible to everyone in our group. Her warm personality and infectious enthusiasm made the tour not just informative, but genuinely enjoyable. She answered all our questions with patience and offered a wealth of information that we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. Thanks to Guida, our visit to the Duomo was more than just a sightseeing tour—it was an enriching experience that deepened our appreciation for this iconic symbol of Florence. I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone planning to explore this magnificent cathedral.

Tour guide Roberto was friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and allowed the group the opportunity to explore at leisure as much as the schedule allowed for. Cosimo the driver was also great, and punctual which was much appreciated. Unfortunately the last stop in Montepulciano was more rushed and I would have liked more time to explore. The wine tasting lasted a little longer than expected in this location, meaning the time to look around was reduced. Overall a good tour and lots of great wine to try and beautiful vistas of Val d’Orcia and medieval towns to see (Montalcino, Pienza & Montepulciano). It was well organised and the perfect choice for accessing these locations if you haven’t got a car. Tour is appropriate for solo, couples or group travel. Would recommend, but especially to get a feel of this part of Toscana :)!

It was the best decision to join the excursion to Pisa! This is the easiest way to visit the touristy landmark because you get a tour guide to share the history while touring. We were also given some free and easy time to walk around.

This tour is perfect for those staying in Florence who want to visit the surrounding towns. The itinerary for the day is as follows: 7:20 AM Meet at the Florence SMN train station – Pisa (1 hour) – Winery near San Gimignano (Lunch + 3 wine tastings) – San Gimignano (1 hour) – Siena (1 hour) – 7:30 PM Return to SMN train station. The whole trip is quite compact, with only about 1 hour in each location. If you want to explore properly, the time is not really enough. However, its strength is its convenience, as you travel by bus and it's not tiring, so it's still very suitable. The tour guide, Barbara, is very friendly and responsible. I recommend this tour! (The entire tour is explained in English).

This was a great first group tour for me and a neat experience overall. Marta the tour leader was lovely, gave clear instructions and looked out for everyone of different languages. Would recommend this tour to first time travellers to Italy.

I could easily find the guide at Piazza Lungo. I arrived in Pisa on a double-decker bus and was able to reach my destination following the guide. They kindly wrote down the meeting time in writing and clearly informed me of it. When everyone gathered, they called my name and checked on each tour participant so that I could return safely. After the guided tour, I had enough time to look around and take pictures until the meeting time.
