We are a family of four and we were on a cruise ship that docked in Livorno. We had chosen to see Pisa, Volterra, and Bolgheri. Our guide, Alessio, was super prompt and waiting for us as we exited the ship. We immediately bonded with Alessio and he was awesome engaging with our two teens (15 and 12). He had us all laughing within minutes of being in his car. Alessio had prepared to take us off the beaten path to see some memorable sights on our way to Pisa and Volterra and we ended up capturing some of the best pictures. He was also super knowledgeable on history of the region. He coordinated each stop perfectly and showed us where to go on foot and dropped pins for us so we knew where to go and how to find him while we were done at each stop. He even coordinated lunch at a quaint and authentic restaurant off the beaten path and scheduled us at a beautiful and intimate winery with the best views. Overall, our time with Alessio was one of the most memorable parts of the trip. He even remembered my wife’s birthday and sent us a message on her actual birthday. For all our travels, I don’t remember a host/guide more personable, more generous, and more accommodating than Alessio. I’d highly recommend him for any of your travels, you won’t be disappointed!
