Fun in Tuscany - this is the #1 Tuscany tour I have recommended to friends and family for years, they always love it and it's good value, plus you literally ride a Vespa through Tuscany... If Sam (Issam) is your guide please tell him Jess Dante says hello! https://funintuscany.com/NEW-VT.php

Nice area to stay in -- Oltrarno district (try around Piazza Santo Spirito) but you can't go too wrong. Make sure you have air conditioning if visiting in the summer. Horto Convento is a beautiful choice : https://www.booking.com/hotel/it/horto-convento.en.html?aid=1243293&no_rooms=1&group_adults=1
