If you are in Florence for a few days do not miss getting out of town to these beautiful towns in Tuscany. Our guide from Florence was knowledgable and very entertaining- multi lingual and could also cater for the Spanish speakers on the tour. In Sienna, our guide was a local who gave a fascinating coverage of how this town is divided into areas, rivalry between areas and between Florence and Sienna as well. Optional is a traditional Tuscan lunch at a restaurant ( in a cellar dating back to 700's!). Highly recommended for the extra 15 euros.Traditional Tuscan bean soup, hand made local pasta, cheese, salamis and plenty on vino!

This was a FULL day tour and was excellent. Knowledgable local guide who provided historical and local information and spoke excellent English.. The three highlights, Park Guell, Sagrada Familia and Montserrat were outstanding. The trip out to Monserrat was beautiful. The tour is timed to hear the boys choir sing in the cathedral- stunning. Also included a lot of Barcelona city itself, like the Olympic stadium, the port, etc. Great value!

A bit of confusion when the office of the shuttle provider was unmanned. A phone call to their support and was told the driver was running late. I think this is standard with these cheaper transfers that pick up and drop off all over. Driver did arrive and from there all good. Great value, so you would expect a little wait.. A tip, ask at airport info desk where the tour operator office is. Tourist info had no idea, neither did anyone else. It is downstairs where the tour operator offices are.

Well organized. Guide was excellent and very entertaining. The tour was good because it orientated you around the Louvre which is HUGE. It takes you to the important exhibits and at the end of the tour you have the option to stay on and explore the museum by yourself. Easy, entry, no line, but do be prepared for the wait for security scanning. And nearing the end of the tour you have the option of leaving or doing the last 30 mins looking through Louis 14th's rooms. This was the highlight for me. Also, our guide, deborah was excellent at spotting pick pockets and warning us!

Fantastic tour. Great value for money. Well organised, punctual and a friendly English-Spanish guide. Some free time built in which was great. Pickup and drop off at hotels took less time than some other reviewers have said.
