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.”

“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.”

★★★★★★★★★★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…”

9.Tuscany: Day Trip to Pisa, Siena, San Gimignano, and Chianti

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 2,283 reviews · 12 hours (approx.) · from $78

Review of a 12-hour Tuscany day trip from Florence to Siena, San Gimignano, Pisa, and Chianti with lunch and four wine tastings.

“I signed up for English speaking but the tour was combined with Spanish speakers. I find people on the bus are rude (talking)while the tour guide speaks the other language. I think because the guide needs to speak in two languages, they cut short the information given. Also 50 people is too many for a tour that contains a lot of walking. Speaking of that, we spent about 20 minutes each way in each stop walking from to/from parking to tour beginning. That’s 2 hrs wasted! Tour guides need to speak slower while speaking in other languages.”

Review of the Florence to Cinque Terre and Pisa day trip, with train travel, free time, food tips, hiking details, value, and practical advice.

“Excellent! Full of information and good humor. Nothing left to question, everything was laid out and explained ahead of time. Given advice and recommendations on where we may want to visit, and allowed to "tag along", but not led around on a leash. Tour Leader Nathan Smith was phenomenal. I can't say enough about his friendly demeanor, knowledge of the locations, and willingness to offer direction and background history/stories as applicable. He assisted with ideal picture taking locations, offered incredible advice on how to make the most of my own iPhone settings to maximize the photo results, and even made himself available to take pictures of my spouse and I…”
