- Kurt CMalta25 contributionsThe Campanile is a very wonderful attraction in Florence. This is my second time that I climbed this campanile. Once again, it was filled with crowds, even though we booked the trip for first thing in the morning. The climb is a bit difficult but at the end very worth it. Highly recommended for tourist who enjoy history and beautiful views. I strongly recommend that you book for first thing in the morning as queues are then very long during peak season.Written June 12, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ChloeBristol, UK17 contributionsWe queued for around 45 mins to get in to the church for free. It was well worth it! There are side entrances with much shorter queues for those that have paid for to climb the dome or bell tower so make sure you get into the right one!Written April 17, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- FayeSheffield, UK9 contributionsTwo really solid rooms, perfect level of challenge for the two of us who have done lots of escape rooms before. The staff were really friendly and clearly loved escape rooms themselves so was great chatting to them before and after. Definitely recommend 👍🏻Written March 28, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Ashley3 contributionsThis experience was our favorite out of our several week vacation. We had the best time there. From learning all about truffles to exploring the lands to finding truffles to eating amazing food with truffles and wine, it was a great experience. The entire family is very friendly and informative and kind. Highly recommend this experience to everyone.Written August 24, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- krkamelNewport Beach, CA3 contributionsOur gelato tour was scheduled for a day when the temperature was predicted to be 102F. Our family plus two friends... who were dreading the adventure given the heat. And my goodness, did we all absolutely love the day. Between a morning departure, shaded country lanes and a downhill breeze, we were perfectly comfortable. Our guides, Chris Small and Francesco, were as delightful as they were knowledgable. They were brimming with fun facts, historic details, cultural insights and personal charm. In addition to biking and gelato, we enjoyed the towns (and tastes) of Castellina and San Gimignano. Truly, in our eyes, the outing was perfect. The guides, the coordination, the activities, the scenery -- perfect. We are longing for a re-do.Written August 27, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- SC1SoCalSoCal1 contributionPeggy arranged this trip for my birthday!! Best gift ever..we had a blast bouncing and buzzing along the vineyards and olive groves in Chianti! Highly recommend!!

- Jo BaronUnited Kingdom3 contributionsI’m still buzzing from our kayaking experience this week, lead by Pietro and Paola!!!! They gave us such a warm, friendly welcome and made us feel comfortable throughout the whole activity. Pietro lead us on the water and proved to be an incredible instructor, with the majority of us being first timers. He was calm, reassuring and knowledgable… and SO MUCH FUN. If you get an opportunity to experience any activity with these guys then take it- you won’t regret it.Written August 21, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Wade CWilmington, NC7 contributionsTHIS IS THE BEST EVER! Let me first say this experience was AMAZING! Francesco and his amazing crew were excellent they were so friendly and entertaining during setup of the balloon. It was very interesting to watch. In no time they had the balloon up and ready to fly.
Francesco was our pilot/operator and he was incredible he was all smiles and made the perfect amount of conversation and even taught us a few things along the way. His love and enjoyment of ballooning made us even more impressed and happy we chose him and his crew.
The views and flight it’s self were unreal. We got up in the air for sunrise and saw the most spectacular views of the Tuscan countryside and all the vineyards and villas perched in the mist with a beautiful sun highlighting them.
It was my wife and I’s first balloon experience and couldn’t have been happier. We flew to 3000ft!!!! It was incredible. I myself am not a small human and was extremely comfortable in the basket as we moved around a bit for photos and such.
Landing was a rush in a good way. We touched down with such great ease and waiting for us was the ground crew with a beautiful Prosecco and breakfast spread which we all thoroughly enjoyed after an hour of air time. The pastries were AMAZING.
I’m closing I highly recommend flying with this group they were above and beyond (no pun intended ) and worth it.

- Donald D11 contributionsWe opted for a 1 hour trail ride only since we had friends waiting for us back at the villa we were staying at who were NOT so adventurous. It was THEIR loss as these lovely horses were in excellent shape and gentle guided us throughout the ride. Although we remained at a walk the entire hour the trail included some steep climbs, descents, crossing both streams & dry riverbeds and crossing roads, however we were 5 novices who all felt safe and well cared for by both our gentle horses and friendly guide (Luca) who even trimmed away over growing thorns from the trail as he led us. There was a short but helpful instructional tutorial held in a ring by the stables given by Stefano…and then we were off through the beautiful Tuscan countryside. I am sure that pairing this with one of the many experiences offered would be well worthwhile, but we thoroughly enjoyed our trail ride and cherished this as one of the best experiences of our stay in Firenze! The staff was very flexible in accommodating us on relatively short (3 days) notice. We will definitely include this wonderful experience when we return!Written July 23, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
