Lovely tour of Volterrra - Anatolla was very engaging in sharing her knowledge of the history of Volterra. The food on the tour was excellent. The small group of 8 was perfect.

Great day in Lucca - Chiara was a wonderful guide. So personable and knowledgeable about art and history. We enjoyed our food stops. We arranged a private tour and it was perfect! I have waited a long time to visit Lucca and was not disappointed. We took the local train from Florence and it was easy.

Highly recommended walking tour! - A fabulous walking tour around Lucca. Sarina, our guide, was very knowledgeable and she understood my English sense of humour and answered all my questions. Very interesting with a few stops along the way for drinks and snacks. Well worth the money.

Lucca is delightful and delicious! - Our walking food tour with Sara in Lucca was our favorite experience in Tuscany so far. Sara shared so much history and current information about this fabulous city. We enjoyed the pace of the tour because we could look around at our surroundings as Sara was explaining and then she gave us time to see new things and ask questions about them. We never felt rushed. In addition the food was delicious and it had significance for the area - Chick pea pizza is unique and tasty! Grazie Sara! We loved your tour!
