Worst service ever
I am requesting a refund for my tour. Patel was very nice but was not knowledgeable as a tour guide. I could never recommend him as a guide to anyone else. It was a real disappointment, especially for the price I paid. He took us to Pisa but provided us no guidance. We had to change the schedule because the weather was not the greatest and panel said my husband could not do the town in cinque terre, even the most accessible. He to San Giammo however, it was just a shopping trip because he could not tell any history or significance of the town. Next, we went to sienna and was the same thing. He had us walk across the horse track and didn’t know what was and they were due to have a race that day. we spent 12 hours with him and he did not even find or offer a place to eat at either spot. 12 hours and no food. Other tours we did made us resection for restaurants, made arrangements for porter service to assist my husband and arranged tickets to monuments w a guide. Tracey
Response from the operator: Dear Tracey, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to read this review, but we believe it is important to clarify what was actually included in the experience you booked. This experience is clearly described as a **private sightseeing day trip with an English-speaking driver, not a licensed tour guide**. The description specifically states: “Friendly English-speaking driver, not a licensed guide, but happy to share his knowledge.” Licensed guiding services, restaurant reservations, porter services, monument tickets and meals are not included in this product. During your trip, the original Cinque Terre itinerary was adjusted because of the weather conditions and, most importantly, concerns regarding your husband's limited mobility. Our driver believed that visiting the coastal villages under those conditions could be difficult and potentially unsafe. The itinerary was therefore adapted to offer a more comfortable alternative. In Siena, the driver even arranged local taxi transportation to make sightseeing easier for your husband and helped you visit the main areas of the city. According to the driver, there was no indication during the day that you were dissatisfied with the arrangements, and our 24/7 customer support was not contacted with any complaint or request for assistance. We fully respect that the experience may not have met your personal expectations. However, many of the services criticized in this review — particularly having a professional tour guide, arranging restaurant reservations, porter assistance and monument tickets — were simply not part of the experience purchased. The full private transportation service was provided, the itinerary was adapted for safety and accessibility, and the driver made additional efforts to accommodate your group. For these reasons, while we are sorry that your expectations were different, we do not believe this review accurately reflects the service that was booked and provided. My Europe Journey

Private day trip : Florence to Cinque Terre, flexible itinerary: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does Private day trip : Florence to Cinque Terre, flexible itinerary cost?
+
Prices start at $566 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Florence usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private day trip : Florence to Cinque Terre, flexible itinerary take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Florence is not rushed.
Is Private day trip : Florence to Cinque Terre, flexible itinerary worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 43 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (1/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private day trip : Florence to Cinque Terre, flexible itinerary?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private day trip : Florence to Cinque Terre, flexible itinerary suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private day trip : Florence to Cinque Terre, flexible itinerary?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Florence can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Florence and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private day trip : Florence to Cinque Terre, flexible itinerary start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Florence within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Florence?
+
On Outty we rank every Florence experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Best tour in Florence: Renaissance & Medici -by a storyteller, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class with Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Florence?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Florence?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
