Amazing tour guide Liz brought Tuscany alive with her knowledge, professionalism and humour. Time spent on the bus was minimal and we had a lot of free time to explore our destinations on our own. Accomodation was great taking into account some of the tiny villages we stayed in, a few of our group complained about the hard beds but I found all accommodations to be very clean and comfortable. The activities included in the tour were unique and fun, we found that at 7 days was not too long and in fact didn’t want the fun to end
Loved that the tour group was small in comparison to others. Easier to get to know people and stay together when doing tours.
I thought the price was a little high but we did stay at very nice, clean hotels and the extras that were included-wine tasting with lunch included, boat tour, train connection-were worth the price.
Tuscany is must see and the tour covered so much of it.
Refer to my above comments
Sub standard accommodation and our timetable could of been better scheduled.
Our last night in Fattoria degli Usignoli was so disappointing! It was like a summer camp full of families.
I am a mature woman and I expect something more refined.
I am on holiday and I would expect to be relaxing.
Great spots to visit. Little towns I’ve never heard of.
Excellent Tour very professional friendly guides
Fantastic trip, with beautiful scenery
A great way to visit Tuscany for the first time. However beds at the accommodation choices need to be reviewed as they were below expected level.
The 6 nights spent only gives you a taste of the area and several towns we would have liked to spend more time in. We could have added another 4 nights and been very happy exploring the area.
The beds at most hotels were below our expectation.
Amazing experience. Delivered on what was promised and more. Good group size, good transport and very good accommodation, wonderful experiences, safe driver and excellent guide.
This tour was incredible. We don’t have a favourite place as it was all brilliant. We loved the smaller towns & our guide quickly sensed this. We can’t recommend Backroads enough.
