I have never been keen on group tours - especially on coaches. This was our first trip to Italy and since we were travelling around by train and bus, we wanted to see a little more beyond the cities where we were based.

We are a family of 4 who recently had 5 days in Florence. Having been to Sienna, San Gimignano and Pisa backpacking 25 years ago I wanted to take my family back to visit these memorable places.

Our Italian friends from Melbourne recommended us to join this tour, departing from Florence SMN Station, early morning and travelled to 3 towns - Siena, San Gimignano and Pisa in 12 hours.

There were about 20 passengers on a modern 50 seat air conditioned coach. Our guide was Mauro, mid 20's and as enthusuastic as a little kid about the days forthcoming events.... more

I was alone in Florence wanted to go by train to siena and Pisa, arriving at the hotel heard about this tour, booked it, and was the best decission.
