Driver/Car Service Recommendation FCO- Pienza

Can anyone recommend a reliable and somewhat reasonable car or shuttle service from FCO to Pienza? We will be arriving at around 10:30 am in early June and for several reasons need to pursue this option.
Grateful for any recommendations.
Thanks very much-

I have no personal experience, but here is one service that gave an instant quote of 300 euros for 2 passengers with 3 pieces of luggage.

Just curious. What will you do for transportation once in Pienza? Buses are limited.

Thank you JEAN And I will check with them immediately. The quotes I am getting from some of the tour-based companies noted on trip advisor are upwards of €440,so any personal insights are greatly appreciated.

Dayle I've posted for advice within the last few days on other aspects of this trip planning, with great success, and while I have done many family type trips in Italy, France, England and last year with extreme help on Fodors in Amsterdam and Bruges , I have always done quite well and independently with trains etc.
For many reasons, this year we need help, and will be absolutely carless. This is not an option for us So have enlisted my close friend, who ironically I met here in the forums in2006 for help. We are together planning a seven night trip that will include Montepulciano, Cortona and as many towns and experiences and experiences as possible in between and ending in Florence . Will be using a variety of sources to get around. Not ideal by any means, but I know (hope) it will be wonderful.

So in large part the getting to Pienza from Rome leg as economically as possible in a car transport is extremely desirable ! Thanks very much guys and if there are any other suggestions for drivers would be grateful

Jean, I just checked their site and you were absolutely right about the low price - wondering how I can vet the reliability of the service as it is reasonable.
