    Honestly I don't even know where to start. This was the best tour in the several done across Italia over a few weeks. I will start with Alaa our driver. Super friendly, super helpful, and an amazing driver. He drives efficiently and safely. He told us that we were crazy for trying to see so much in one day, but thanks to his driving we got everywhere safely and efficiently and NEVER felt rushed anywhere. Ok on to the tours. The stop in Pisa was great. Having a tour guide was really helpful for history, context, and of course skipping the line. Many people looked lost after their online audio tours ran out of content. The large groups looked uncomfortable because there are so many people all around. It was great to get the history and ask all questions without being rushed. The vineyard tour: may have been the highlight in Tuscany. The wine tasting was outstanding. The lunch that accompanied the wine tasting was one of the best meals we had the entire time. And no that wasn't just the wine talking. Alaa said our trip was really designed for two days versus one, so the one thing I would've spent more time doing was touring the vineyard. But we had other stops. Our stop in Sienna was much more entertaining than I thought it would be. The neighborhoods in the province we visited were having a celebration, which added to the experience. The tour guide that met us in Sienna was very knowledgeable and helpful. I will stop here - this is a must do tour.

    The tour was just okay. The worst part was the ride. My suggestion is, since this is a whole day tour, company should have provided a newer, more comfortable van. The ride was rough, you could feel all the irregularities of the road. It was hard for the back. Nonetheless, the driver was really nice and she even called for a taxi at the end of the trip.

    Lots of walking but worth it. Wish we had more time but understand that this tour was trying to squeeze all the activities. The tour guide was knowledgeable and helpful through the whole experience!

    The van was clean & comfortable & the driver was nice. But there was no commentary during the various drives to the cities and no real expectation setting for what was next. The guides in both Siena and Pisa were lovely and the tour is nice, but I think a more engaged driver/guide while traveling across Tuscany would have added a great deal. In short, I don’t think we gained much by doing a private tour versus a standard Tuscany tour that includes the same 3 towns.

    Chiara was our tour guide and she was fabulous! She was very knowledgeable and informative — she gave us more information than our brains could hold! Our tour was an all day tour that included a trip to Siena, San Gimignano - which included a stop at a beautiful winery called Tenuta Torciano for lunch and wine-tasting, and finally, Pisa. Chiara knew the answer to every question we asked her throughout the day, and she went above and beyond her duties as a tour guide to make sure we had the best experience possible. Thank you Chiara and Viatour for helping make our trip to Italy a dream vacation! Moretti Family California, USA
