Florence to Rome with LIMOSERVICEINITALY

We booked three transfers with this excellent company. The first was from Venice to Florence stopping off at the Ferrari factory and museum on the way. Our driver Stefano was most courteous, friendly and knowledgeable, even going as far as to share one of his mother's recipes with us! The travel time flew by as he entertained us with facts and anecdotes and he took us to his favourite roadside cafe at a gas station for lunch. The visit to the Ferrari Museum was outstanding, but we would not waste money on the factory visit again if we had a choice. One merely rode through in a bus with a brief commentary as to what the buildings were and a bit of history. We then met up with Stefano again the following day to visit the Ducati Factory and Museum in Bologna, a bit of backtracking but so worthwhile. We even preferred it to the Ferrari visit as one was taken right through the factory on foot with a Ducati guide, seeing the making of these wonderful machines, and the museum was amazing. Stefano is very keen on MotoGP and motorbikes, so it was a pleasure to go through the museum and factory with him. The next time we met up with Stefano was our transfer a few days later from Florence to Rome, with a stop off in Pisa. Another great day and we so enjoyed his company and all the interesting facts he had to impart. We felt like we had travelled with a friend and not just a driver. I had booked these trips a year in advance and had exchanged many pleasant emails with the company director, Gianmaria Mariti, who was extremely patient and professional and answered all my questions quickly. My only regret was that it was not possible to meet up with him, but Stefano was wonderful and we highly recommend using this company. Thanks again Stefano for making our stay in Italy so enjoyable and I will always use your mother's recipe for cooking sausages in future, simply delicious!

Our group of five splurged a bit on this private transfer from Florence and Rome and it turned out to be a very wise decision -- the convenience of being picked up and dropped off at our hotel alone made it worthwhile! We knew we'd only have 1-1/2 hrs in Siena but our driver (I think his name was Stefano?) gave us good tips on how to spend the time. The lunch and wine tasting at Poggio Rubino was terrific, but we probably enjoyed the 50-year aged balsamic vinegar even more than the Brunellos! All in all, a wonderful day. Highly recommend!
