Great day in Tuscany! - We greatly enjoyed visiting the two towns. Sara was very helpful and did a good job communicating to our group. We liked that the stops were on your own and that we were back in Florence at 6:00 pm. There’s a lot of walking to get to the towns, so if you have mobility issues, this is not a good tour to take.

Great day out! - We thoroughly enjoyed this trip it was perfect for what we wanted. Sarah our guide gave us just the right level of information on the coach before we departed to freely explore the areas on our own, which we prefer. We felt in good hands with our excellent driver and comfortable on the coach.

Don’t Miss These Unique Sights - The cities are beautiful to see and each exquisite in their own unique way. Very worthy of a visit and San Giamignano was my favorite, the roads were well paved, the cathedral was beautiful, the towers were impressive and we had a lovely lunch with saffron (grown there) and truffles. I got a little motion sickness on the bus and had to stop in Sienna for some pills so if you are prone to motion sickness, take meds before you start. After I took the pills the pharmacist recommended I had no trouble at all. I’m not a fan of audio guides because I’m not that technical nor did I have ear buds and the idea of holding my phone to my ear for hours was not attractive to me - I prefer tours where audio guides are not necessary.

Wear comfortable shoes as the walking up and down hills on cobblestone pavement is challenging. The only reason I didn’t give the experience five stars is because we wished we had been given a bit more history before each town. There was time for maybe 10 minutes of prep before we got to each location.
