San Luca Experience Tour sem fila e degustação de comida

Pros: The service provided by the tour operator was as promised with outstanding communication. They met us promptly and made sure we understood where to meet. The ride up to San Luca went well, and the site was beautiful. Fantastic views, lovely basilica. Cons: the “tour” on the ride had silly narration that could have provided much more information. It was also difficult to hear over the engine struggling up the hill. The drive down was rough because the driver continually swerved back and forth for most of the ride, despite complaints from many riders. I’m glad we made the journey to San Luca, definitely a must-see, but it wasn’t a pleasant ride.

Too much different the rates payed through Viator and the rates direct payable to the service provider. In the first case the rate is pretty much overestimating the value of the trip. Crowded train, bad audio quality, poor audio guide.

We had a great time on the little train learning about the area and arrived at the top of the hill to an Amazing church and view of the city.

Very enjoyable trip and a good start to a stay in Bolognaa. Don't worry if you can't hear the audio on the speakers on the way up because you get headphones on the way down. The food vouchers are good.

Trip was amazing, our guide Alessandro was a wealth of knowledge on the history of Tuscany. Lots of beautiful sites to see, the highlight for me was the farm tasting amount the beautiful Tuscan hills and Siena. Only 2 negative was there was no toilet facilities on the bus so free time exploring was taken up finding toilets, it was a long day and this would have helped. The other thing was I was told drop off and pick up would be the same point, which it wasn’t. We had to walk back to the main train station which as a solo traveler was disappointing. Everything else was 5* and well worth the money. Defiantly would book again on my next visit to Tuscany

If I could request a refund I would. We were a group of five thinking we should pay extra to get reserved seats and some typical food. We did not get reserved seats we were squashed into a place where they put the wheel chair. The typical food was vouchers which could be redeemed at various establishments! Visiting San Luca was good but the price we paid was far too much for what we received. Our advice to other people is to simply purchase the 13 Euro train ticket.

The Sanctuary of San Luca is beautiful and well worth the visit. The transportation was a bit uncomfortable however. You are packed into the little train like sardines. I would recommend going early to avoid the crowds so that you can ride more comfortably.

Good fun, the weather was perfect as we were shaded from the sun but not the views as we went through the city and up the hill to the church. The speakers were difficult to hear instead of the usual headphones but against the constant traffic noise of Bologna this was hardly surprising. For those unable or unwilling g to climb the near 700 steps to the top of the colonnade it was a good idea to provide this.

The small train allowed you to reach San Luca an about 30 min from the city center For the brave ones you can reach it on foot but it is long about 5 kilometers from below and it is only from the ascent Audio guide in several languages Helmets provided

Good little trip to the main attractions & the food vouchers are very helpful and they don’t expire which is great, means you can use them whenever around Bologna!
