Amazing adventure. Would definitely recommend. - Marco was amazing. Very informative. He was explaining things to us during the drive. San Gimignano was probably the best part in our experience. The trip to the vineyard for lunch was incredible.

Excellent Tuscan Adventure - Loved our Tuscan tour with Towns of Italy. Our driver and tour leader Gabriele was brilliant. He was personable & knowledgeable, chatting as we drove about our surroundings and the places we were to visit. The stops were some of the best Tuscany has to offer. Highly recommend booking day trips with Towns of Italy!

Small group tour well worth it - My wife and I enjoyed this Small Group tour, 8 people max. The tour company has a easy to find meet up location to start trip. Francesca was our driver for the day and all 8 people fit comfortable in the van. First stop was Siena, where a tour guide walked us around the city. San Gimignano we walked around on own. Had lunch(plenty of pasta) and wine tasting at cool winery. Learned about types and process of making wine. Can't wait for our case of wine to arrive home. The trip was 8 am to 7 pm but it went fast.

Wonderful tour with wonderful people - Excellent tour with excellent guides. Pia (local guide in Siena) and our driver/guide Tanya were incredible and so much fun. This tour squeezes a lot into the day but never feels rushed. Plenty of opportunity to enjoy the local food, wine, and coffee. Lunch at Castillo Sonnino not to be missed.

Fabulous day!!! - This trip was our favorite day in Italy! We learned about so much history and tradition in Sienna, got to experience the midevil village of San Gimignano and its breathtaking views of Tuscany, an incredible drive through the Tuscany region, a wonderful lunch and wine tasting experience in Chianti followed by the beautiful leaning tower of Pisa. All guided by a knowledgeable and friendly English speaking, but native tour guide Daria (she was the best!)! If you have this opportunity don't pass it up, you will have no regrets!

Great day out albeit tiring by the end - Visiting all the towns was fantastic except the was envisaging the lunch at the winery to have a nice view of the Tuscan valley! The drive was tiring but that’s no fault of the tour operator. All in all I’m glad I chose this tour

Average Tour - Tour had some good and some not so good aspects. Driver was good. Time spent in Sienna too short. It would have been great if possible to have pre arranged tickets for climbing the tower in Pizza. No tour guide in Pizza and San Gimignano so if you wanted one this is not your tour. Overall average tour probably better out there for the same price.

Not worth it - We’ve enjoyed several tours with Towns of Italy, but unfortunately this one missed the mark. The walking tour of Siena was very good and visiting San Gimignano was nice, though less than an hour there was not enough to explore and enjoy this place. Our guide told us lunch would be at 1:45pm so we thought we shouldn’t buy much food in San Gimignano; however, we didn’t arrive at the winery until 2:05pm, then they announced we’d be going on a tour of the winery before lunch - even though we were all extremely hungry. Lunch didn’t start until 2:45pm. The itinerary promised a wine tasting, but we were only given two small serves of wine with lunch over a long period of time, plus a dessert liqueur. I have dietary requirements (gluten free, no onion, no garlic) which was confirmed with the company well in advance, two days before and on the day of the trip. However when lunch came around they still seemed surprised when I mentioned it. While everyone else was served a veggie lasagna, my “traditional Tuscan lunch” was a bowl of chickpeas and a bowl of potatoes with salt and pepper. Very disappointed, would not recommend this tour especially if you have dietary requirements. Better to stay in Florence and explore more of the beautiful scenery and multitude of restaurants there instead.
