Itinéraire
Notre sympathique chauffeur-guide parlant anglais viendra vous chercher à votre hôtel à Florence pour commencer votre journée en vous rendant à PISA, une ville calme et agréable rappelant le passé de la République de Pise. Le système fluvial de Pise l'a empêché de décliner vers la fin de l'empire romain. Nous nous concentrerons sur la Piazza dei Miracoli (place des miracles), site du patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO. Le Duomo est une cathédrale médiévale aux portes de bronze massives et son plafond doré, sa chaire médiévale et son intérieur en marbre noir et blanc sont à couper le souffle… Le bâtiment de forme ronde à proximité est le baptistère, avec une fonte octogonale contrastant et un grand espace intérieur rond . La tour penchée était le campanile (clocher de la cathédrale) a commencé à se pencher peu de temps après son achèvement en 1173.
Après un arrêt d’environ une heure, nous partirons pour SAN GIMIGNANO. Fondée au IIIe siècle avant notre ère par les étrusques, la ville a été fondée. Elle est réputée aujourd'hui pour son vin (Vernaccia) et son architecture. San Gimignano est souvent appelée «la ville des tours», qui a su préserver 14 tours datant de l’époque médiévale… vraiment un décor de cinéma! Profitez d'une promenade informative avec notre chauffeur dans les rues étroites de cette belle perle médiévale.
Le moment est venu de nous rendre à SIENA, mais en chemin, nous souhaitons inclure un arrêt rapide à MONTERIGGIONI, l’un des établissements muraux les plus connus et classiques de la Toscane. Ce village a été construit sur une colline par les Siennois entre 1213 et 1219 pour donner sur l'ancienne voie romaine, la Via Cassia.
Le centre historique de Sienne a été déclaré site du patrimoine mondial par l'UNESCO. Sa fierté, dominée par la cathédrale gothique (Duomo) et l'aiguille crispée de la Torre del Mangia, et pourtant la Piazza del Campo en forme de coquillage, attire probablement le plus d'attention et de gloire. On l'a vu dans des films, des photographies et des campagnes publicitaires. Les briques recouvrent les terres en pente douce et témoignent de nombreux événements historiques, mais le plus intriguant est la course hippique «Palio», l’une des choses les plus importantes dans la vie d’un natif de Sienne. Sur la place, les 2 juillet et 16 août, il y a une course de chevaux à cru qui avait été enregistrée pour la première fois en 1283, mais qui pourrait avoir ses origines dans l'entraînement militaire romain.A ne pas manquer le Palazzo Pubblico (hôtel de ville) qui est une grande œuvre de l'architecture et abrite également un important musée de Sienne.
Sur le chemin du retour à Florence, vous aurez la chance de visiter une partie de la charmante région de Chianti, caractérisée par des collines onduleuses parsemées de vignes, de cyprès, d’oliviers et de petites villes. Visitez Panzano et Greve, deux des plus belles villes du Chianti. Si le temps le permet, arrêtez-vous dans une entreprise vinicole pour déguster d'excellents vins et l'huile d'olive extra vierge. Revenez à Florence dans l'après-midi avec le ventre plein, le cœur joyeux et de bons souvenirs. …

This was an amazing experience to be able to see other parts of Tuscany and get a break from the 15 000 steps a day. Being that it was private, we were able to customize the trip being that my wife's pregnant. He drove us everywhere we needed to go to make things easy as well as made great recommendations of must see places and Gelato stands.
Thank you for your kind words and for thinking of us. We are very pleased to hear that you appreciated the possibility of customizing any itinerary around each guest’s specific preferences and needs. It is certainly the best way to see and enjoy only the places and experiences you are truly interested in! Thank you again for choosing us, and we hope to welcome you back to Tuscany someday… this time with a stroller! Best wishes!
An incredible day visiting Siena, San Gimignano and Pisa for 8 of us. Loved the flexibility and low stress of private driver.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a lovely review. We truly appreciate your kind words and are very happy that you enjoyed your experience with us. We hope to welcome you back to Tuscany again in the future!
We enjoyed our day in Tuscany. Alex, our driver, was on time, friendly, knowledgeable and made the experience to our liking. We went first to the Michelangelo plaza, across the river, where we had not been yet for a great view of Florence. We chose not to go to Pisa, for more time in the Chianti area and wine tasting. We drove to Monteriggiani, a small walled town, which had a recent restoration. Throughout the day, all buildings were a way to feel how itight have been in medieval times. Then was Siena, with its massive, unfinished, cathedral, and the unique shell shaped plaza. We went wine tasting and lunch at Corbacci, an exclusive experience, as we get to pair wine with meal. Our host Agnes guided us through the tasting and with a passion for wine. The scenery of this place is all we have in mind when we think Tuscany. Lunch was great, no surprise. We left and headed.to St Gminiano, another well preserved medieval town, though with a different flare. Alex drove thru the countryside for more spectacular views. Then back to Florence, already planning our next visit.
Hi, and thank you for this wonderful review. You have no idea how much it means to us to receive such kind compliments from our guests. As you know, all of our itineraries are flexible, so if you have any preferences, just let your driver know and they will do their best to accommodate your wishes and make your experience even more enjoyable. Thank you again for your kind words. We hope to welcome you back to our beautiful Tuscany very soon!
We splurged on a private car for our day trip from Florence to see the highlights of Tuscany. Massimo picked us up at our hotel and provided the perfect combination of structured and free time to explore Siena and other gems. Definitely worth the extra cost to have a car and driver to ourselves.
Hello Mark, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are very happy to know that you appreciated your driver and the itinerary we prepared for you. It means a lot to us to hear that you enjoyed your experience. So, what can we say… come back soon—you know where to find us! Thank you again!
Alex was phenomenal! He picked us up and took us to 3 medieval towns and 2 wineries. His knowledge of the area was quite extensive! He was really kind, patient and had the best recommendations both along our route and in Florence. We sincerely enjoyed our day with him and would book with him again if we had more time! Thank you to the coordinator Max for all of the communication leading up to our day. 10000/10! Highly recommended!

Massimo was wonderful! He was so knowledgeable and was the perfect driver for our day in Tuscany. He got us right from our hotel. Easy to communicate with. It was great because we could customize our day to fit exactly what we wanted. It was a day that my wife and I will never forget. Worth every penny. You will not be disappointed. Trust me.
