What To Expect
Palazzo Pubblico e Torre Grossa
The first village you will reach is San Gimignano, with old medieval towers to view and vibrant ceramic shops to peruse. You will also have the chance to savour the best gelato of San Gimignano, on the location where the acclaimed “Tea with Mussolini” was filmed. On your free time another suggestion would be to enter and visit the little history museum of San Gimignano, which hosts the true reproduction of the XIV century tower. In between the two Medieval Villages you will visit a famous wine cellar where the winemaker will introduce you to his products. You will have a guided sampling of the unique Chianti white wine Vernaccia and the Chianti DOCG, paired with delicacies such as bruschettas with and pecorino cheese.
Piazza del Campo
After the wine sampling we will reach Siena, the wonderful medieval village built among hills. Here our expert tour leader will lead you to the city center, passing through the narrow medieval streets until we reach one of the most remarkable medieval squares in Europe, the Piazza del Campo, with its shell-shaped formation, characteristic of the ancient theaters. Siena has also one of the most monumental Cathedrals of Italy. During your free time you will have a chance to visit it.

5.00My wife and I were picked up at the time specified and with 3 other couples we headed off for a highly informative and enjoyable day with our host , guide , driver and fountain of all knowledge Luigi . Driving through the Tuscan countryside we were told all about the carerra marble quarries in the mountains all the different trees and the crops that the local farmers grew . We were educated in the history of the local areas that we drove through . First stop was San Gimignano . Luigi gave us all a map of this beautiful medieval town and highlighted a route for us to take and pointed out the most interesting things to see Next we went to a local wine producer for wine tasting which we thoroughly enjoyed. Luigi was telling us about the different wines while we were driving there . We left the place very knowledgeable about the local wine industry. Last place was the beautiful city of Siena which again Luigi gave us prepared maps to help us get around and he accompanied us all up to the main square and told us all about the Palio de Siena . We had plenty of time to wander about by ourselves before we met up at the meeting place . We then drove back to Viareggio. In many years of travelling I must say that Luigi is one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had . So knowledgeable and very funny too . A very friendly guy who is a credit to the tour company. Thanks for a great day
Great experience

Grand day out

5.00Fabulous trip out with our wonderful tour guide and driver Valerie. There were 8 of us altogether on the trip which was a nice amount of people. Valerie was knowledgeable (local girl), chatty, friendly and enthusiastic. Valerie made sure that we were aware of the main streets/ buildings/wine/cheeses of interest. We booked through our hotel but most of our fellow travellers had already booked online before arriving in Italy. Would highly recommend.
Fantastic tour with Valeria. Worth every penny

5.00We had stayed in Viareggio a couple Of times & had wanted to visit San Gimignano & Siena for a while but it seemed tricky to get there using public transport so decided to take the plunge with a tour. The hotel recommended this company & although they usually start from Lucca they agreed to collect us from our hotel in viareggo. Valeria was our guide & she had an excellent knowledge of the areas and really made it so interesting. We particularity enjoyed the wine tasting. There was enough time in the 2 towns to have a look around & climb some towers too. Would highly recommend this company. Valeria was absolutely fantastic
Great day trip with a child
