Great tour - Best tour so far. Our tour guide was phenomenal. Could have used another free half an hr both at Siena and San Gimignono. Lunch and wine tour was exceptional.

Good day tour - We started with a photo stop at Piazzale Michelangelo (we've already gone the day before without knowing this is part of the tour's itinerary), then headed to Siena and had a walking tour with our guide (Agnes?). Poggio Amorelli, the winery we visited, was great, and so was lunch - we had charcuterie, choice of a pasta, and cantuccini (all with wine pairing). The last stop was San Gimignano (this was a lovely town) - had a brief walking tour with our guide and just had around 20 mins to walk around by ourselves. There was a group of 6 of us and another group of 5 split into two minivans, and the guide hopped in and out of each minivan at different stops. Didn't bother us as we had the commentary/walking tours at each destination with the guide. Overall a good day tour.

Relaxing and fun day spent in beautiful surroundings. - Beautiful scenery. The wine tasting event was fun, even for a person who is not much of a wine drinker (like me). Our guide was friendly and helpful, and the winery people we met were friendly and informative. The lunch was delicious too!

Wonder day under the Tuscan sun😊 - Our guide, Alma was wonderful. Very knowledgeable and helpful. The wine tasting and lunch were at the top, but we also enjoyed our time in Siena and San Gimignano. It was a nice change of pace by being relaxing compared to more hectic tours

Beautiful Tuscany - Siena and San Gimignano were beautiful towns. The winery was good and we enjoyed seeing the freshly picked grapes turned into wine as the grapes had just been harvested.

Nice way to see some of Tuscany’s highlights - Great way to see the highlights of Sienna and San Gimignano in a comfortable way. Our Siena visit was unfortunately disrupted by some torrential rain, but that is the luck of the draw! The winery visit and lunch were great.

Day in Tuscany - Our tour guide, Antonio was exceptional, if soft spoken. The tour was fun. Full day. Not enough time in Siena. The wine tasting and food at Fattoria Winery was fantastico!!

A home run! - Outstanding tour that would’ve been even better if it hadn’t rained the entire day. Our tour giude Patricia was extremely knowledgeable offering many points of interest throughout the day, highly recommended.

San Gimignano makes this tour worthwhile - Sienna was underwhelming. Too much emphasis on the annusl horrific horse race that the city is known for and a visit to its basillica (another church) that did not occur do to time constraints and the ticket lineup. San Gimignano was spectacular. It made the outing so worthwhile. Views from there were breathtaking and gives you an understaning of Tuscany's popularity.

Buyer beware - The tour itinerary was not followed for this tour. We were supposed to be given time in each of the towns to explore, for example, San Gimingnano itinerary, listed an expert guided walking tour and that we would be in the town for an hour and a half. We had less than 10 minutes of our guide talking and then given a quick 20 minutes to look around town and take pictures. Very disappointing if I had known that I would not have booked the tour I booked because we were supposed to be given adequate time in each of the towns on a positive note. The lunch at the winery was very nice.
