Top ways to experience Barocchi and nearby attractions
The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Santa Maria Novella
Santa Maria Novella train station welcomes the majority of the people arriving in Florence, which might explain the hectic pace. Commuters and tourists come across the constant hustle and bustle of the station before exiting, taking a few steps and stopping amazed in Piazza di Santa Maria Novella. It is impossible not to admire the the square, housing one of the most charming basilicas in Florence. The area has plenty of local spots to taste Tuscan specialties, but don’t stop in the main streets alone; the narrower side streets always ensure satisfaction. The huge Parco Delle Cascine provides a solution to the need for a green area as well as a historic welcome in the form of a bronze statue of King Vittorio Emanuele II riding a horse.

We had a timely pickup and drop off. We were very pleased since we had an early departure for the train for our day in Venice. There were no mishaps. I definitely would use this company again. We actually used the 4 times for Flight & Train pickups.

The driver was on time and was waiting for us when we got off of the plane in Florence. The vehicle we were picked up in was a Mercedes Benz van that easily held our luggage and had comfortable leather seats.

The driver was waiting for me at the hotel few minutes before pickup time / 4am / . He drove very safely since it was raining. I have no complaints except the cost of the trip, which it was my choice .

What wonderful service from Barocchi-Florence_Tuscany.
The car was clean and the driver had supplies (water, hand sanitizer etc.) for us.
Our driver Alessandro picked us up promptly at our hotel in Florence and we headed for a day in Tuscany. Along the way we saw the American Military Cemetery from the road we were on and asked Alessandro if we could make an unplanned stop. He had no problem detouring to see it. It was beautiful and yet somber at the same time. A must see.
Alessandro took us to Piazzale Michelangelo for the most beautiful view overlooking Florence and had wine tasting/lunch reservations for us in the Orchia Valley area. What beautiful country. He was extremely knowledgeable about Florence, Tuscany and wine country. He had plans for us to go to Siena and San Gimignano which were the cutest little Italian villages.
The next day we had more wine tasting plans, but I was feeling a bit under the weather so we asked Alessandro if we could just do lunch and skip the wine tasting and maybe do something different. He was so accommodating and planned lunch and visits to some great little towns that were hidden gems like Bagno Vignona! He even called ahead to the winery to let them know I was vegetarian. The winery (Paradisio Di Cacuci) had the best Brunello wine and we ended up ordering a case to be shipped back home.
Alessandro was very flexible and really just wanted to help us enjoy our best trip possible. We left feeling like we were leaving a friend. We will definitely be making a return trip, and will not hesitate to call Barocchi/Alessandro for his services!

Paul was wonderful...he was at hotel promptly on time and pleasantly greeted us at lobby even though so very early in morning. Handled our luggage efficiently and treated it and us with respect. An English background though in Italy almost 40 years - he spoke loud and clear enough to hear/easily understand. He Chit-chatted with us along the way giving some description of the landmarks we passed and made the ride very comfortable and pleasant. We will ask for him in future visits.
