We hired Matteo for two separate trips for our trip to Italy over the holidays at the end of 2021. First we hired him to pick us up from the Rome airport (FCO) and drop us at our hotel. Then we hired him to drive us to Montepulciano in Tuscany. Since there were 7 of us in or group, it made sense to hire a private car for this trip. Matteo was wonderful. He is kind and considerate and provided excellent service. On our return trip from Montepulciano, we stopped for lunch in Orvieto. Matteo was very helpful and I cannot recommend Matteo and Mia Limo enough. (Note, that we didn't do the Love Tuscany Tour that is listed here, but since it included Montepulciano I selected it for this review.)
Ciao David! We sincerely thank you for taking the time to provide us your feedback with such kind words! Looking forward to seeing you again, we wish you all the best! Kind regards, Matteo P.
