About

An unforgettable voyage into the history of Tuscany awaits. Stagnant, picturesque settlements preserved in time. Cicada-filled town squares and age-old practices. Vast fields awash with vineyards and gentle undulating hills. It is through a personalized tour of Siena that you can fully embrace the rustic charms of the region, its spirit, its essence! And with a chaperoning driver and passionate tour leader to guide you on your journey, you are guaranteed comfort and style as you embark on your Siena tour. Meet your private dedicated English-speaking driver and embark on a day filled with fond memories as you discover two small yet impressive Tuscan towns. Marvel at the historic remnants of centuries past in Siena, a city that exudes charm with its marvelous medieval landscapes. Take a tour of the town that is famous for hosting the electrifying Palio with your personal tour guide. Siena, built by the Romans, has an eventful past and remarkable buildings. You will be captivated by local customs, such as the widely known Palio di Siena that occurs in the delightful Piazza del Campo. Two times annually, stunning horses participate in a heart-stopping race, the Palio di Siena, an ancient tradition that still engages all Sienese and is traced back to the Middle Ages! As you amble along the cobblestone pathways, your guide regales you with intriguing myths and tales of old. Experience the grandeur of Siena's breathtaking Cathedral, the famed Duomo, as you pay a visit. Journey through the Tuscan countryside and depart from Siena, where the olive groves shine with a silver glow; the lush green hills are speckled with golden farmhouses and small churches. Sample the local delicacies at a classic trattoria, tucked away in the calm countryside, as you stop for a delightful lunch. For a pleasant activity following your meal, consider checking out the picturesque San Gimignano - a true gem of Tuscany. Renowned for its striking towers, the ancient town has been preserved well over time and is a widely recognized destination all across Italy; in fact, it has played a role in numerous films. Strolling down its cobbled streets and admiring the high, elegant spires is a truly unique experience. Another attraction is browsing the charming shops, where you'll find bottles of high-quality Vernaccia di San Gimignano wine, luxurious saffron, dainty hand-crafted linens, and valuable Santa Fina pottery. Once more, make your way through the hills after exploring San Gimignano. Stop at a charming boutique winery as the light starts changing and crimson-hued clouds come forth. Admire the vineyards while you're there and enjoy a brief visit and memorable dinner. End your day in typical Tuscan fashion with a sublime estate wine and a luscious gourmet dinner. An unforgettable Tuscan lifestyle experience is our signature Siena private tour combined with gourmet dining and a visit to San Gimignano.
