Great tour a family with 3 boys - Karim our guide and driver was amazing. This tour was tailored to us and our family, with 3 boys obsessed with the Assasins Creed game. We spent a lot of time in Monteriggioni and my kids loved it. Siena was very interested and beautiful as was San Gianmgno. Great tour and the way to go with kids.

Private Tour of Siena, San Gimignano and Monteriggioni - This was our second private tour with CiaoFlorence. We were so excited to have Elvis as our personal guide again!! Elvis was very flexible, professional and entertaining. The tour was scheduled for eight hours but we were getting back to early so Elvis planned a few surprise stops to make sure we got the most of our trip. We couldn’t have had a better day or guide!! Will book again with CiaoFlorence and request Elvis in a heartbeat. You know your guide is great, when you end up taking selfies together!

Lovely way to discover the real tuscany - I really want to recommend this tour because for us has been perfect..
The driver Luca was helpful and friendly with us explaining everything while he was driving.
We have had a local guide in Siena called Maria whom was very knowledgeble and careful with our needs.
At lunch time we went to a local restaurant in Monteriggioni where the chef showned us different kinds of flours and also the way to make "pici", typical pasta from tuscany.
At San Gimignano don't miss the gelato which is the best I've ever had!!!

A perfect day trip... - I was in this tour with my partner and on the minivan we were travelling there was just another family of 4 people.
The guide Anna in Siena was very knowledgeble and ,with her, has been easy walking through the city center.
The lunch in the typical "trattoria" was really good and the homemade pasta simply amazing!!!
In San Gimignano we have had 2 hours of free time where we have been advised to try the awarded "best ice cream in the world"...delicious!!

Loved it! - It was just 4 of us, which was comfortable in the van. The driver was not a tour guide, we had tour guides at the stops. The wine and lunch was good.

We were the only two to take this... - <p>We were the only two to take this trip in the late season and it was very gratifying that the company was willing to do it for just us two. The tour guide in Siena was a delightful young woman whose grasp of the events and sites was communicated expertly. Our visit to the Palagetto vineyard/winery/olive oil press was educational and delicious. The food pairing provided with the wine tasting was a very ample and excellent lunch. The young woman who was our guide there Julia was absolutely engaging and knowledgeable. We thought this was a tremendous bargain for the price and recommend it most enthusiastically.</p>
