Rome · DAY TRIPS TO FLORENCE
The fast train makes it a genuine day rather than a stunt — about ninety minutes each way. These 15 differ on whether the train is included, how much of the day is guided, and whether Pisa gets bolted on (which is what turns a good day into a rushed one).

“I was shocked to find out in Pisa there is nothing to see other than the church, baptistry and the leaning tower. That was underwhelming. Florence was lovely!! The guide we had for the statue of David was knowledgeable. If you are in a hurry this is a good time crunch way to see things otherwise book the events separately and enjoy more of Florence.”

“I recently completed this tour with Carrani Tours (English languages) on 11th September 2019. Our tour guide, Patrizia was professional, lovely and funny. She is an experienced tour guide and took care of us well. Antonio, the bus driver was nice and worked very hard to get all of our luggages in and out from the bus. The itinerary is good overall for first timers especially to get the best of the places in Northern Italy. The only one big comment I want to emphasize here is Viator DID NOT state clearly that some of the tours to places have additional costs. Here's the options that you will need to…”

“Tour itself is wonderful.BUT 1 Tour number is too big. 55 people! 2 We suspect that tours were joined together and we were not warned of the huge number 3 Group included families with very young children 2 of whom were special needs who were very disruptive on the bus. Again we were not aware that young children would be on the tour. Totally unsuitable for kids under 12 4 Hotel in Venice was disappointing. Very old stained bedding. Meals in restaurant were excellent. We realise that it would be difficult to find a hotel that would cater to such a large number but the quality of the hotel needs…”

“Fun, Laughs, and Beauty Ten stars!! Carola and Max were THE BEST! We were nervous taking such a long tour with 3 kids (ages 16, 8 and 7). I mean, the kids can get on our nerves after a few hours! But Carola and Max were wonderful. To start the day, I did not plan well and no one in our family had breakfast before our morning pick up. Fortunately , Carola checked in with us and made time for a quick breakfast stop. During the drive, Carola and Max were a great team and shared so much interesting information. They were especially kind to our kids who ask random…”

“Got to the train station and met our guide who didn’t have any information on us being on the tour. Therefore, we did not have a train ticket! The guide spent a lot of time calling to see why he didn’t get the information from his office and trying to get us tickets for seats on the train. He did finally arrange to get us a train ticket, but for at least 30 minutes it didn’t appear we would be going! Very upsetting and anxiety that we could’ve missed the trip due to their negligence!”
