What people love about Tuscany Tours from Rome
- Gems of Rome & Florence
This tour was fantastic! In Rome the hotel was in a great location and had a lovely breakfast but my single room was really small and had a single bed. In Florence the hotel was in a great location, was first rate and had a lovely breakfast. My single room was large and had a king size bed.
- Best of Rome, Florence & Venice
Overall we enjoyed this tour. Our guides were knowledgeable and entertaining. All the details were texted the night before so that was helpful. The only issue would be that the Rome in a Day tour was way too much for one day. It should have been 2 different tours. It was exhausting.

I ’m remiss in not having written sooner to thank you for all that you did to make our Roman Holiday such a success. We had a wonderful time, and so much of it is directly thanks to you. When the logistics go well, everything goes well, and everything fell beautifully into place. The Rome part of the trip was wonderful. You picked us up at the airport, squired us all over Rome, then took us to the ship. They were a wonderful service—particularly Andrea, our favorite driver, and Claudio, our guide for both days. Both were charming and Claudio was a stellar guide. We were all impressed with the depth and range of his knowledge—not just a canned tour, but a stroll through Rome’s past, present and future.
