Honestly I don't even know where to start. This was the best tour in the several done across Italia over a few weeks. I will start with Alaa our driver. Super friendly, super helpful, and an amazing driver. He drives efficiently and safely. He told us that we were crazy for trying to see so much in one day, but thanks to his driving we got everywhere safely and efficiently and NEVER felt rushed anywhere. Ok on to the tours. The stop in Pisa was great. Having a tour guide was really helpful for history, context, and of course skipping the line. Many people looked lost after their online audio tours ran out of content. The large groups looked uncomfortable because there are so many people all around. It was great to get the history and ask all questions without being rushed. The vineyard tour: may have been the highlight in Tuscany. The wine tasting was outstanding. The lunch that accompanied the wine tasting was one of the best meals we had the entire time. And no that wasn't just the wine talking. Alaa said our trip was really designed for two days versus one, so the one thing I would've spent more time doing was touring the vineyard. But we had other stops. Our stop in Sienna was much more entertaining than I thought it would be. The neighborhoods in the province we visited were having a celebration, which added to the experience. The tour guide that met us in Sienna was very knowledgeable and helpful. I will stop here - this is a must do tour.
