Transfers
Another remarkable day with Luca touring through Tuscany. I have booked Luca for transfers and tours many times over the past few years. A few years ago,... read more we spent a day touring several hill towns in Tuscany and participated in a visit to a delightful farm where he organized a private cheese tasting. Fantastic!
This year we toured the countryside around the town of Lucca, and had lunch seaside. Another fabulous tour day!
Luca has as a deep knowledge of the Tuscan area and has lots of interesting facts and stories to share.
Each trip, Luca has also provided transfers to and from the Florence airport to my destinations in the Tuscan hills. He is reliable, punctual, personable and trustworthy. ( **this is extremely important for a solo traveler!)
Without hesitation, I would recommend Luca and Hills and Roads tours and will absolutely book him again for my next trip to Tuscany. Alla Prossima!

This is my third tour with Luca 2016, 2019, and May 2022. Each has been perfect and memorable. Luca takes you to interesting places that you would never find... read more on your own or with other tour companies. I consider Luca part of the family. We were a group of 9 and Luca used 2 vans. Christiano drove the second van and he was great too. Don’t look any further. Book Luca today !!!

We toured with Luca for 2 full days in May and couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide. He is prompt, interesting, speaks excellent English and an... read more all around nice guy. After several emails back and forth (our fault as we kept changing our plans), he fashioned two wonderful days touring Tuscany as it should be without busloads of tourists. He knew just where to take us (lovely hilltop towns I had never heard of before) and along scenic backroads by olive groves and vineyards. He arranged a wine tasting and olive oil tasting as we requested and we were delighted with all of his choices. I highly recommend choosing Luca for your personal guide – we were extremely impressed with him.

We spent 2 days touring with hills and roads, one day with Lucca and one day with his assistant Andreo. These two days were the highlight of our honeymoon trip... read more to Italy. We were very interested in tasting wine, especially from smaller vineyards/wines that we would not be able to get at home. We spent one day in Chianti and the other in Montalcino/Montepulciano. Both Lucca and Andreo were extremely knowledgeable about the area/history and the wines. They picked the perfect places for us to vist and we could not have been happier. They were clearly passionate about showing people around their area. We are already planning another trip to go back. By touring with them we were able to see and do things that we never would have fond on our own. They are wonderful guides and really go the extra mile, even including stopping off at a pharmacy and interpreting for me when I was ill. I cannot say enough good things about them, a trip to this area would not be complete without a tour from Hills and Roads and I cannot wait to go back!

Highly recommend this after your cruise. Great Van with plenty of room for 8 large pieces of luggage plus 4 guests plus Luca. Better deal than renting a car/van for Tuscany. We hired Hills & Roads for Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and drive to Rome on Wednesday. Tuesday was Andreas for more Tuscan countryside including lunch at vineyard and shopping in Montelpulchiano. Wednesday was pretty Dutch girl named Danielle to Florence for shopping and museums. Luca is trying to hide Danielle but highly recommend her. She speaks excellent english and italian with a great disposition. Our wives took her along with them for shopping in Florence and had a great day.
