Full description

Hop aboard your minibus at 7:45 AM and drive for around an hour through the Tuscan countryside. Enter the heart of Siena, and start the visit with your guide. Take off through the town's narrow streets and hear stories about Siena as you go. Skip the line to see the interior of the magnificent cathedral, and pass through the shell–shaped Piazza del Campo, where the Palio horse race is held twice a year. After your walking tour, enjoy some free time to enjoy Siena at your own leisure. Move on to San Gimignano, and admire the unique Tuscan landscape as you drive through marvelous scenery surrounded by olive trees, vines and old stone buildings on your way. Stop at a family owned wine estate to relax and enjoy a traditional Tuscan lunch for a taste of country hospitality. After lunch, take an easy drive to San Gimignano to finish your day. Famous for its splendid skyline of tall medieval towers, have free time to explore on your own. Discover the main street full of typical shops, have a look at the Collegiata (main church), or enjoy a gelato. Return to Florence in the late afternoon.

Lorenzo our guide was brilliant. Extremely knowledgeable, humorous and ensured we all had a great time. Unfortunately the weather had it's moments but the threats of thunderstorms didn't eventually luckily. Sienna was amazing, The winery lunch was incredible and San Gimingnano was brilliant. Nino our driver was super friendly and sure knew how to drive! The small group (22) was easily managed. Would do it again.

Amazing day with Lorenzo and Alessio! From start to finish it was awesome. Lorenzo knew so much history and we had the perfect amount of free time in each town. The lunch and wine were also amazing. Great views from the winery. The size of the group was perfect, and notably smaller than every other group we saw. Our group had 16 people I think. Much easier to navigate the narrow streets with the smaller group! Alessio (our driver) was also great. He made the trip seamless. The bus had great AC and stayed cool. They also provided cold waters in the afternoon. Would 10/10 recommend!

We toured with Lorenzo and Alessio was our driver! Both were incredible! We were so happy with this experience. There were 10 other people in our group, so it felt pretty private. Information was great and the winery is definitely a highlight of our trip so far!
