We had a great tour of multipuciano and Tuscany. Pay attention to meeting point we misunderstood and got left behind. Luckily we were able to take a taxi and catch up at the restaurant. Totally our fault. The guide was good.

Eduardo, our guide, was wonderful, he was informative, very knowledgeable, and he looked out for everyone in our tour group. He made sure no one gets left behind and ensured our safety on our walking tour. I wish he can be our guide in all our tours, we learned a lot. He also made it fun, interactive and engaging. As for our amazing driver, Enrico, he was truly“the gladiator”. All the best to both of them. I can recommend City Wonders for day excursions, they are organized, the bus was nice and clean.
