Review of a 12-hour Tuscany day trip from Florence to Pisa, Siena, San Gimignano, and Chianti, with Siena tour, lunch, and wine tasting.
“I signed up for English speaking but the tour was combined with Spanish speakers. I find people on the bus are rude (talking)while the tour guide speaks the other language. I think because the guide needs to speak in two languages, they cut short the information given. Also 50 people is too many for a tour that contains a lot of walking. Speaking of that, we spent about 20 minutes each way in each stop walking from to/from parking to tour beginning. That’s 2 hrs wasted! Tour guides need to speak slower while speaking in other languages.”
Pick a city, a coastline or a kitchen.
