Juliano was great! He’s a pleasure to be around and took us to some special places I wouldn’t have found otherwise! We’d definitely use them again!

Itinerary
starting from Livorno we will reach Pisa in about 30 minutes. and the first stop of about 10 minutes will be here. Knights' Square is the old political center where the knights and templars of Santo Stefano resided. It is home to the current Pisa Normal School
Piazza dei Miracoli is the spiritual center of the city of Pisa. Inside it is possible to visit the Cathedral, the Baptistery, the Camposanto and the famous LEANING TOWER.
starting from Pisa we will reach Florence in about 1 hour and 20 minutes. the stop in this stage will be approximately 20 minutes. Piazzale Michelangelo Is the most beautiful panoramic point in Florence.
The neighborhood is famous both for the church which houses the tombs of Italian glories (Michelangelo, Dante, Macchiavelli) and the ancient center of leather workers' production. The church ticket costs 8€ for person. generally we stop of about 30 minutes in this square
Michelangelo's David? restaurant? Both? at this point in the tour we have four options. 1) that you have independently booked the academy museum to see Michelangelo's David (if you want to combine it with this tour we always recommend making the reservation between 12 and 1.30 pm onwards, always using the official Firenze Musei website) and therefore we take you there 2) we book you and take you to a typical restaurant/trattoria 3) we do both 4) we don't do anything of what we just described and we take you to the next stop. we want to remind you that we are flexible and our intent is to try to satisfy your wishes based on your preferences.
Strategic point heart of the historic center where we leave you free to see all the nearby monuments such as Piazza del Duomo where is the Cattedrale Santa Maria del Fiore with the Giotto's bell tower and the baptistery , Piazza del Mercato Nuovo with the famous golden wild boar, Piazza della Signoria with its wonderful statues (included the Michelangelo's David replica) and the famous Ponte Vecchio plenty of jewelers.
on the way back we will make a detour through the hills of Tuscany (also a feasible option on the outward journey) and in about 90 minutes we will be back at the Port. this option is also customizable, if you don't like curves very much or you're not interested we can go back to the classic route

We had a wonderful day in Toscana. Our guide, Guliano, was outstanding. He contacted me right away and guided me on needed tickets, so we were completely prepared for the day’s activities. He was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining!
Giuliano was awesome, he was very smart and recommended many places which were unique. He was able to get us into a restaurant that was impossible for us to reserve. We were looking for a specific cigar and he called many stores and was able to find a store for us. I strongly suggest using his services
Giuliano was phenomenal. We had to pivot our agenda due to a medical emergency and he was patient with our delay, kind, and even helped translate for us in the hospital! The modified tour of Pisa and Livorno was perfect for us. We appreciate his flexibility and hospitality. He was an angel sent to help us when we needed it most.
We had such a wonderful experience with Make My Day. Everything was organized beautifully and made our Florence andTuscany day feel effortless and special. The team was professional, responsive, and helped create a romantic experience that fit perfectly into our honeymoon. The winery visit and lunch were memorable, and all the planning and coordination made the day smooth and stress-free. Thank you for helping make this part of our trip so special highly recommend!
Giuliani was an excellent guide - pointing out highlights along the way. We had an amazing lunch before touring Florence and ended with his secret gelato place. All wonderful!
Giuliano "made our day" and made our first trip to Italy so memorable! We were so comfortable and never felt rushed! We learned so much from the time we left in the morning to when we came back to the ship! Guiliano is so professional and knowledgeable about Livorno, Florence, and Pisa and other regions in Italy! This was our first tour with our very own driver, with a great sense of humor that we all enjoyed. Coming from a small island in Canada, we certainly appreciated Guiliano’s sense of humor and how he made all of us feel safe!. Giuliano recommended a great restaurant with authentic Italian dishes and wine! We went for gelato and you guessed it..so yummy! I highly recommend Guiliano for this tour! The day was spectacular! Thank you so much Giuliano! We hope to cross paths again when we return to your beautiful country!
We had several last minute plans and to say that they went above and beyond to accommodate and outright make them happen, is an understatement. They certainly have plenty of connections to make sure they can fill in some blanks if there are any issues that come up and they were very professional and helpful about it. We were very thankful that we connected with them for our tours!
Our tour guide,Giuliano, was fantastic! He picked us up from the cruise port and made sure we were on time for all of our tickets, climbing the leaning at 9 and the academy museum at 13:00. He gave us insight into each location and took us to a fantastic restaurant for lunch. Then he made sure we were back at the cruise port right in time. I highly recommend this tour if you are in port for the day!
Our guide Giuliano was great! We booked a day trip and he showed us everything! He was very knowledgeable and we all had a good time while learning a lot.
This was our 3rd Viator excursion for this trip and by far the worst. Let me preface this with the other two blew us away. They were incredible from start to finish. I wish more people would write a review of this type of excursion as we didn’t know what to expect. The driver was very nice but it was definitely on his agenda not ours. If we were to do Florence or Pisa again, we would not book a private transfer. The private transfer didn’t save us any time or freedoms other than a smaller bus and is very pricey. Save a lot of money and take the train or go with the cruise line.
Giuliano was such an incredibly fun and knowledgeable guide! He truly opened up my mind to a new understanding of Italy.. without his guidance we wouldn’t have fully understood the history, impact and culture of Florence. He was so patient with us while we took a million photos 😂 He delivered beyond expectations for us & we got the full Tuscan experience! I’m definitely coming back to Tuscany and using his guide services again! Grazie grazie Giuliano! We love you!
Private tours are the way to go. The tour was excellent. My guide was Giuliano. We arrived at Pisa early and escaped the crowds which allowed for a thorough tour of the leaning tower, Cathedral, and surrounding town. The visit to Florence was equally rewarding with Giuliano covering the history and culture of the city and area. During the tour chose a visit to the Uffizi Museum of Art which should not be missed and ample time was allowed for hitting the high-lights of this fantastic house of historical art and culture. Giuliano suggested an excellent, non-tourist, restaurant for an amazing lunch with a stop up the street for real made-on-site Italian gelato. Giuliano is a real conversationalist adding antidotal stories at each stop. I not only recommend this tour, but I recommend asking specifically for Giuliano as your driver/guide.
From pre-planning with Ubaldo to the tour day with Giuliano, it was a fabulous experience. MMDII was extremely responsive and a great help in customizing our plans for the day prior to the trip. Spending the day with Giuliano was an absolute treat. His humor, knowledge, flexibility, and passion made our time in Pisa/Florence so memorable. We still talk about stories from our day together. I highly recommend booking MMDII (and Giuliano as your driver)!
We had an absolutely amazing time on our tour with Giuliano! He was a terrific host. He was very knowledgeable, considerate, conversational and entertaining (he even sang for us!). Giuliano was very prompt and made sure we were back to our cruise ship in plenty of time. On our tour of Tuscany, Giuliano took us to Pisa, Lucca, and to a beautiful winery where we had lunch with a wine paring. It was fabulous! We had one request and that was to see the home of Andrea Bocelli, and boy did Giuliano deliver!! Not only did we see his home and beach resort, we met and spoke with Andrea Bocelli! I would highly recommend Giuliano as your driver and host of Florence and Tuscany. It was a memorable experience!!
Very professional driver. Great tips, clear directions and flawless Guide. Top restaurant and typical dishes.
Giuliano organized a tour with 3 vans for the whole family. We were 17 people and optimized the time on our visit to Pisa and Florence. It certainly made our day trip experience from Livorno as we were coming on a cruise. even with an accident on the road, drivers chose an alternative route that allowed us to arrive on time and continue our trip. without hesitation, 100% we will repeat. thank you.
