Livorno Florence

I used Rome in Limo after reading other reviews about this company and I can't tell you how much I loved them. Everything was great. We did have 8 people but 2 had to cancel so 6 of us went on our journey to Florence. However he asked if we wanted to drive through the Tuscany scenery and visit a vineyard. Well of course we do. So we did a real quick tour of the winery and bought a bottle of wine and went on our way. Florence is extremely packed with tourists in July so having this guide was immensely helpful. We pre -bought our tickets on line and Vinnie pulled up really close to the ticket office, helped us exchange our voucher for tickets and knew a friend who got us in after a short wait in front of the long lines. We did a quick tour of the Accademia for the "Statue of David' and came out to meet him and went to a little Italian restaurant for Ravioli, lasange and Caprese salad. Vinnie gives us every option imaginable. Do you want something quick, sit down, pick your own, he'll pick one, inside or outside? After that we had on our own to go see the Duomo and walked down to the famous bridge to take photos and souviener shop before we got back on the minibus. Took a few pics from the minibus of the local Police with their guns. You really aren't allowed to take their picture so I sneakily took it from inside the tour bus.
