Too much for one day! - Sabrina was an excellent tour guide! Although the group was large, it wasn't any bigger than advertised. Sabrina kept track of everyone, keeping us on schedule. She provided us with a highlighted map of Florence so we could explore the top sites on our own. We went with her to the market for a delicious tasting and ended up spending more time there. We even had fresh pasta for lunch! On the way to Pisa, Sabrina talked about the area we were passing and gave the history. She also arranged for a "train" ride to the Leaning Tower instead of us walking from the parking lot--for 5 euros each it was worth it! Sabrina also took us back directly to the ship instead of the shuttle stop which was another plus! The tour itself is rushed, especially Florence. The Leaning Tower is a site to be seen, however, Florence needs at least a day to itself to see what is there.

Excellent & Highly Recommended - Sabrina was an excellent tour guide. You won’t be bored for this trip. Driver was professional. Coach bus was clean and could fit 50 people. Need to pay attention to the meeting point as there are several tours going on at the same place. Good timing and we spent 3 hrs at Florence and 1 hr at Pisa. Additional $5 r/t pp for choo choo train ride from the parking lot to Pisa which was still worth it. Driver took us directly back to port in time. Our family was happy with this tour.

Amazing Experience & City - Easy to locate our guide Sabrina off the ship. She was amazing in providing us information and there was the perfect amount of “on our own” time throughout the day!

We were greatly impressed... - We were greatly impressed by the service. Our cruise ship changed arrival and departure times after we had made our booking and you tracked this and altered our trip to suit. I was kept informed all the way and offered help and assistance at every point 10/10 :) The guide was informative, friendly and professional 10/10 :) The places we visited were amazing 10/10 :) The only negative was the coach. It was old and in poor condition with faulty/no air conditioning so the journeys (all over an hour long) were quite unpleasant in the heat.

Skip the Florence Tour - This was a long day of bus travel. Florence was very crowded and we only had about 2 hours there. In retrospect, we’d take a tour to Pisa and save Florence for a time when we could spend a few days.

Never again - There really weren’t any positives for this excursion. it was a long day spent either in a bus or waiting for someone late to turn up never again with this company. My booking was for a 930 am start I arrived early but never left on the bus until 1030. It was a 9.5 hour day with only 3 hours spent overall in Florence and Pisa an absolute fiasco. I wrote to the company twice and received no response. As for the guide Vanesa terrible never again and I recommend you find an alternate tour company
