A fab holiday. An interesting time in Athens, really loved it so much to see and do from ancient to modern. A great time island hopping with Peter our leader at the helm. Nothing was too much trouble for him to sort out when needed, so thank you. All the islands visited were very different and our escorted walks very invigorating. Travelled with a lovely group so had a great time.

A very enjoyable and interesting tour. Notwithstanding the half day visit to Livorno, which was somewhat uninspiring, the itinerary was well thought out, and fully met our expectations. We saw wonderful sights, ate delicious food, and drank lovely wines in the company of a great group of fellow travellers. The tour leader Antongiulio, was a charming young man, with a great sense of humour, who readily shared his vast knowledge on the many places that we visited. Mention must also be made to our driver, Stephane who safely drove us throughout most of the tour. Grazie Antongiulio and Stephane.

A Taste of Tuscany - Hilltop Tow...

Julianne | Traveled in September

5.0 - Excellent

Explore scored again with a wonderful to tour through the most charming parts of Tuscany. This tour ticks so many boxes, beautiful scenery and historical villages perched on hills, Informative guided tours, free time to explore further, shop or relax with a drink, and a small group that meant elements could be tailored to suit our preferences. On top of this we enjoyed a number of included 3 course meals, all with local produce and free flowing wines. No hotel meals, free evenings we'd eat out at venues with the locals. Our tour leader Antonguilio (AJ) was fabulous, making sure we had a fantastic experience in Tuscany. A great holiday trip.
