  • 4Fun experience. The tour...

    Fun experience. The tour operator was super nice and professional. I was a little disappointed, and it may have been my fault for not doing my due diligence, but I thought we were going to experience the wine tastings in an actual winery, but this was not the case. It was nice to be driven to the various small towns and instructed on what was worth seeing in each town. The scenery in Tuscany was amazing.

  • 3Average/Disappointing

    This could hardly be called a wine tour and we did not get what was advertised. We visited three villages and had free time in each. This was nice. The tour advertised a Tuscan lunch, tours if two wineries and 5 wine tastings. The lunch was very good and included two small glasses of wine. As for the wine tours, both times we were told that we can visit the cellar if there was time. There was no guide and no chance to walk in the vineyards etc. When we got to the second winery, the setting in the garden was nice but there were not enough seats, glasses and there were not enough glasses. Another tour joined ours and there was only one person setting up, running to get more glasses and wine. Then proceeded with a 15 minute sales pitch for the wines. We only got an once of two different wines and if we wanted the promised 5th winery, there was an extra $10 euro charge. Oh did I mention the glasses were smudged and lipstick stained. All in all it was an average tour at best and mostly disappointing.

  • 5Great tour!

    We had an amazing time on the tour and absolutely loved it! Everything was very enjoyable and well organized. The cities included in the itinerary are beautiful and definitely worth visiting. The whole team was fantastic. Our guide, Sofi, and our driver, Claudio, were both incredibly friendly, attentive, and helpful throughout the entire day. They made sure we had everything we needed and made the experience even more enjoyable. We highly recommend this tour!

  • 5Fantastic day with Sofia and Claudio in wine country!

    Sofia and Claudio were fabulous hosts- making each step of the day seemless, fun, and enjoyable! We had a fabulous day and Sofia kept everyone engaged and happy- always anticipating our next need or question! WhatsApp was a clever way to keep the group informed and on schedule! We met the 27th generation winemaker- what an experience! Thank you Sofia and Claudio!!

About Siena

Siena is a medieval Tuscan hill city of red-brown brick, known for its shell-shaped main square, its striped cathedral and the twice-yearly Palio.

Siena was Florence's great rival in the Middle Ages, and its historic centre, a UNESCO site, still looks much as it did then. Il Campo, the shell-shaped square, slopes down to the Palazzo Pubblico and its slender tower, the Torre del Mangia. The cathedral, striped in white and dark green marble, has a pavement of inlaid scenes and a library of painted manuscripts.

Top-ranked sights in Siena: Piazza del Campo, Siena Cathedral (Duomo di Siena), Mangia Tower (Torre del Mangia).
