    Personally, Florence was a special place, and it was nice to have two days there while nipping over to Pisa in the morning on the second day.

    Our Tour Leader, Emi made the week. We were a small group of 4 and I felt she went above and beyond to get to know us and ensure we had the best experience possible in each city. It is a full on, whistle stop tour of each place but I feel I have been away for a month with everything that was packed in. Equally, people could drop in and out to do their own thing. We were recommended fabulous restaurants with great local speciality dishes which is very much part of the overall holiday experience for me.
