I am travelling a lot and I know how important is to have a professional but a carrying guide also when you choose to visit a place this way. Roberto surprised us in all possible ways from beginning of the tour up to the end. You can tell he is a well-informed person, he knows how to keep your interest peaked and to introduce you in the world of Tuscany and its history until you become part of it. The soundtracks he used, his speeches and the care he showed when was about our needs made my day. This is the way a quide should behave and organize a tour!
Gabriele the driver was also very kind, on the way to our destinations he stopped the bus few times to let us enjoy better the views and Val d’Orccia atmosphere even if the weather didn’t help, it was raining all day long!:))
At the end of the tour Roberto took us to visit one small wine cellar belonging to a family business with a long history (around 27 generations if I remember well) in wine business and that made us feel very relaxed trying a good wine in such an intimitate atmosphere. My favourite one was Brunello di Montalcino riserva 2013 - Cantina Padelletti, all are good ones but if you like something, try to buy from them otherwise you may regret ot later on!:))
I hope I will travel with his team in the future and discover more of italian heritage, its medieval towns, bohemian landscapes and beautiful people. I highly recommend them and this part of Tuscany is the most beautiful when it comes to nature…and wine of course!:))

Very easy to book, a little difficult at first to find sign in place at the bus station but overall a very enjoyable coach trip .
