Review of a Tuscany day trip from Florence to Siena, San Gimignano, Pisa, and a Chianti winery lunch with wine tasting.

“Great day trip, would definitely recommend. So much was crammed into the day. Requires a little bit of walking, nothing too strenuous. Great value for money. Annalise the tour guide in Siena was brilliant. Our walkabout tour guide “Ginni” was extremely friendly and informative. Coach driver “Emi” was also great. Great itenary to ensure so much is included but never felt rushed.”

Review of the 13-hour Cinque Terre trip from Florence, with coastal villages, optional hiking, boat views, Pisa, and practical booking advice.

“We went on the Transport Only option. The guides Alessandro and Ado were incredibly helpful, taking time to talk to us about what we wanted to do and giving us advice on which sections were best to walk and where to get the train. They helped us to buy our train and park tickets, and gave us all the information we needed. We were incredibly grateful for all of their help, which set us up to have a fantastic day. Emiliano was a great coach driver, making the journey to and from relaxing and enjoyable.”

Review of the $72.50 Amalfi Coast day trip from Naples, with Sorrento limoncello, Positano views, Amalfi, Ravello, and practical booking tips.

“This was a perfectly organized tour and a great way to explore the highlights of the Amalfi Coast in just one day. Our guide Giusi DP was very friendly, knowledgeable, and made the trip both fun and informative. A special thanks to our driver GennyC, who navigated the winding coastal roads with great skill and a calm attitude, making us feel safe and relaxed throughout the journey. The stops were well balanced: a short visit in Sorrento including a Limoncello tasting, a beautiful photo stop in Positano, 1.5 hours of free time in Amalfi, and 1 hour in charming Ravello. Each place offered enough time to enjoy the atmosphere and…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 4,178 reviews · from $152

Review of Walkabout Tours’ Cinque Terre day trip from Florence, with all five villages, trains, coastal boat ride, and optional hike.

“The day trip to Cinque Terre was excellent. Our 3 guides Christian, Manuel and Victoria were great - knowledgeable, friendly and organised. The day is long and busy but it gives a great snapshot of each of the 3 villages. There is a LOT of walking and a LOT of steps. Only one in our group did the actual hike however the other 3 of us went for an explore that took us up hundreds of high rocky stairs also so be prepared for a physical day regardless. Thankfully the weather was good and we were able to take the boat trip as well. Magical destination and we thoroughly enjoyed…”
