The Ti Amo Tuscany tour is almost perfect

I will write a detailed review of the tour "Ti Amo Tuscany". Maybe it will be useful to someone.

The first day of the tour took place near the road, because not enough people gathered to travel to Eger. It was for the better.

Day two - arrival in Baden (a small resort town near Vienna, where you can spend the day, as there is a small historic center, a very beautiful park and thermal complex). However, the tour organizers clearly overdid it, promising one day in the program and Baden, and Vienna, trying to attract more people (those who were not in Baden, bite on Baden, those who were not in Vienna, take them to Vienna). We had 15 people in the group, who had to be taken to Vienna after 2 hours in Baden. In addition, a 9-year bus stop was required before the night shift. In this regard, we left Baden around midnight, which ruined our entire next schedule.

Day three - arrival in Pisa and then Florence with a significant delay, which was associated with the late departure from Baden.

Day four - tour organizers offer a day off in Florence. But not everyone will be able to spend a day off in Florence, but only those who know the Italian transport system well, can read the schedule in Italian or English, know how to buy tickets at special terminals and compose them in others. This is due to the fact that the night was in a hotel in Incisa, 60 km from Florence, which must be reached by train. Out of a group of 36 people, only 2 dared to go to Florence.

Others chose the elective "Siena and San Gemigliano", and they were right. Cities under UNESCO protection. The impression that you are in the real Middle Ages by time machine is such a well-preserved historical part in 2 cities. However, we got to Siena with great difficulty.

The distance of about 75 km was covered in 3 hours. We reached the suburbs of Siena quickly, and could not get to the historic part for long. Many circles were wound on the outskirts of Siena. From the beginning, the GPS navigator failed (in my opinion, the tour operator's omission), then our group leader mentioned that the bus did not buy a voucher for arrival in the city center. But tourists are known to be responsible for all the shoals of companies, drivers and group leaders, so we simply did not have a free hour after sightseeing tours. Were it not for this incident, the cities of Siena and San Gamigliano are the best things to be on tour.

Day 5 - Trieste, a city that is no different in my opinion. The only thing that is almost in the center of the city is the sea, and there is still a very beautiful castle on the outskirts of the city. As it was hot, everyone went to sea. There were no people on the sightseeing tour and the castle.

The sixth day was spent on the bus.

All stages of Stagecoach Travel are called Low Cost.

I don't know what that means for the bus tour. Perhaps this involves a bus route with bald treads, which can not be called convenient and comfortable. At the beginning of the trip, it seemed that he would fall apart on the Kyiv-Chop highway. During our six-day trip to Italy, we watched only 2 French comedies, one of which was about sexually harassed men. There was no music, no movies, no show Eagle and the rest. I never pay attention to such trifles, but 6 days of traveling in grave silence is quite unpleasant.

And finally. Drivers, unfortunately I do not know their names, deserve the highest praise and gratitude from all tourists, true professionals, very polite and pleasant to communicate. Always helped with luggage. The leader of the group is Dima Kuzenko, a clear beginner in his field.

But he coped with his responsibilities properly, in some cases he was saved by a sense of humor, though sometimes not always appropriate. Hotels on the tour route are quite decent. Local guides are experts in their field, everyone was delighted with their excursions.
