    Highlight day of my Italian vacation

    After a 3 week whirlwind around southern Italy, I was ready for a much needed R & R and I sure got that with "Alex" on my rainy, but beautiful and mystical magical day driving throughout the lovely small towns in and around Tuscany. I honestly have to say it was the best day of my 21 day trip. Alex was very easy to be with and talk to. He gave me much insight into Italy answering many questions which I still had. Communication with "Kiss From Italy" was excellent throughout and I have to say I wish I could do the day all over again. A great highlight of my trip. Thank you.

    The Dream Tour in a Dream Destination

    I booked this for a family of 10 and they had an AMAZING experience on the tour and I, as the travel agent, had an amazing experience communicating with Kiss from Italy. I am making them my GO TO company for private tours. My clients expect excellence and Kiss from Italy provided excellent service. Don't hesitate - the guides/drivers/experience was perfecto!

    Loved it and relaxing. ...

    Loved it and relaxing. Wanted to see more wildflowers and instead had to pig out everywhere. I love food.

    A Wonderful Day in Tuscany

    What a wonderful experience. Alessandro picked us up in rome on time in an immaculate and comfortable van. The drive up to Tuscany included stops to take photos of the beautiful countryside. The three planned stops went as planned and I enjoyed the free time to explore. He provided a great recommendation for our lunch. The tour of the winery was top-notch. We had the complete place to ourselves which made for a special tasting experience. I would also point out that the communication from the tour company was outstanding. When I was unable to obtain details prior to the tour, Francesca made sure to contact me with all the information I needed. Again, a wonderful experience.

    Private: Tuscany Day Tour from Rome with Optional Wine Tasting: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Private: Tuscany Day Tour from Rome with Optional Wine Tasting cost?

    +

    Prices start at €160 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: Tuscany Day Tour from Rome with Optional Wine Tasting take?

    +

    Plan for about 10 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: Tuscany Day Tour from Rome with Optional Wine Tasting worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 13 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: Tuscany Day Tour from Rome with Optional Wine Tasting?

    +

    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: Tuscany Day Tour from Rome with Optional Wine Tasting suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private: Tuscany Day Tour from Rome with Optional Wine Tasting?

    +

    Around 5 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private: Tuscany Day Tour from Rome with Optional Wine Tasting 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: Tuscany Day Tour from Rome with Optional Wine Tasting?
