After leaving Florence you will travel toward San Gimignano and enjoy the views of vineyards and rolling hills as you listen to the fascinating history of this town.
On arrival your guide will walk you to the main gate and you have free time to roam the picturesque streets and squares. Maybe browse the local shops, try an award winning gelato or walk among the town’s famous medieval towers.
Next we stop at an organic, family-run wine estate. You will enjoy a traditional local lunch with plenty of wine, and soak in the idyllic location overlooking stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
After lunch, view Siena through the eyes of a local as you join a guided walking tour through the medieval city. Learn about the world’s oldest bank, see the Piazza del Campo - the site of the 600-year-old Palio horse race - and admire the interior of the Duomo, a treasure chest of artworks. Afterwards, enjoy Siena at your own pace with free time for shopping or relaxing in an open-air cafe.

The guide meets you at the main railway station , close to the taxi rank, and McDonalds is on the opposite side of the rad, and a small kiosk selling refreshments etc, very close to meeting point. From the meeting point there is a 10 min walk to where the coach is parked. The day started at 0800 hrs, and finished at 2100hrs.
The sites visited were very interesting, lunch was excellent at the winery, with excellent toilet facilities, and a shop that sells their wines. etc. The high light was the "Church/Cathedral) at Sienna is stunning and beautiful..
We were so pleased we booked the tour as we saw so much more and understood so much more than trying to do it alone.
Stefano the guide was excellent, so knowledgeable, helpful and patient and funny.
Thank you

Our guide Stefano and driver Luca made us feel like family. We spent the day laughing and learning and eating and drinking and exploring. It was the most perfect day. Seeing San Gimignano and Siena with them - and with a local guide and friend Alicia - brought Tuscany to life.

A wonderful tour- both our driver and guide were knowledgeable, friendly and flexible. They couldn’t have done more to make it an exceptional day- both for having fun and learning about these lovely historical places. There was the right balance of showing us around sharing the history and stories and free time to explore and shop. The view at lunch at the winery was incredible and the food and wine complemented perfectly. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this more personalised version as it was easy to be curious, relax and enjoy - an absolutely amazing day!

Stefano was a great driver, tour guide. We were given plenty of free time to wander around at each village. Despite the rain and cold temperatures, or trip was fun. Lunch at an organic wine farm was delicious.

This was an amazing tour. Stephano was our driver/guide. He was very personable and definitely made the trip one to remember
It rained most of the day but we were able to make the best of it. San gimignano was amazing and wish there was a little more time there.
The winery was limited due to weather but the staff did a great job and we still had a great experience. Plenty of wine.
Siena was great and our guide was very informative and accommodating for a member of our group that wasn’t a little slow moving that day. I can’t recall her name, I apologize.
I highly recommend this tour.

Started the tour very smoothly with Sara and Francessca - amazing tour guides! We were a small group of 4.
First was San Gimignano - we had a few hours there, lovely little town! Sara gave us great tips to go up La Rocca to have amazing views of the Tuscany wineries and also had the recommended gelato which was extremely smooth.
We had a lunch at a local winery - the pasta and wines were delicious! Followed by an antipasti plate. Personally would’ve liked a bit more food, but there was plenty of wine! And an amazing view of the winery and San Gimignano.
The last stop was Siena, lovely little city - had an awesome local guide and viewed the duomo!
Overall recommend this tour! Thanks Sara and Francessca for the great day!
