Private Day Tour From Florence To Pisa, Chianti And San Gimignano

Luigi provided good Intel. Beautiful sites, comfortable transportation. We paid a brief visit to the Italian, American World War II cemetery, which was unexpected. Highly recommend visiting sienna.

Luigi was absolutely amazing! We were traveling with our family, including our one-year-old grandson, and he went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable and enjoyed the day. He was incredibly accommodating, patient, and flexible with our family's needs. His knowledge of Italy was outstanding. He shared so much fascinating history, local culture, and insider information that made the tour both educational and enjoyable. It felt like spending the day with a knowledgeable friend who truly loves sharing his country with visitors. If you're considering a private tour, I cannot recommend Luigi highly enough. He made our experience unforgettable, and we would book with him again without hesitation!

Luigi was a terrific guide and driver. The Tuscan countryside was wonderful and the winery lunch and tasting were totally worth the extra money. So lovely. But it really was Luigi’s knowledge and pride of his region that made the day. Instead of the advertised Pisa stop, he suggested Siena instead which was a great choice. What a beautiful town center! And his inpromptu stop at the American WWII cemetery a day after Memorial Day was especially moving. Luigi wins the day!

Luigi was extremely knowledgeable and was flexible with our itinerary. He knew the area and culture very well! He helped make this a really great experience for all of us. Luigi was also very friendly! We highly recommend this experience!

What a wonderful day. Luigi was fabulous. He was so informative. San Gimignano is magical and the wine tasting at Casa Emma was perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better day, thanks Luigi!

We really enjoyed our day in Tuscany. Our driver, Luigi, was not a guide but easily answered our many queations. We were glad to get an up close and personal look at the beautiful Italian countryside.

This was the perfect tour to experience Pisa and the Tuscany landscape. Comfortable van and perfect tour. We totally enjoyed the lunch and wine tasting option. The sunset at Piazzale Michelangelo was the perfect ending to an amazing day.

It was a great trip and Luigi was a very good driver. It was a very relaxed and comfortable ride and tour. He was very knowledgeable and made the trip a lot of fun.

Luigi was a fabulous, knowledgeable and engaging tour guide. Full of interesting facts and humour. Would definitely recommend him

The whole experience was great. Perhaps working with Gino was the best. Thoughtful, very informative and his attention to details was superb. Great guy and made our entire family feel safe. If I were to do it again I probably would skip the winery tasting- not sure it was worthwhile- but at least the one we went to. We paid 400Euro for 2 adults and 3 teenagers. Family who owned the winery were super nice but for that price I could have eaten a Michelin restaurant. Perhaps having a 7-8pm dinner in San Gimignano after a late afternoon Pisa visit would have been better. No one’s fault- first timer in the region.. Gino remains 100% best ever

We loved this private tour! We weren’t feeling great in the morning and needed an extra hour before getting started for the day and Luigi kindly accommodated. We started our day off in San Gimignano and tried Luigi’s favorite Gelato spot that was 10/10. From there, we visited an amazing small locally winery - Sant’Appiano - we tried 6 local wines, olive oil & balsamic with homemade lunch (linguine ragu, pork & beans, and tiramisu - all FUEGO)! This was by far the best part of the visit. I had tried Tiramisu at 12 different locations (we’d been in Italy & France for 14 days by this point) and nothing compared to how good this Tiramisu was. After that, we drove to Pisa, saw the tower for a few minutes & then left (not much else to see). We got there late so the church was closed by 5pm but all we cared to see was the tower & skit. Luigi’s van was extremely comfortable, he gave a lot of really nice local tips, and was so accommodating. We appreciated his time & attention & would recommend this tour to anyone looking for a relaxing private tour!

We had a very comfortable trip enjoying San Gimignano, Pisa. We opted out of wine tasting as one of our group members does not drink alcoholic drinks. Luigi was a great driver and guide, friendly, flexible, and provided a couple of other stops instead of wine tasting. We had a great day being chauffeured.

A fabulous tour with the wonderful Luigi! A lifelong dream to see Pisa and the famous tower, an amazing lunch with wine tasting at a beautiful Tuscan winery, and a visit to San Gimignano, which wasn't originally in our holiday plans but wouldn't have missed it! Tuscany has an amazing landscape (and fabulous local wines!)

Awesome experience. Luigi was a great driver and guide. Car was squeaky clean and Luigi was in touch with me the entire time to figure out timing / lunch etc. highly recommend.

Luigi was a great guide and driver. Very informative and pleasant. Very patient. Van was clean and in great condition. We enjoyed it very much as a family.

We had Luigi and he was attentive and knew a lot. He contacted us days before the trip and we customized our tour. We absolutely loved the experience and would recommend him as a super star driver.

Francesco was an amazing driver. He took us to Pisa, San Gimignano then ended at Casa Emma for a lovely lunch and wine tasting. We had ample time at each location. He took us on the out of the way route to see the amazing Tuscan countryside, and took us to the piazza overlooking Florence for amazing city views. All that and drop off/ pick up at our AirBnB.

My wife and I had the most amazing day with Francesco touring the Tuscany countryside. Francesco picked us up in front of our rented apartment right on time in a clean, air conditioned, Mercedes van. Francesco was easy to communicate with and even reached out beforehand to offer any assistance with Florence. As we toured and drove, Francesco was great at explaining the area and history. Our first stop was in Piza where he dropped us off right by the leaning tower, and told us some highlights to see, and told us to text him, and he would pick us up at the same location. We had a great time, and Francesco was right there with cold waters ready for us when we were done in Piza. Next, he had arraigned a beautiful lunch and wine tasting at a local Tuscan winery which turned out to be the highlight of our trip! I would definitely recommend adding this stop to your day! After several bottles of wine, an amazing charcuterie board, and lunch we headed to San Gimignano to visit the incredible old town. Once again, Francesco was right there waiting for us when we were done. We finished up the trip with a drive up to Michaelanglo’s Plaza to take in the incredible view. So sad when our day came to an end. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone interested in seeing the countryside. Very easy company to communicate with, and worth the money.

We had an amazing tour of Tuscany with our guide, Luigi (Gino). He was very friendly, engaging, knowledgeable and informative on all the sites we visited and saw along the way. He was also very helpful and patient with my elderly folks who were limited in mobility. Thanks so much Gino for a wonderful trip! Bernadette

With a group of friends I spent my holidays in Tuscany, the best way to visit it was touring the Chianti hills with Francesco and his van. Francesco took us to the typical Tuscan villages (difficult to reach by other vehicle), with his friendliness he enlivened the journey between one village and another. A highlight of the tour was the wine tasting at a wonderful farm, where we sipped some typical wines and admired the view. Friendliness, comfort and relax are the keys to this tour with Francesco. I hope to return soon and repeat. Thank you!!

My family and I spent the most amazing day with our driver Francesco. He picked us up at our hotel and drove us through the Tuscan countryside. He knows so many stories and so much about the wine and culinary marvels of this region. We discovered so many stunning places with him. Little villages perched on hill tops , a wonderful winery on the hilly outskirts of San Gimignano . It was so exclusive and so relaxing to sit in the shade and taste the wines and typical Tuscan charcuterie, cheese , olives and many other products of this magical land. Francesco knows the history and he knows how to entertain his clients . I highly recommend this tour and the pleasure of spending your day with a very kind man who will enrich the already glorious experience of driving though the Chianti Valley.

The day was by far our best day in Florence with a visit to Siena and San Gimignano with an amazing drive through the Tuscan region with views of rolling hills for miles and miles, to top it all off we had an amazing driver by the name of Francesco, who was well knowledgeable in the area and just a delight and respectful human being. He took us through some of the most beautiful scenery and made it such an enjoyable experience for myself and the family. Thank you so much Francesco for making it a memorable experience and thanks for the laughs we had along the way.

Wonderful day trip and great experience to see the Tuscan countryside. The wine tasting was amazing, and the icing on the cake was the stop at the old medieval town. Francesco was a friendly driver, and it was nice to have the privacy and comfort of our own car.

Our driver Francesco was great, had little bits of info to share about the tour, people and places. Extraordinary, it was well beyond what I thought Pisa and a wine tour could be

Francesco was excellent .. we had a great time on a private wine tour through Pisa and the country side .. We couldn’t have asked for a better more relaxing afternoon ..

Great day trip with Francesco and our 2 teenagers. Loved the wine tasting lunch - best part of the day and we stopped at some other sights along the way. Would highly recommend. He was on time for pickup at our hotel in Florence and friendly!

This was the perfect experience during our recent Italy trip. Gino and Francesco (who was our driver) contacted us a few days before the trip to make sure we coordinate the logistics of picking us up from the hotel. Francesco arrived promptly as promised - our group was in 2 hotels, he picked us all up and took us to Pisa. If you want to spend more time at the Pisa and visit all the monuments there, this tour will not give you the time needed. We could do the Pisa tower climb (bought tickets separately for that) and walk around for a bit, we didnt have time to visit the others in the complex. After the Pisa visit, he took us on a drive to a small family-owned winery for some really tasty lunch and wine tasting. Following the winery visit he drove us in the Tuscany region to San Gimignano - the most adorable little town you can visit. I really wish we had more time in San Gimignano. This is an almost full day event - and we got back to Florence around 6 PM. I highly recommend taking this tour if possible.

Gino was a wonderful guide and a talented driver who took us to the most sublime destinations. You will discover on your own the beautiful locations of Pisa and San Gimignano, and he will bring you to a gorgeous vineyard for a delightful afternoon of food and wine tasting. I treasure these memories as would anyone who booked this amazing journey!

Where to begin with this amazing experience?! We had the great fortune of spending the day with our driver, Gino, who was so kind and courteous at every step. He helped us navigate and understand the countryside and all the beautiful places we were seeing. We had planned a very intensive day seeing 3 different cities, but I wouldn’t change a thing about the tour. Every view and every city was a sumptuous feast for the eyes and an opportunity to learn something new. I am so glad we were able to have an introduction to these stunning places. Gino gave us so many great suggestions and was so accommodating that by the end of the day it felt like we were saying goodbye to an old friend. He even gave us a fantastic recommendation for dinner in Florence. We hope we can return and explore even more and will not travel with anyone else! If you’re unsure about booking one of these tours, stop overthinking and just do it! Enjoy making memories to last a lifetime.

The best memory of our trip to Florence! From start to finish, this tour was nothing but the best. Gino picked us up at our hotel as planned. He was incredibly professional and informative. Gino’s spotless luxury van was very comfortable and spacious. The itinerary from Florence-Pisa, lunch at a family owned winery and time in San Gimignano was exceptional. We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to take in the gorgeous scenery. I recommend this to anyone looking for the perfect day trip through the Tuscan countryside. It was a day we will never forget!

Our driver Gino was very nice and knowledgeable and catered the tour to our needs. He made our day trip unforgettable. You pay more than bus tours but this is so much more enjoyable. My wife said she would choose a private tour over a bus tour in heartbeat. If you have the budget for it, this is highly recommended!

Our family group of 18 people (ranging in age from 3 to 83-yeqrs-old) booked a day trip from Florence to Siena and San Gimignano, with a stop for lunch in Monteriggioni in July 2023. Luigi was great to work with when we were planning the trip, and he and the other two drivers were knowledgeable and personable. Luigi coordinated a private tour guide, Liv, for the Siena portion of our trip, and she was great, too! Luigi recommended the stop in Monteriggioni for lunch and it was a quaint and picturesque town and a delicious lunch at Trattoria Antico Travaglio. The entire day was easy for us, from pick up to drop off at our hotel! I highly recommend this tour service!

Perfect tour of Tuscany. Gino is an outstanding tour guide. We loved every minute of it!We even discovered we have a mutual friend from Texas. From Florence to overlooks of the most beautiful views of Florence and the wine country to charming Sienna and San Gimignano. Want to do it all again!

Francesco was a wonderful guide through these wonderful sites. He communicated with us before our excursion and arrived punctually in the morning. The car ride was well planned and he even suggested a wonderful small family owned winery to stop at for lunch. We did some wine tasting that paired beautifully with the meal they served us. The cities we traveled to were everything we expected and more. Siena and San Gimignano bring our favorites. Time allotted in each city was perfect as well. Francesco was very flexible with our times spent and even took us to Piazza Michelangelo on our return trip to see the beautiful city of Florence from up above. Highly recommend this tour!

My family and I couldn't have asked for a better trip with Francesco! He was very personable and was very excited to show us his country. He had a great sense of humor and kept spirits up even when we got caught in a hail storm! It was amazing going to the winery and having the opportunity to taste rich Tuscan wines, along with a delicious meal. It was very special having a personal driver while going to see these gorgeous cities. San Gimignano was a highlight and don't forget to try the gelato!! He also made several other stops to take scenic family pics. The transportation was very comfortable and pickup was super easy. We will remember this trip and Francesco's kindness forever! He went above and beyond for us and it did not go unnoticed.

You are in good hands with Luigi! Very knowledgeable and friendly guide, and he created a great itinerary to explore Tuscany. Pick up in Florence went smoothly. We enjoyed all the stops and highly recommend booking this tour.

Professional and organised . The car was spacious and driver helpful . Can highly recommend using this service. Was fetched from airport in Bologna . Taken to the Ferrari museums at short notice . Used them from Bologna to Florence and Florence to Rome with stops in Tuscany and outlet malls .

Our family of five (mom, dad, 3young adult children) couldn't have asked for a more special day celebrating mom's birthday on our tour of these towns and the winery/lunch. Mom was in tears out of happiness as we savored each tasting and cours at lunch at the family run winery. Absolutely amazing day seeing each town and the Tuscan countryside. Francisco, was wonderful, funny, friendly, and kept us on track and well informed along the way. The van was very comfortable and clean, and we appreciated the water bottles offered as well. We had no problems meeting up with Francisco at our designated points and times. Excellent communication. We highly recommend this day trip. It was a highlight of our week in Florence. So glad we did it as just our family with a personal driver. Excellent service!

Luigi Napolitano “Gino” made our countryside tour of Chianti and San Gimignano unforgettable! Gino had a wonderful sense of humor with a delightfully contagious laugh. He started our day with a surprise visit to The Florence American Cemetery Memorial for my dad who is a big WW2 history enthusiast. Such a thoughtful and personal touch that we were not expecting. He gave us all the local history that we wanted without overwhelming us. I can not speak highly enough of Luigi, his kindness will remain in our hearts and memories of that perfect day in the countryside of Italy!

Francesco was our guide and became our friend! He gave us the most memorable experience of Tuscany that I envisioned of stories told to me by my Italian born father growing up. He gave us a personalized and detailed description of our journey through Tuscany and made it most memorable. He was prompt, professional and knowledgeable. We always felt he had our best interest at heart. I fell in love with the Italian countryside and it touched my soul beyond what I could ever imagine. Thank you for the most beautiful day Francesco, my Italian brother!

Luigi Napolitano made our day trip to Tuscany a complete joy! He was an informed guide and a great driver. Don’t hesitate to book this amazing day trip. He showed us places we didn’t know about and made so many recommendations. He went above what we were expecting. His pleasant disposition made us feel so comfortable and he is also a good photographer! Thank you again!

Francesco was amazing! He was kind, informative and timely. He allowed us to explore Siena and San Gimignano at our own pace and did not rush us. He was prepared to pick us up as soon as we let him know that we were ready. He even added a few surprises for us. Francesco was great and we would highly recommend doing a tour with him!

Gino was a wonderful guide! He took us to all of us to Sienna, San Gimignano and this wonderful quaint village with big medieval walls. The wine tour was the highlight! We had so much fun tasting different wines and we also learned about how wine was made. It was really interesting and the whole tour overall was fun, engaging and interesting!!

What a great day! Luigi picked us up in Florence in his extremely clean vehicle that fit all of our luggage. He arranged a great day starting with a quick visit to the Florence American Cemetery. We then headed to San Gimignano, an amazing family winery for lunch& & wine tasting and Siena. Luigi (also goes by Gino) arranged the entire trip. He is extremely knowledgeable and made sure we knew which shops, food, wine etc were “can’t miss”. He later dropped us off at our hotel in Tuscany. We felt extremely safe with his driving. I would highly recommend Luigi to anyone who wants to experience an amazing day in Tuscany with everything taken care of.

Luigi was amazing. He picked us up promptly on time and drove us all over Tuscany to Siena and San Gimingano and a few of our chosen wineries. He let us customize the tour as much as we wanted and was very knowledgeable and friendly. He had good insight and information when we wanted it but also let us explore on our own as well. He didn't rush us at all and really let us take in the sights. I would highly recommend booking with him. For the money, it was a great deal and was one of our favorite days of our entire Italy trip.

If you find yourself in Florence then this tour is a MUST. It was definitely one of the highlights of our time in Florence!! Not only did Gino take us through and to some of the most beautiful sites in Tuscany, but he provided us with a wealth of background knowledge that allowed us to appreciate this tour even more!!! Not to mention, he ended our tour with a most beautiful gesture…a bottle of Vernaccia di San Gimignano!!! A perfect time from beginning to end!!!
