Perfect day - Amazing day. Francesco was fantastic. Knowledgeable and personable, a great tour guide. He even gave us a lunch recommendation. The route and timing was excellent, I feel we saw all the best parts of Florence and Pisa in our limited time on shore from our cruise ship.

Excellent private tour! - Mauricio took great care of us and showed us the beautiful must-see spots in Florence and Pisa aboard a luxury van. He’s a great wealth of resources and recommended a nice restaurant in Florence, which we also loved. Taking a private tour esp with Mauricio was the best way to go for us because my dad has a hard time walking. We are able to customize our tour and go about it at our own pace. And Pisa was a sight to behold! Truly breathtaking. I’m so happy that I was able to bring my family to this trip. Grazie Mauricio!

Amazing, Excellento, Careness Kindness - Maurizio, and his staff were absolutely fantastico. We were a family of 17 from Australia with my older parents. A very special family holiday. We did a tour of Pisa and Florence. They took care, kindness and patience with my dad who's has problems with his mobility.He went above and beyond and arranged a wheel chair for my dad, adjusted the tour so my dad & mum would enjoy it with his 4 daughter, 4 son-in-laws and 7 grandchildren. They provided us with history of area along the way, and friendly relaxed conversations. I would so highly recommend Maurizio, and his staff from Tuscany Taste Tours. When we come again, we will call upon Maurizio. So very grateful. Grazie Miele from all 17 of us.

Van spacious , free Wi-Fi and free water , super knowledgeable - The tour guide Mauricio Manzini was prompt and on time with the docking of our cruise ship. Van is very spacious . He was very knowledgeable about the area and was easy to talk to. He took us to an amazing local restaurant in Florence and told us the best place to go for gelato. We were able to get a lot of good photos in. He also provides free Wi-Fi and water 👍. Thanks again , from the Serrano Fam …

Magnifico! - This tour is amazing! Maurizio was not only an excellent driver and tour guide, but very efficient with our timing and transportation. At no point did we feel rushed, but some how we packed in all the sights with a few bonuses. Stopped for lunch and still had time for shopping. He was even helpful in recommendations outside the tour as well. We’ll definitely book again when we come back.

Accommodating Guide - Our tour guide, Marco, was very polite and accommodating. I would say this is more of a very convenient taxi rather than a tour, but I also think that may be a bit of just how Florence/Pisa is from Livorno. He did point out some interesting things along the route, but there wasn’t much history reviewed or discussed.
