Florence Tours and Trips

Our tour guide, Fabio, was excellent, knowledgeable and attentive. Searching myself online for a tour of Tuscany, I saw this tour offered by a company called GoWay. I was very dissatisfied with the agent with GoWay and did not always get correct information from the agent. When my husband and I met the group at the Roma Hotel, Fabio approached us (we had not yet met) and asked us if we were with the Back Roads Tour. Our response was NO. Thankfully Fabio found us on his list. Fabio was wonderful.

A very nice tour, the perfect blend of sightseeing in lovely towns, walking in beautiful Tuscan countryside, and local food and drink. Enough walking to feel you've earned the wine tasting, but not too much to make it feel like a slog. Our guide Augusto was excellent too. Logistically perfect too, as the start and end point were really near the airports and railway stations, while the drives between towns were never too long either. If you want to see Pisa, arrive early on the 1st day or the day before. It's also worth staying on in Florence afterwards; I stayed on for another night and did a day trip to Lucca, which isn't on the tour, but highly recommended.

The sites and accommodations were amazing. The wine, cheese, olive oil and balsamic vinegar tasting was quite enjoyable. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable regarding the areas that we went to.

We totally enjoyed our Europe Escape tour. This was our first trip to Europe, and Sam our guide was the best! Great itinerary, dozens of memories, and never a dull moment. We highly recommend it!

Absolutely unbelievable trip. There were only 9 of us on this tour and we all clicked very quickly. Michele, our guide was so knowledgeable, lots of fun and looked after us all very well. Andrea our driver, made us feel very safe and was also friendly and helpful. The Tuscany scenery is stunning and combined with great food and accommodations, has made our Italy holiday a memorable vacation. Porterage at our hotels was appreciated and we were grateful that Michele made the pace easy for us all. As the "oldies" in the group, we were worried about holding our fellow travelers up, however we were never made to feel that we were a nuisance. We highly recommend Back-Roads Tours, we are doing another tour with them in a couple of weeks.

This was an excellent tour covered several countries. Lot of nice places to see. Guide by an excellent tour guide Edgar and a very professional driver Dino. Thank you all for an excellent visit to Europe.
