Frequently asked questions — private driver Florence

How much does a private driver from Florence cost?

Prices depend on the destination and group size. Airport transfers start from €90 per vehicle (e.g. Florence airport to city center). Transfers in Tuscany start from €300 per vehicle for routes like Siena or San Gimignano. Long-distance transfers to Rome start from €850 per vehicle. All prices include fuel, tolls, and the driver — and are per vehicle, not per person, making it very competitive for groups of 3 or more.

How many people can travel in one private vehicle?

Our standard vehicle is a luxury air-conditioned minivan that comfortably accommodates up to 8 passengers with luggage. For larger groups, we can arrange multiple vehicles. Please contact us to discuss your specific requirements.

Is the private driver service available for airport transfers?

Yes. We cover all airports serving Florence and Tuscany: Florence Peretola (FLR), Pisa Galileo Galilei (PSA) and Bologna Guglielmo Marconi (BLQ). We also serve Rome Fiumicino (FCO) for longer transfers. Your driver monitors your flight and adjusts pick-up time accordingly.

Can I hire a private driver for a full day in Tuscany?

Absolutely. Our most popular service is the full-day private driver tour, typically 8–12 hours depending on the destinations you choose. You can visit 2–3 towns in a day, stop for a winery visit and lunch, and return to Florence in the evening. We recommend booking at least 2 weeks in advance, though last-minute requests are accommodated subject to availability.

What is the best day trip from Florence by private driver?

The most requested day trips are Siena + San Gimignano combined (10–12 hours), the Chianti Classico wine region (8–9 hours), and Cinque Terre (12 hours). For a shorter half-day, Pisa is ideal (~4–5 hours round trip). Our drivers can recommend the best route based on your interests and the season.

Do you offer private transfers from Florence to Rome?

Yes. Florence to Rome is approximately 277 km and takes about 3 hours by private car. We offer direct transfers from €850 per vehicle, or a scenic transfer-tour with a stop in Orvieto or Civita di Bagnoregio on the way. Transfers to Rome Fiumicino Airport (FCO) start from €850 (airport is 70 km further).

Can you pick me up from a cruise port?

Yes. We cover both major cruise ports for Tuscany: Livorno (for Florence and Tuscany day excursions, ~100 km from Florence) and Civitavecchia (for passengers continuing to Tuscany from Rome, ~300 km). Your driver meets you on the pier with a name sign.

Is the private driver service suitable for children and families?

Yes, our service is family-friendly. We can arrange child car seats upon request — please specify the age of the child when booking. Unlike shared group tours, a private driver means you travel entirely at your family’s pace with no waiting for others.

What is the difference between a private driver and a tour guide?

Our private drivers have basic English-speaking level. However, they are licensed as NCC drivers (noleggio con conducente), not licensed tour guides. If you would like a dedicated professional guide at a specific site (e.g. a Siena expert for the Cathedral), we can arrange this as an add-on.

How far in advance should I book a private driver in Florence?

We recommend booking at least 2 weeks in advance to guarantee your preferred vehicle and time slot. During peak season (April–October) we suggest booking 1–2 weeks ahead, especially for full-day tours. Last-minute bookings are welcome — contact us via WhatsApp at +39 347 080 9904 for same-day or next-day availability.

What is your cancellation policy?

Booking fees charged by the booking platform are non-refundable. Customers may contact us by phone to cancel or request further information. No-shows will be charged the full price.

“Private experiences” or “customized experiences” are fully refundable (excluding the 10% reservation management fee) if the cancellation or modification is made at least 15 days before the experience. After this period, the experience is no longer fully refundable. If the cancellation or modification is made between 14 and 8 days before departure, customers will receive a 50% refund, minus the 10% booking management fee. After this period, no refund will be issued.

Do you offer private driver services for wine tours in Chianti?

Yes. We have extensive experience with Chianti wine tours and work with small organic family wineries throughout the Chianti Classico DOCG zone. We can combine private driver service with winery visits, olive oil tastings and a traditional Tuscan lunch. See our Chianti Classico Wine Tour for our signature wine experience, or contact us for a custom winery day.
