Our driver was very nice and was a careful driver. He was quick to tell us that he was not a guide, so he didn’t give us a lot of information that we did not already know. Be sure to note that the lunch and the cost of the wine tastings are not included in the price. That makes for a pleasant but very expensive day.
Dear but you should read before book an experience!! is clearly written on the details what is included and what is not included, I really don't understand why you do a booking and then you complain about something that is a your mistake you don't read what you book??.. doesn't seems so smart for a person that do that, you should be embarrassed for yourself after write this review you are pulling your leg by yourself)) is really ridiculous this, first time on all my all good reviews that someone complain for is own mistake. Be careful and try to be more fair in life with the people you are playing with the lives of people who work honestly by using your indiscipline and laziness in not even reading what you book.
What an amazing day with Gianluca! We were very fortunate to have him as our guide. He was professional, fun, and very knowledgeable about the area. I would highly recommend this private tour if you want a balanced day between the city and countryside. It was a perfect day for our family!
Thank you so much!! hope to meet you again, Big Hugs from Florence!!
The entire tour was majestic and memorable. Gianluca was our Tour guide and he was exceptional throughout the day. We highly recommend to enjoy an unforgettable experience touring the best of Florence and Tuscany Wines & lunch. Gianluca goes out of his way to take you to scenic spots that you wont normally see while in Florence, and the Winery and lunch pairing with fine wines, was truly a special experience. Celebrating our 25th Anniversary, Gianluca made our day extra special with my wife asking about a certain Italian desert "Maritozzo", which resulted us stopping at the local bakery and a final touch of taking us to enjoy authentic Florence Gelato. Truly first class service and experience while in the comfort of a emasculate Mercedes - a must for couples.
Thank you soo much dears!! Hope to see you again!! Big Hugss
