Tanya was an excellent guide. She was so knowledgeable about the areas we visited and made it such a fun day. The scenery and lunch and wine tasting were awesome. I highly recommend this tour and you will be lucky to have Tanya as your guide.

Terrific day in Tuscany
Cherisse_J, Nov 2023
This was a wonderful full day, small group tour of eight people. The meeting point was a five minute walk from our hotel in Montecatini Terme. Valerie was our guide and she was knowledgeable, personable and made sure we experienced it all. We were driven to each location in an air-conditioned touring van. We explored through beautiful Siena and wow…the sights and history! My husband and I had the best pasta at Ristorante Mugolone down one of the side streets from the main square while in Siena. Then onto magnificent San Gimignano where we explored the town, the towers, and the beautiful views of the countryside from the top as Valerie continued to fill our ears with pertinent information and history. We then headed through the beautiful Tuscan countryside to Palagetto Winery. After a short presentation, we indulged in delicious meats, pecorino cheese, honey and spreads while we tasted their delicious wines. Valerie has extensive wine knowledge and was fantastic in her explanations, details and pairing suggestions. It was a perfect intimate wine tasting in San Giminiano! We ended up ordering a case of their Chianti and had it shipped home to California at a very reasonable shipping cost. We all hopped back in the van and Valerie drove us back to our hotels. I can’t express again how wonderful Valerie was, so kind, so personal, so knowledgeable and she made that day extra for the two of us! Grazie mille Valerie!
Tuscan Treat

Tania was an excellent tour guide!! A wealth of information for Sienna, San Gimignano and along the drive. She even taught us so much at the wine tasting! We loved this tour. Can't say enough good things about it. I'd highly recommend it to anyone.
Exceptional.

Our host Valerie was exceptional...she made the day. We learned so much...this is A MUST DO trip! We enjoyed this much more than Florence for its uniqueness and charm.
Great trip

Tanyia was an excellent tour guide and very friendly. We also had a great time with the people we met on the tour. I travelled with my two sons and they also thoroughly enjoyed their day. I would highly recommend this trip.
Siena small group tour

Tanya was a great guide. Very knowledgeable. Good English speaking. Easy to understand. Would have preferred to go to Siena first and then San Gimignano second. Would have been nice to spend more time in San Gimignano.
San Gimignano is amazing!

Valerie did an excellent job of leading this small group of 8 people. She found special places that we would never have explored if we had been on our own.
Nice tour

Valeria and Siena!
Flo_M, May 2022
Valeria was exceptional! She was an awesome guide with great humor offering us alot of information as we drive to and from San Gimingano and Siena. She was thoughtful for all levels of mobility in our group and assisted us in our wine tasting knowledge! On the way back she helped us find an open grocery store late in a Sunday for some necessities! The tour was wonderful. But Valeria was exceptional! Her enthusiasm made the trip for our group!
Beautiful tour

Wonderful day!
Beetl_W, Jul 2018
Our guide gave us so much background information about Siena and San Gimigano. I am older and I found the hills hard on my knees, but I still enjoyed it tremendously.The tour of the winery was excellent and I enjoyed learning about and drinking the Chianti. Our guide was superb.
