Day tour Tuscany
 
We need recommendations on a day tour to Tuscany leaving out of Florence. We would prefer a group tour to make it more affordable, leaving in the morning and coming back late afternoon.

Thanks.

What would you expect to see and do on your tour? We can advise better if we know your interests.

We loved our cooking class and winery visit with www.accidentaltourist.com

They have other options, too, if you do not want the cooking class.

It would be our first trip to Tuscany, so we would like to get a general perspective of the region. We heard San Gimigniano is beautiful, as well as Siena and other small towns in the region. We would like mainly sightseeing, not winery/cooking/specialty tours.

Hi Clau - CAF Tours and SITA are 2 of the main coach tours companies in Florence.

Possibilities include:

- Siena & San Gimignano
- Pisa & Lucca
- Assisi & Perugia
- Chiantishire

These and other options are also possible by public transport. The choice is yours :)
