Sara, our tour leader, is very kind, funny and gives the best tips to enjoy the time we have in each place in the best way. The three cities are just amazing, each one in it’s special way. The lunch was very good, served with great wine of four kinds, all produced by the house, as well as the olive oil. This is a nice way to get the best out of Tuscany in one day, of course you could enjoy more each place with more time, however Sara’s guidance really help those with a tight schedule. We should thank Emiliano for the gentle drive through the curves of Tuscany, taking us safely and smoothly in our journey.

We had an amazing day. breathtaking views, the food and wine were delicious, but most of all, our tour guide Manolo was the best we could have in every way: the tour guide in Siena (Annalisa) was also great, both were very informative, entertaining and fun. we really felt the passion and love for what they do. we felt very well taken care of by the entire team. Thanks for making this experience unforgettable for us.

This was such an enjoyable day trip. The views, food and guide were all exceptional. There was plentiful of wine to go with each course, so definitely felt it was good value. Our guide, Alex, was hilarious and knowledgeable. Cathedrals close on Sundays to tours, so sadly, we didn’t get to go inside the Siena cathedral. Instead, we went to the hospital museum. If visiting the church is important to you, don’t make the same mistake and book it on another day.
