Florence Local Culture Tours 2024/2025

“I have had the wonderful pleasure of touring with you, the tour was well executed. The experiences are amazing and very unique. So much fun and I will tour again. I will recommend.”

“The itinerary, tour guide, local guides, bus driver and bus were all excellent. We saw so much during just 5 days, with so many beautiful hilltop towns not visited on many tours. I found the pace of the tour and the amount of free time to be great. Each day begins very early, to be able to see so much. There are 3 optional tours that were offered to us on the 1st day, which were very reasonably priced payable in cash, so I would recommend to bring some Euros from your local bank at home to start. (Not everything can be put on a credit card.). Also be prepared to walk quite a bit as the buses cannot park in the city centers, which you will find on all tours. Comfy walking shoes are a must! (The interiors of museums are not included, so it would be necessary to buy tickets in advance online for the afternoons that there is free time in Florence and Venice if interested.) The tour guide was very helpful with information, tips and recommendations for our free time as well. Some things to note: I would just caution that the 2 hotels, especially the one in Venice were more basic than what we would consider a 4* hotel to be in the states. They were close to public transportation, which is why they were chosen. Also the tour starts on the first day by picking people up from different hotels in Rome. The Hotel St. Martin by Omnia is excellent and I would recommend booking your 1st and last nights before and after the tour there if need accommodations. The 2 included dinners at the hotels were a little basic in Florence and Venice, however the 1st course of eggplant parmigiana at the Venice hotel was very good! The lunch in Montepulciano was excellent, a highlight!”

“Exploring Italy through this trip was an unforgettable experience! It allowed us to see all the iconic landmarks in each city we visited, offering a remarkable variety of activities that left no room for boredom. What made the journey even more exceptional were the guides - their passion for the country, combined with their extensive knowledge, made the trip truly unforgettable. They made it a priority to connect with each and every traveler, ensuring that everyone was fully immersed in the tour. With everything taken care of, this trip exceeded our expectations and more. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to discover Italy in the best possible way!”
