You've dreamed about this for years.

Imagine: rolling hills the color of honey. A glass of Chianti in your hand. Nowhere to be. Nothing to rush.

This is the trip you promised yourself.

So you go looking online

Crowd of tourists queueing to board a packed coach at a tour bus terminal 01
The first result looks fine…

…until you read the small print: it's a coach.

 Over 80 people if it's full, 80 strangers to share your "special day" with 

You booked in English, but... the guide explains in English, then Spanish, then French.
 More time listening to other languages than your own

 You had a question, but it never reaches the guide — too many people's requests to manage

You walk over 20 minutes under the sun, at every stop. No coach fits through the old streets, they must stop outside the centre. 

"It's not for me" YOU THINK

 SO YOU try to TYPE "PRIVATE DRIVER"
 

IT LOOKS BETTER…

…until the bill starts to grow.

You pay thousands of euros  and you have to organize everything on your own

You want a  winery? Not included. A tasting? Extra. Lunch? On you

"See you back here in one hour" And then you're on your own in an unknown town

What can we do in this town?
Which shops are tourist traps to avoid?
What is the best viewpoint?

No one shows you the town, 
so confused, you just end up doing what everyone else is doing.

but YOU WANT more...

SPECIAL MEMORIEs WITH YOUR IMPORTANT PEOPLE

 SOMETHING OUTSIDE THE ORDINARY

because if everyone does it 
is it really special?



FOR THIS REASON we build a different day

Instead of a bus of 80 strangers
a Mercedes van — max 8 guests . Never more.
Instead of two or three languages
English only — with a real Italian accent.
INSTEAD OF WALKING MILES TO A BUS
free pickup,  right at your hotel.
Instead of a mile on foot from a far lot
dropped right at the entrance of every stop.
INSTEAD OF A DRIVER WHO WAVES GOODBYE IN THE TOWN
a host who walks every village with you.
Instead of paying at every single door
tasting, wineries & experiences — all included.

"Fantastic - David arrived right on time, and the drive up to San Gimignano was smooth and easy. We had a lovely cheese tasting experience in the town centre, and then headed to a winery called Tenuta Torciano. We had a gorgeous spread of local specialities, and the staff were lovely and very accommodating. We highly recommend for anyone looking for a day trip out of Florence!"

Beautiful trip to the countryside!

We loved our experience going to San Gimignano! The pick up from our hotel was easy and the drive there was comfortable. It was great walking around the city centre and trying the amazing Pecorino cheeses. David, our fantastic guide, then took us to Tenuta Torciano winery for a Tuscan fine dining experience, including local wine tastings with the resident sommelier, Sylvia. We highly recommend this personalized experience for creating special memories of time spent in Tuscany.

"Our day trip with Gabriele was a true highlight of our trip to Italy! The day he planned for us was such a lovely opportunity to see more of Tuscany and our experience making and tasting pecorino was so wonderful. Gabriele's thoughtful care was the perfect energy for our family and we loved spending the day with him. We ended the day with a wine tasting in the hills - delicious food and an opportunity to learn about the wine of the region. Highly recommend!!"

A must do day trip from Florence with excellent guide!

Gabriele was an excellent guide! He was super knowledgeable about the history of Tuscany and about the cheese, wine and gelato we tasted. He was also flexible, allowed for plenty of free time at each stop, and helped make the tour our own (we had previously booked tickets to climb the Duomo in Sienna and he modified the tour to accommodate!). We had private transportation and were picked up, and dropped off, right at our airb&b. San Gimignano and Sienna are absolute must see stops for anyone visiting Tuscany. My family and I had a wonderful day and I cannot recommend this excursion enough!

"We had an amazing time. Gabriele was an awesome guide. He was helpful, patient and really took the time to explain things to us. We never felt rushed and he took us to places that made us feel very welcome. The tour of San Gimignano was incredible. Such a beautiful place. The view & the atmosphere was something that we'll never forget. The wine tasting was such a cool experience. The wine & the food were so good. We didn't want to leave. He even helped us out with a (hard to get) dinner reservation as he was dropping us off."

Great Company

Our guide was lovely, very knowledgeable and passionate about the local history. The cheese tasting was delicious (truffle cheese yum!) and the wine tasting with antipasto was equally divine. The wine sommelier was just as passionate. We had a private tasting room where we could look over the beautiful vineyards. Glad we booked a small tour (ours was private as no one else booked in for the day!) that had the advantage of being picked up direct from our accommodation! We booked the morning tour but I'd recommend booking the afternoon tour to have dinner included. Thanks again Gabriel/David for such a great day

"It was a perfect tour of San Gimignano with some treats and a Cappuccino. We had free time there before we moved on the Tenuta Torciato winery. Both were excellent and so was our guide Gabriele."

"Ciao, I'm David — born in Florence, raised in Tuscany."

I spent years in Florence tourism,  long enough to see the gap between what the brochure promised and what the traveler got.

So I left the system and built a different kind of day
