What people love about Tuscany Tours for Seniors
- Rome and Tuscan Highlights
The optional first meal at vineyard was a little pricey but the food was good there was free flowing house made wine that was good Nd the dancing party atmosphere was fun worth the expense. The be my guest dinner at another family owned vineyard was great. The food was delicious and again plenty of wine. The experience shopping and cooking with the chef near Florence was amazing. They had us make ravioli, salad and an appetizer. The wine tasting was delicious and they had unique sparkling wines. Luckily we did do all the cooking. The food was fantastic and the assortment was amazing. The best part of the trip were the people and these events. The scenery was beautiful, the cities and town architecture was great. Plenty of time on the bus but this trips offers a chance to stay behind if you like. The weather was hot and sunny I wish I booked in Sept to November but really enjoyed the trip. I was disappointed that the hotel didn't have a pool.
- Tuscan Treats
A great tour leader, supported by a reliable driver and an great effort to meet the needs of the group. A very rewarding experience.
- Gourmet Tuscany
Ursula was a fabulous guide. They were a variety of day tours and extras to keep my interest. Staying in Montecatini was an excellent choice. there was lots to do there.
