Tour companies?

Hi all. I've been to Italy many times but have not had the opportunity to visit towns like Montepulciano, San Gimignano or Montalcino. Since I don't rent a car I reply on mostly trains, sometimes buses, for travel. I'm going to Italy in March and was given the name of 2 tour companies by hotel staff in Florence. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with these tour companies. If so, would you recommend or could you recommend others? Thanks in advance!

No opinion on the tour companies but I’ll say that San Gimignano is not that hard to reach using public transportation and is worth spending at least one night there. I spent two nights and would do it again. If you day trip, you’ll be there only when it’s packed with day trippers. It’s much nicer before day trippers arrive and after they leave.
