Beautiful tour, beautiful village! - Beautiful tour, beautiful village! If you are in Siena you must definitely visit San Gimignano. The guided tour is essential, the village would not have the same charm without someone who can tell you its beauty.

Worthwhile Tour - Barbara was very knowledgeable and went out of her way to entertain the child in our group and to accommodate to the rain during our tour. The town and views of the surrounding countryside were truly beautiful. Enjoyed hearing the history behind what we were seeing.
