What people love about Tuscany Tours from Rome
- Italian Sojourn with Leaning Tower of Pisa
The trip was great with a good balance of tours and free time. Communication was excellent and any questions I had were answered right away! Accommodations were comfortable and very conveniently located.
- Gems of Rome & Florence, Semi-Private Tour
Lovely tour, particularly of Siena and San Gimignano. From cathedrals to cobblestones, turrets to towers, Pinocchio dolls to pasta, and reds to whites, this all-day tour was a wonderful experience to cherish and remember years from now. Special praise to Yvonne from Tui Italia for her outstanding responsiveness, communications, and agility.
Well done Wanderful tours. The tour organizer at Wanderful Holidays UK was quick to respond to my questions and concerns . The included Hotels are within walking distance to train the stations. I’d recommend the hotel upgrade to stay right on the island of Venice. It was delightful to do the grand canal vapperetto after dark with an audio tour I had downloaded. My only concern would be earlier details of included tour starting time and ending time. This knowledge would have been helpful to help plan dinner reservation or other gallery visits.
