Although Siena is a small town, there is so much to see if you are willing to take the time to look around the corner. This tour is a great way to get an overview of the whole city as well as taste various specialties of the region. The tour takes a little over 2 hours. There is a lot of walking, but the pace is just right. Maria Elena is a delightful host. While guiding us through the city, she provided us with the history and stories of Siena, all the while letting us taste various delicacies along the way. We learned of the Palio, the Contrades, as well as the history of Siena. After the tour, we knew exactly where we wanted to go to further explore this fascinating city. I highly recommend this tour! Ask for Maria Elena.
What an amazing afternoon we had with Stella on our private food walking tour. We tasted sweets, savoury and a variety of different wines from the region. A great way to start our stay in Siena to get our bearings. Thank you Stella!
My husband, teenage son and teenage nephew had a great food tour experience with Stella. She is knowledgeable, kind, friendly and lots of fun. Stella explained lots about Siena's history and the Palio as we walked leisurely around the city, and we liked that she personalized the tour by both giving us her own family's history/perspective, and that she gave us options on what we wanted to see and eat. Stella also patiently answered all of our questions. We loved all of the food stops, especially the meat/cheeses and the pizza! I highly recommend Stella!
We had a wonderful morning with Gaia. She kindly collected us from our Siena hotel & drove us (very skilfully) to Il Pino, a beautiful organic farm & vineyard near Poggibonsi in the Tuscan countryside. We enjoyed a short walking tour of the farm seeing olive trees, vineyards, sheep & cattle. An incredible panoramic view towards San Gimignano was a highlight. An early lunch of delicious farm produced & homemade olives, bread, delicious olive oil, cheeses & cured meats plus pasta & Pappa al Pomodoro was served to us by Mannino family members in there fabulous kitchen / dining loft. We tasted the wineries two wines & particularly enjoyed the Chianti. After coffee & a fond farewell Gaia drove us back through the stunning & picturesque countryside to Siena. Gaia was great company & very easy to talk to. The conversation flowed effortlessly. A fabulous trip.
