Florence & Pisa VIP Day Trip: Tuscan Gems from Rome

Good experience. Travel guides were very helpful and friendly. I will recommend agency to my friends

Buckle up — it’s going to be a loooong day! The ride itself is pretty quiet, which is great if you need to catch up on sleep (or practice your “I’m totally awake” tourist face). Thankfully, there’s a coffee stop to keep spirits high and eyelids open! ☕ Our guide Stacey was an absolute gem — friendly, patient, and full of fun facts. Roberto, our driver, was the kind of guy who just makes the day smoother without saying much — calm, kind, and always on time. Since it’s a small group tour, you end up bonding with your fellow travelers — even if you don’t speak the same language. Smiles and snacks are universal! Pisa was short but packed with history — plus the mandatory “holding up the tower” photo, of course. Florence was the star of the show! Our local guide Giovanni had us walking through time like we were extras in a Renaissance movie. Even the rain couldn’t spoil the vibe — if anything, it added a dramatic touch to the experience. Long day? Definitely. Worth it? Absolutely. I’d do it again — just with an extra espresso next time! ☕✨

Our tour ended up being around 13 hours we had wonderful guides and a driver saw all the highlights of Florence and Pisa none of the fluff. We were even able to order our lunch ahead of time so that we didn’t have to wait and was able to spend more time in Florence.

It was an amazing trip except it started raining hard on us when ww got to Pisa. We are all drenched. Can hardly hear the tour guide as well, would be nice if he would have mic and us headphones like the Florence walking tour and gallery. The drive from Rome is 3 hrs with a lot of bumpy roads as well. We felt that tourguide should have mentioned that there is a market in Florence for food options instead of just offering a reservation on a sit down resto. Big price difference and we all felt we could have enjoyed the variety and town feel food from the market plus way cheaper. But overall, tour was organized.

Better way to go if you have a small group and want to know more about the areas you’re visiting. Great tour. Risshii was the best!

Fabio and JB were the best tour guides. Guides us on every place we have went for this tour. Brought our items we purchase back in the car so we do not carry it everywhere. The restaurant they recommended was the best, if he ever offer a restaurant in Florence take it and order the steak. You will not regret it, Fabio and JB treated us like a VIP. If they offer JB and Fabio for the rest of our tours. We will do it again, I will not want to have a different tour guide other than JB and Fabio. If the management of JB and Fabio ever see this, they both deserve a raise.

We were so happy we chose this semi-private tour with Welcome Italy to Florence and Pisa from Rome. The tour was well planned and well worth it. We had enough time to tour Florence/ Pisa, and had a delicious lunch in Florence. Theresa and Roberto #2, took good care of us, like you would if you have a family visiting. I can’t wait to see them again when I return to Rome.

This was by far the best tour during our trip to Rome. Teresa and Roberto were exceptional. They were attentive to all our needs from beginning to end. Providing information when needed and quiet time if necessary during long ride. Teresa especially was very helpful both in Pisa and Florence which were both beautiful. Highly recommend this tour

While the drive was long the entire trip was worth it! The beauty is spectacular. Pisa was self guided which was great and Florence with the tour guide was great. Very informative.

Can be very crowded. Difficult to hear walking guide due to lots of background noise . Head phones would be helpful
