    Find another vendor

    Horrible! I’ve used Viator multiple times in the past and always had a great experience. We booked an all day tour for Florence, Italy and received a cancellation email late that night (9 hours from departure). Absolutely ridiculous. This didn’t even allow us to be able to reschedule with another vendor and we are still waiting on the refund. Thanks for ruining our vacation. Do better!

    Response from the operator: We are truly sorry for the inconvenience caused by the cancellation of your tour. Unfortunately, in rare cases operational issues can occur that make it impossible to run the service safely or properly, and we prefer to cancel rather than deliver an experience that would not meet our standards. We completely understand how frustrating this must have been, especially with such short notice during your vacation. Your refund has been processed through Viator, and they manage the payment timeline on their side. Please accept our sincere apologies for the disruption to your plans.

    I love Italy!

    Yes, it was very informative and pleasant. The weather was good and we had the chance to learn about the Florence and Pizza histories and traditions. My drive Giulio R Moscatiello was very knowledge of the areas. We had a delicious lunch.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your review, we will be sure to tell Giulio!

    It will make you want to come back

    Umberto and the tour guide were absolutely amazing and very knowledgeable. If you need a get away from Rome and get just enough of Florencia and Pisa this is it!!

    Response from the operator: Thank you for your nice review!

    Disappointing

    The driver picked me up from our designated stop. He was friendly. Unfortunately his driving was questionable. He sped and used his phone whilst driving, not concentrating on the road. Once we got to Florence there was a walking tour organised, the guide was knowledgeable but hard to hear, it would of been better if she had an audio set for each person on the tour. The tour was fast paced and we had no time to absorb the beauty of Florence. We left and went to Pisa. We were left there with no guide. We wanted to climb the Leaning tower but were told we could not as we did not have a ticket. This should automatically be included in the package. I did not return with the tour. For the money that was paid, this tour was very disappointing.

    Response from the operator: I'm sorry for your review, it was a small group so I don't think earphones were needed, we try to create small groups just to have a situation of empathy with the guide instead of making large groups and giving earphones, also in the product there is written that in Pisa there is no guided tour and in 1 hour it is not possible to see piazza dei miracoli and be able to climb the tower

    Private Tour to Florence and Pisa from Rome by train: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rome.

    How much does Private Tour to Florence and Pisa from Rome by train cost?

    +

    Prices start at €310 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rome usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Private Tour to Florence and Pisa from Rome by train take?

    +

    Plan for about 12 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 Rome is not rushed.

    Is Private Tour to Florence and Pisa from Rome by train worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.8/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rome, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Private Tour to Florence and Pisa from Rome by train?

    +

    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 Tour to Florence and Pisa from Rome by train suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 12-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Tour to Florence and Pisa from Rome by train?

    +

    Around 2 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 Rome 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 Rome and add a light layer if any part of the 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Tour to Florence and Pisa from Rome by train 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 Rome 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 Rome?

    +

    Rome runs on skip-the-line access. The Colosseum underground, the Vatican before opening, and the catacombs south of the walls all require a licensed operator, and the price gap between the good ones and the rest is smaller than you would expect. We rank by guide credentials, group size and how reliably the promised access actually materialises. On Outty we rank every Rome experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Rome Pizza & Gelato Class with Wine by Cooking Italy, Rome [4in1] Pasta Making_Tiramisù_Wine Tasting_Secret Cellar, Rome Pasta and Tiramisu Class: Ravioli, Fettuccine & Fine Wine 5*. 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 Rome?

    +

    April, May, September and October. August is hot and half the city is shut. 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 Rome?

    +

    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.

    What is included in Private Tour to Florence and Pisa from Rome by train?

    +

    Included: Train tickets (second class); Hotel pickup (if inside Aurelian Walls); and Guided tour. Not included: Lunch; Tips and gratuities; and Hotel dropoff from train station. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
