Things to do in  Tuscany

Great experience and would recommend to a friend. It was much easier than trying to see Tuscany on my own. The group was a mix of ages from 19 year olds to those in their late 30s.

Traveling ro the countryside to visit the most memorable historic towns of Tuscany. Best way to see all within one day and even get a chance to do wine tasting.

Fabio was a fantastic guide with lots of knowledge. A great tour for people who want to see Tuscany. Beautiful towns, incredible countryside and ended with a brilliant wine tasting. Highly recommend!

Eduardo was an exceptional guide and the tour itself was so much fun. Wineries, scenery, snacks - everything was perfect. A great way to see Tuscany

We had a wonderful time buzzing through the backroads and hills of Tuscany on an especially beautiful late summer day. Great guide. Great host. Fun ride. Good time! Strongly recommend. 😃

It is one of the best experiences of my Italy trip. Olivia was great guide. Recommend to anyone who want to see the best of Tuscany region

Christian and Alec made this such a unique experience getting to see all of the vintage vespas and fiats and their knowledge they shared with us on the history. I was nervous to ride at first, but they helped make sure you were comfortable and did a test ride before going out on the streets of Tuscany. Would highly recommend this tour!!

We loved the tour guide Constantino, and were very pleased with the whole experience. The bus was clean with a skilled driver too. All of the stops on the tour were lovely, with the perfect amount of time spent at each place. A great value to see so much of beautiful Tuscany in one day!

Great tour, would highly recommend! Worth the money. Guide was very good. Got to see lots of Tuscany :)

The whole tour was amazing. Wonderful sights and wonderful staff. Special thanks to Lucas who went above and beyond to help us get back to our hotel. We felt the tour had the right amount of details and free time. We never felt rushed and enjoyed all three locations. Getting between the different stops was also an incredible chance to see the Tuscany countryside. Great tour with a friendly and accomodating team. Highly recommend.

Big shoutout to Martina (and our driver John!) for a wonderful tour! The 4-wheel bus was so fun to ride on, the wineries were absolutely gorgeous (despite the rainy gross weather we had that day). Such a cool way to see the countryside of Tuscany while enjoying some incredible wines. We ended up buying a bottle and some olive oil and the first stop and even buying a case of wine to send home from our last stop. Martina is super knowledgeable about the wine and was able to answer all of our questions. The group size was also nice and not too big. 10/10 would recommend this tour and thank you again!

Highly recommended! Very well paced tour, great balance between guided sections, solo exploration and scheduled activities. Olivia was wonderful, great way to spend a day in Tuscany :)

Thoroughly enjoyed this day trip, and our guide Ivan was very pleasant, speaking in both Spanish and English. Both San Gimignano and Siena are "must visits" as part of any trip to Tuscany. We will probably spend more time in Siena during our next trip to Italy. There is so much to see and take in. The lunch / wine tasting at the winery was very lovely and the wine was exceptional. (Sent half a case home.) Overall I would say that this trip was worth every penny, and I would recommend it to anyone that might listen.

This wine tasting experience is a must if you are visiting Florence/Tuscany region! Our tour guides, Violeta and Antonio, were amazing and made it a really fun experience. The owners of the wineries were knowledgable on the wine making process and it was really great getting to visit highly rated vineyards in the Tuscany countryside. We had an amazing time getting to meet other couples from all over in a small group setting and even chose to hangout with everyone afterwards! This experience was the highlight of our trip!

Mattia and the Keys to Italy company gave us a tour throughout the Valdorcia region of Tuscany that we'll never forget. The tour included 3 stops: (1) a morning wine tasting in the village of Montepulciano, (2) lunch at a restaurant in the small village of Pienza, (3) and an afternoon winery tour and tasting in Montalcino. We left at 8AM and returned to Florence around 7:30PM. You spend quite some time in the van, but you are coming from Florence and covering a lot of ground. Worth it. All of our hosts were gracious, spoke great English, were happy to have us, and provided much more than they needed to. If you are into Montepulciano and Montalcino wines, this is the best you'll get considering how much distance you cover in one day. Everyone was knowledgeable, down to earth, proud of the product/service they provide, and left an impression on our group. We were a group of 4 (two couples). Highly recommend and this is a great / unique alternative to Chianti.

We loved Lucca! It was one of our most unexpected and favorite places in Tuscany. This bike tour was the perfect introduction to the city. We got to see a lot on the bikes and riding on the city walls was a highlight. Chiara was personable, punctual, communicative, upbeat and flexible. She had a passion for the city and it was exciting and engaging to hear the history while we saw the sights. I’m a gelato obsessed person and the greateria she took us to was one of my favorites in Tuscany. I wouldn’t miss this tour. Thanks!

Our tour was with Tomasso who was so knowledgeable, kind & patient! We were limited physically and Tomasso adapted to us from the first minute. He shared the Tuscany he knows & loves & we got to see some of the most wonderful places that we had not seen in any tourist’s guide. A truly exceptional experience! I can’t thank Marco & Tomasso enough. They made our Tuscany experience perfect! Grazie 🙏🏻

First thing you need to know is that this tour is a LONG day and you should be aware of that. Having said that, this tour was AMAZING. Absolutely your best option out of the few day trips to Cinque Terre being offered on Viator. I did the research on all of them and this is the best. If you are on the fence, don't be. There is a reason this tour is highly rated compared to the others. This tour company knows what they are doing and cares about you and making your experience the best it can be. We also used this company for their Tuscany in a Day Tour which was equally amazing. We chose the non hiking version but always had the option to join the hike it we wanted. The hike part was only between 2 towns and not all of them so don’t expect to hike them all, that would take far to long to do in one day realistically. You get a hike preview in Corniglia when you hike up a lot of stairs. To stat, there was about 1.5 hour bus trip to La Spezia from Florence train station where you will catch the train to Manarola, the first town stop. You have time to explore a bit and take photos before you move to the next town on the train. Manarola was beautiful and one of my favorites. Next we stopped at Corniglia. This is the only town up on a cliff. You had the option to climb the stairs to the town or to take a shuttle from the station to the top. Be warned that the shuttle is a small "bus" with limited seats and mostly standing. It was hot and uncomfortable, especially in the COVID times but if you don't want to climb the stairs this is the only option. At the top, if you chose the lunch option with the tour (we did not) you will go to a restaurant with a great view over the water. We were able to explore Corniglia and find a restaurant for lunch. There are lots of little bars where you can get a drink and some food. We chose a place in the little town square but I would recommend not eating in the restaurants in the square. There are much better options before and past the square. Do some checking on google maps before you get there so you don't run out of time. The hiking group hiked between Corniglia and Vernazza. We did not do this and took the train. Because of this we had much more time to walk around Vernazza. In my opinion, Vernazza was the most touristy of the towns. It was very pretty but it was still crowed. We had time to sit down by the “harbor” and enjoy the sun and watch the swimmers. Next, we went to Monterosso. This was a really pleasant little town with good shops and room to breath. We had a little more than 1 hour here which was perfect amount of time. From Monterosso, we caught the ferry boat back to Riomaggiore where we had a short while to take few phots and grab some quick souvenirs. The Ferry was great as we got to see all 5 towns from the water. It was a little far out to take great photos with your phone but if you have a better camera with a lens you will do great. This was getting later in the day, and we had to catch the train back to La Spezia to get the bus back to Florence. On the way back we were able to see the mountains where Carrara Marble comes from as we passed by on the highway. Pretty cool. The tour started about 7:30 am and ended around 9pm so it is a full day for sure but it was so worth it. It took the hassle out of getting to Cinque Terre from Florence and back and navigating between the towns on the train. Sometimes it’s just nice to have someone else worry about the logistics. Our tour guide was truly awesome considering he had to keep track of both groups (hiking and non hiking) and keep everyone on time but also give us the time and freedom to explore. He was also full of great information and always was looking out for you to be having the best time., Don't hesitate to book this one if you want to see Cinque Terre from Florence and only have 1 day to do it. Make sure to give yourself a leisure day the day after to recover and relax. You will deserve it. Walkabout Tours is a great company and I think other tour operators could learn a lot from them on how to conduct quality tours.

Fantastic way to see Tuscany. Stefan was excellent host and made the day very enjoyable. He was very attentive to the whole group and made it seem like private tour.

This is a must do tour! This was the best experience I've ever had by far (If I could rate it 10 stars, I would)! I've travelled to many countries around the world and done many tours, but nothing came close to this one! Cinque Terre is so beautiful, pictures don't do it justice. It's 5 beautiful towns with colorful houses near the water, and it's so magnificent! I chose to do the hike, and I really enjoyed it and would highly recommend it to anyone that is able to do intermediate hiking (there's elevation, rocky terrain, and lots of steps), the views were incredible! I think the most amazing part of this tour were the tour guides - Alberto and Mano! They went out of there way to make each and every person on the tour enjoy the experience. They also had a great sense of humor and were very knowledgeable about the area (and also great suggestions where the best spots are to take pictures). At the end of the tour they went around to everyone asking us if we need help with the rest of our Italy trip (i.e recommendations for restaurants, what to do in other cities, or any other questions we had). They were both so kind and made visiting cinque terre even more amazing! When I go back to Florence I hope to redo this trip, and I also hope to do the other tours this company offers in the Tuscany region!
