Idania articulated the historic culture of Siena perfectly! We thoroughly enjoyed the description of St. Caterina’s life and relics, as well as, the details of the sculptures, paintings, tiles on the floor and the pulpit in the Duomo of Siena. Idania, is passionate and is proud of Siena, she is sweet and has an awesome personality to connect with the people she brings on the tour. We even had a peek at how the Paleo community comes together and the competition! Thank you Idania! Ciao!
Great tour, missed the crypt

Great tour and very knowledgeable tour guide. Only downside was that we didn't have time to do the crypt tour because the guide had another tour booked that day. I wish I could have seen the crypt.
Fun with Guide Guilia in Siena

Great tour with Guilia! We learned so much about Siena’s Duomo and the Crypt - fascinating! She also educated us on the 17 Contrades and the Palio competition! She made our tour so fun!

I cannot recommend this highly enough!! I ended up having a 3 hour solo walking tour around the heart of Siena. My guide, Giulia was outstanding!! I had such an enjoyable time and I learned a lot too. Giulia is a passionate and highly knowledgeable local who is a pleasure to spend time with. I loved the fact that I could Taylor the tour to what I was most interested in. It was a shame when the tour had to end!! Thank you so much.
Amazing Guide and Great Tour!

Our guide was simply amazing! Ludovica Noviello was knowledgable, friendly, and entertaining! She was the best tour guide we had throughout our two week trip in Italy!
