Enjoyable day trip - Teresa was our guide and Pino was our driver. We enjoyed both of them, and they made the trip very enjoyable. We really liked Sienna and Teresa gave us a lot of background on the area. We then went to San Gimignano for a wine tasting and lunch. They treated us very well there and the food kept coming. This, too, was enjoyable. We left hotel around 6:30 a.m. (they picked us up at 2 hotels) and returned around 6:00 p.m. It was a wonderful day and very glad to get out of the congestion in Rome.

Highlight of Our Vacation - Joseph (Jessippi) and Roberto took us to Sienna, San Gimignano and to the Tenuta Torciano winery. The most rememberable and most cherished part of this trip was when we met the owner and his family at the Tenuta Torciano winery. We had seen them and this winery on U-Tube videos and were so excited that we had an opportunity to meet them. Joseph shared much knowledge about this region and winery with us. My wife and I had just finished a 9-day Mediterranean cruise that started in Barcelona and ended in Rome, and we both have to say, without a doubt, that this tour was the highlight of our vacation.

Siena & SanGimignano Day Trip - Severino was welcoming and very knowledgeable explaining history and culture. He accommodated me to walk at my pace and stop for a brief rest as needed. The tour was interesting & Severino answered all questions. The driver Maximo was excellent providing a smooth safe ride, opening doors and always being prompt to meet us. The lunch & wine tasting was superior and provided awesome landscapes to take photographs.

Under the Tuscan sun - We were pleasantly surprised to see we had a private tour in a sleek BMW. Our driver Luigi was excellent and our tour guide Fabio looked after us. We had an early start so we stopped for breakfast. He made sure we tried local delicacies. But the highlight of the tour was the wine tasting with lunch. Perfect!

Fabulous even in the rain - Even in the rain, we very much enjoyed our tour. Our small group ended up being just my husband and I. The two Tuscan villages were stunning and the wine tasting was a dream. This was our favorite tour of our time in "Rome". We're so glad we got out of the city for this relaxing beautiful tour of the Tuscan countryside.
