"The perfect way to get a large family from Nice to Firenze. The driver was very courteous, professional, and mostly, accommodating to our sometimes crazy family with three teens. I recommend this car service if you don't want to deal with car rentals and their one-way drop-off fee of $500 euros. "

"Julian, our driver was outstanding. We encountered "bad traffic", which delayed our trip. He made stops, as necessary, to make sure that we ate and he took care of our needs well. We also enjoyed our conversation and getting to know him very much. Besides the delay, that wasn't Julian's fault, the experience was excellent. "

"Andranik and Jimmy were amazing! They made the long journey so easy and relaxing. Great drivers, clean cars and good music too 😊 (what is the name or link of the Spotify playlist that Andranik was playing? We loved it!) With such a late enquiry, the whole team were so helpful. 5* service, thank you! I will definitely use daytrip next time I need to book a transfer journey. "

"Dear Marketa: We had a wonderful trip with Mattia on July 4th. We spent 2 weeks in Provence and Italy doing mostly wine tour and food tour. We used your company in 2017 in Munich and had wonderful experience then. So I picked your service again to travel between Nice and Florence. Mattia was very polite, prompt and attentive to our needs during the trip. He made a few last minute arrangements for us so we had unexpected excitement on our stop. He is very knowledgeable about the culture, wine and food. Every town or region we drove through, he mentioned about the best wine, olive oil or cheese in that region. He was the perfect driver and tour guide for this trip. He recommended some very nice places to eat and even booked the table for us near our hotel. I would give him 10 stars for his overall performance. Thank you again for the excellent service. Best regards, Xin Quan"

"The trip back was great and Tommaso did just fine. We used Daytrip both directions for a round trip between Nice and Florence- it was excellent in all respects both ways and the staff we interacted with over email in planning/scheduling it were fantastic. Nothing to improve on at all in my view and we will definitely use Daytrip again! "

My husband commented with how impressed he was with her driving right down to the huge hail storm she drove in coming into Florence. We hope her car wasn’t ruined with damage from the hail. Would happily recommend your service. Kind regards Jenny H."

"We had originally planned to take a relatively inexpensive train from Nice to Florence, via Milan. Unfortunately, due to some reported construction, that was impossible. As we are an older couple, unable to navigate multiple transfers on local trains with heavy luggage in the summer heat, we felt we had no other realistic option other than to hire a driver. We found your website through an American travel agency (Sabra Tours in Baltimore). We tried to verify the legitimacy of your company through on-line reviews, and discovered only positive reviews. On consulting your website, we were initially shocked at the cost of hiring a driver for a one-way trip. However, feeling that we had no choice, we paid for the reservation in full. To be honest, we were very anxious about that financial commitment. We were grateful to receive email updates a few days before our trip, which were very reassuring. However, the evening before our transfer, we began to worry whether the driver would appear on time and whether he would have a car large enough for our valises. How surprised and delighted we were to see Benito waiting for us in the hotel lobby, almost 30 minutes before our scheduled departure! He greeted us warmly, and we were very happy to see that his vehicle was a luxurious Mercedes sedan. The 5-hour trip went smoothly. Benito engaged us in pleasant conversation and offered to make a rest stop along the way. He assisted with our luggage on arrival in Florence. We were very happy to receive his business card, as we will surely recommend your company to family and friends who are planning trips to Europe in the future. Please extend our thanks again to Benito for eliminating all of our worries, and getting us to our destination safely and in a timely fashion. Although an expensive travel option, our drive to Florence was an absolute pleasure. "
