A fun way to spend an evening in Florence! The meeting spot was centrally located, and the cooking school was a 10 min walk away. The class was basic but I actually learned some interesting cooking techniques. And of course, dinner was delicious. Instructor Silvio was completely entertaining. I would highly recommend.

Such a great day!!! I was fortunate to have blue skies, and very warm weather for our tour in April. Spectacular weather. A terrific way to see lots of the region, in a short amount of time. Siena was amazing, and tour guide was funny and informative. San Gimignano was breathtaking. So charming. Pisa was nice... and I am glad I got to see it, but it was a bit underwhelming compared to the other stops on the tour. And as noted in almost all the reviews, the lunch was delicious and the setting completely picturesque. And finally -- Becky is awesome!!! If you have the opportunity to take the tour, and are lucky enough to visit the region with Becky, you will not be disappointed. She is full of great information. Well spoken and just fun to be around. We could not have had a nicer tour guide. So, 5-stars from me!! A fantastic tour, especially for the money. Enjoy.

If you want to hit the outlets, this is definitely the way to do it. A small, air-conditioned coach gets you to the Prada outlet, and The Mall and leaves you sufficient time at each to shop. And I think it's a much better solution than taking the public busses from Florence to The Mall. A quick, efficient and comfortable way to get from Florence to some of the best shopping I have seen in a LONG time!
