Semi-Private Exclusive Pisa and Florence Sightseeing no more than 8 passengers

We had a day ported in Florence on a cruise and we decided to take this tour as it was affordable and offered stops to see Pisa and Florence. We really enjoyed every stop on the tour and got to meet the people who were also on our cruise. Pick up and drop off was super easy. If you are hoping to have time to climb the Tower of Pisa, you will likely not have time on this tour. We were in Pisa for about 35 minutes, and the climb takes about 40 minutes the guide said, if you climb very quickly. Overall a great way to spend our time on our Florence day ashore.

We had a wonderful tour visiting Pisa and Florence thanks to our friendly tour guide and driver Laura from Diverinrome who was very professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. She not only provided substantial information of the points of interest but also went extra miles to show us the beauty of the fields of Tuscany. It was quite an unforgettable cultural experience immersed in the grandiose art, architecture, and history of this beautiful country with the assistance of our lovely guide Laura!

The tour got off to a rough start, but Laura and another lady from the company did a great job they got me where I needed to go! Laura was very personable and friendly, I really enjoyed the trip and the style she brought to it!

Although our guide was friendly and enthusiastic, she failed to provide us much in the way of direction--or information on this trip. We were in a group of 7 and my husband and I were in the last row of the van. Despite the fact that we have no auditory issues,neither of us could hear what she was saying during the commentary from our seats. Our friends who were seated ahead of us did not have this problem, but for us-- between the road noise and the fact that she did not use a microphone, two people with normal hearing, missed most of what she said on this tour simply because we climbed in the backseat at the start of the day. We were dropped off for a brief photo shoot in Pisa (which, by the way, is not worth the 45 minute drive from the Naples cruise port if your time is limited as ours was) just to take one of those mandatory touristy pictures. We then proceeded in the opposite direction to to see Florence which is really brimming with important sights. Our guide stopped the van in a nondescript rest area--the purpose of which was never communicated to us. Later on when we asked her where we would find the bronze statue of David, she said--"Oh that was why we stopped before! No one in our group had any idea, so this was not an issue of us not hearing her, it was the fact that she forgot to tell us why we were pulling over. Once we were left in Florence, we asked her where the original David was housed. She told us it was in a museum and gestured vaguely into the city. Simply providing us with a map or even written directions--or an address would have made sense to us. For those who have limited time to see this region, consider another tour that includes "skip the lines" for Duomo and Florence museums as this tour was simply transportation and valuable time will be wasted searching for key locations.

Our tour guide, Valerio, was knowledge and very helpful. He went out of his way to make sure that everyone was accommodated.

Our van was very comfortable. Our driver was very informative and knowledgeable. He was able to maneuver the van into some very tight spaces so we could see the sights up close. We really enjoyed our day at Pisa and Florence because of this tour package.

This was a great way to go we had a wonderful driver Alberto who was very knowlegable and went out of his way for us. My hubby has a bad knee so Alberto drove us to the sites and waited for us then took us to the next site and once again waited whilst the other couple walked around to the sites and picked up at a designated spot, great job Alberto.

Lisa the guide and driver was excellent She was reliable kind and very nice on time caring cool knowledgeable and responsible

Our driver was polite and got us close to our sites, however he dropped us off at various sites and we were mostly on our own.

Marco was our driver and he picked us up at the port in Florence where our Oceania Cruise Ship was docked. He was friendly and spoke good English and shared a lot of history about the areas we drove through as we travelled approx. 1 hour and 15 minutes to our first destination in Pisa, where we took some photos, then headed to Florence. He took us to the heart of Florence for us to explore the city, shop and have lunch. The van was a bit small for 8 passengers, but we made the best of it. Overall it was a very enjoyable experience and got a lot of great photos! The total tour lasted about 8 hours, however 2 1/2 to 3 hours was traveling to and from the port to our destinations.
