Must-do day trip when in Rome

Published on Nov, 2024

Excellent tour with Dina and our driver, Pietro! Dina is extremely knowledgeable and personable, and was very kind to let us stop for breaks or quick shopping when we saw something we wanted. She was very clear in her instructions regarding meeting points and times. Overall and excellent day with an excellent guide!

Enjoyable day trip

Published on Oct, 2024

Teresa was our guide and Pino was our driver. We enjoyed both of them, and they made the trip very enjoyable. We really liked Sienna and Teresa gave us a lot of background on the area. We then went to San Gimignano for a wine tasting and lunch. They treated us very well there and the food kept coming. This, too, was enjoyable. We left hotel around 6:30 a.m. (they picked us up at 2 hotels) and returned around 6:00 p.m. It was a wonderful day and very glad to get out of the congestion in Rome.

Truly memorable

Our guide Monica and driver Natalia made this experience truly memorable. They were both knowledgable, courteous, friendly and totally helpful. This itinerary is amazing and the two ladies ensured that the day was wonderful

Highlight of Our Vacation

Published on Sep, 2024

Joseph (Jessippi) and Roberto took us to Sienna, San Gimignano and to the Tenuta Torciano winery. The most rememberable and most cherished part of this trip was when we met the owner and his family at the Tenuta Torciano winery. We had seen them and this winery on U-Tube videos and were so excited that we had an opportunity to meet them. Joseph shared much knowledge about this region and winery with us. My wife and I had just finished a 9-day Mediterranean cruise that started in Barcelona and ended in Rome, and we both have to say, without a doubt, that this tour was the highlight of our vacation.

Taste of traditional Italy

The journey, visit to the towns of Siena and San Gimignano are definitely etched in our memory. Special mention to tour guide Dina and driver Roberto, who made the journey very interesting, pleasurable and safe.
